Only Jesus

Only Jesus can redeem us,
When our hearts are stained with sin,
Only Jesus can convict us
When we’re full of self within.
Jesus knows our every weakness,
He alone could pay the fee.
Only Jesus Christ my savior
Had the blood that sets men free.

Only Jesus left his glory
And from heaven he came down,
Only Jesus chose a manger
And a cross, and not a crown.
Only Jesus loved this sinner
And denied himself for me,
So that I might be forgiven
And from sin’s death grip be free.

Only Jesus has the power
To break chains of sin and pain.
Only Jesus has the mercy
To restore our hearts again.
Only Jesus has the love
To give new life if we believe,
Only he could pay the ransom
With his life so we can live.

Only Jesus can restore you
When your life is lost and spent.
Only Jesus’ grace can help you –
None but he can change your bent.
Only Jesus loved us fully,
There’s no other God has sent.
Jesus gives us life eternal,
Walk by faith, from sin repent.

Only Jesus knows our weakness,
None but he can calm our fears,
Only Jesus feels our sorrows
And can blot away our tears.
Only Jesus gives us new life
When to him our lives we trust,
None but he can change a heart
That’s filled with pride, and hate, and lust.

Come to Jesus, oh my neighbors –
Time is short, and hell is near.
Come to Jesus, oh my family,
Do not close your eye nor ear.
Come to Jesus, those who hate men,
All on earth can Jesus know.
Come to Jesus all you Christians,
Not some building nor some show.

All to Jesus we must offer,
Give our lives to him alone,
Only Jesus bears our burdens,
Knows our needs, gives a new home.
Cast you idols far behind you
Fix your eyes on him alone –
Only Jesus, only Jesus,
Only Jesus on the throne.
