The living Stones Quartet sing a beautiful rendition of the Christian hymn ‘My Jesus I love Thee.’
The Bible says in all things God works for the good of those whom He called; for those who love Him. And as God’s children, we know that we love Him because He first loved us!
‘My Jesus I Love Thee’ is a poem written by William Ralph Featherston in 1864 when he was 16 years old.
In 1876 Adoniram Gordon added music to Featherston’s poem, Featherston died at the age of 27, well before his poem had become a well-known inspirational hymn which is his only published work.
My Jesus I love Thee, I know Thou art mine
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign
My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art Thou
If ever I loved Thee my Jesus ’tis now
I love Thee because Thou has first loved me
And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow
If ever I loved Thee my Jesus ’tis now
Our God is always faithful, and if we look at the past, we can see that He has been with us and has been working in our lives even when we didn’t know it.
