Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art, Thou hast fully captured my heart; None compares with Thee, none on earth or heav’n, God yet man, most beautiful One! How I longed to vanish in Thee When Thy tender voice came to me. All past loves forsaking most joyfully, I’d just love Thee — wholeheartedly. |
| Who in all the world is as fair as Thee? Or who else can love so romantic’ly? Oh, most holy One, now You live in me! Jesus Lord, I deeply love Thee! No more trusting self, nor deceived I’d be; I’d put off my self, just be filled with Thee; Oh, let all apart from Thee fade and flee; My one love, my best love, is Thee. |

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art; I was once rebellious and hard, But I drop it all now to come to Thee, Self forsake, that like Thee I’d be. When I live, be it Thou, I pray, Not self’s will, but God’s I’d obey; To Thine heart attuned, Thy delight I’d seek; No more struggling, fully at peace. |

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art; We two never, ever will part; Thy dear presence is all my breath and might; Thy dear smile is all my delight. I would pour my heart out to Thee, Love Thee, serve Thee, joined utterly; My eternal portion, dear Lord, is Thee; My one hope, Thy coming to see. |

1. Tuhan Yesus Kau kasihku, Kau rebut s’luruh hatiku.
Sia-pa s’perti Kau, yang cantik sungguh.
Tak satu pun tandingi-Mu.
Saat ku dengar sua-ra-Mu, berbisik dalam hatiku.
Tersingkir se-mua, pen-ca-ri-an-ku,
Hilang s’mua bangga diriku.
Koor :
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang cantik sungguh.
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang manis sungguh.
Kau berhak dapatkan s’mua cintaku.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu.
Tak lagi tertipu p’rasaanku.
Tak lagi percaya si-tua-si-ku.
Ku hanya tahu mengasihi-Mu.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu
2. Tuhan Yesus, Kau kasihku,
Ku buang s’mua lega hatiku.
Ku suka jadi budak cinta-Mu.
Ku senang menaati-Mu.
Ku tetap pilih jalan-Mu.
Meski sulit ta-at-i-Mu.
Ku hanya dambakan perkenan-Mu.
Cinta-Mu, damai bagiku.
Koor :
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang cantik sungguh.
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang manis sungguh.
Kau berhak dapatkan s’mua cintaku.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu.
Tak lagi tertipu p’rasaanku.
Tak lagi percaya si-tua-si-ku.
Ku hanya tahu mengasihi-Mu.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu
3. Tuhan Yesus, Kau kasihku,
Ku tak-kan meninggalkan-Mu.
Jangan Kau simpan, senyum wajah-Mu.
Ku hanya ma-u hadir-Mu.
Ku ungkap s’mua kepada-Mu.
Kaulah kasih, ke-puas-an-ku.
Hingga kekal Kaulah ba-gi-an-ku.
Ku hanya ma-u di-ri-Mu.
Koor :
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang cantik sungguh.
Sia-pa s’perti Kau yang manis sungguh.
Kau berhak dapatkan s’mua cintaku.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu.
Tak lagi tertipu p’rasaanku.
Tak lagi percaya si-tua-si-ku.
Ku hanya tahu mengasihi-Mu.
Tuhan Yesus ku cinta-Mu

This hymn reminds me to love the Lord the most
San Francisco, California, United States
Jesus Lord, You’re my best love!
I’d put off my self, to just be filled with You / Not self’s will, but Yours I’d obey / Thy dear presence is all my breath and might / Thy dear smile is all my delight.

1 Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art,
Thou hast fully captured my heart;
There is none in heav’n nor on earth like Thee,
With thy beauty none can compete
When Thy voice first came to my ear,
Whisp’ring in my heart words most dear,
All past loves and aims lost their charm for me,
All my boasts so vain now appear.
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee?
Who so full of worth, who so fair and sweet?
Only Thou art worthy my love to win,
Oh Lord Jesus , How I love Thee!
No more I who live, no more self-deceived,
No more in the self’s, world indulged to be,
Deep within I know you’re my only love,
My best love in none else but Thee!
2 Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art,
Rid all rocks that hide in my heart;
Gladly I Thy bondslave of love would be,
One heart, one will ever with Thee
Though my heart is oft not subdued, ,
Still Thy way alone it would choose;
All I yearn for is what Thy heart desires,
In Thy love alone peace I find.
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee?
Who so full of worth, who so fair and sweet?
Only Thou art worthy my love to win,
Oh Lord Jesus , How I love Thee!
No more I who live, no more self-deceived,
No more in the self’s, world indulged to be,
Deep within I know you’re my only love,
My best love in none else but Thee!
3 Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
Ne’er again from Thee I’d depart;
Never hide Thy dear, smiling face from me.
To none else I’d cling Lord, but Thee.
To Thee, Lord, my all I outpour,
How Thy love my heart deeply fills,
My eternal portion, mosr precious Lord,
None but Thee I want evermore.
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee?
Who so full of worth, who so fair and sweet?
Only Thou art worthy my love to win,
Oh Lord Jesus , How I love Thee!
No more I who live, no more self-deceived,
No more in the self’s, world indulged to be,
* Deep within I know you’re my only love,
My best love in none else but Thee!
