I lay my sins on Jesus

1

I lay my sins on Jesus,The spotless Lamb of God;He bears them all, and frees usFrom the accursed load.

2

I lay my wants on Jesus,All fullness dwells in him,He healeth my diseases,He doth my soul redeem.

3

I lay my griefs on Jesus,My burdens and my cares;He from them all releases,He all my sorrow shares.

4

I long to be like Jesus,Meek, loving, lowly, mild;I long to be like Jesus,The Father's holy child.
