Cântăre Come, Jesus, reign in me

1. For perfect love I long have groaned,

I would be wholly Thine;

Yes, I would have the Lord enthroned

In this poor heart of mine.



R: Come, Jesus, reign in me,

My heart Thy throne shall be;

Oh, tarry in Thy throne,

’Tis Thine, and Thine alone.



2. All foes cast out, let this poor heart

Be filled with love divine;

Securely fixed, no more to part

From this poor heart of mine.



3. Let perfect love my portion be,

To Thee my all resign;

O Holy One, come dwell in me,

And rule this heart of mine.



4. No earthly language can express

The love in Christ I find

’Tis boundless and it’s measureless,

In this poor heart of mine.
