Verse 1
Gladly would I leave behind me
All the pleasure I have known
To pursue surpassing treasures
At the throne of God the Son
Worthy of unending worship
Love and loveliness is He
By His precious death were millions
From the jaws of death set free
Verse 2
Gladly would I give to Jesus
All affection everything
For the washing of His mercy
Makes my ransomed heart to sing
Holy holy is the chorus
Rising up from those who see
Christ exalted bright and burning
Full of pow'r and purity
Chorus
Where else can I go
Jesus You're the One
That I was made to know
What else can I do
Jesus You're my all
I gladly run to You
Verse 3
Gladly would I flee temptations
For their troubles fill my life
Turn and seek my God and Savior
For His goodness satisfies
Earthly treasures all are passing
Thieves break in and rust destroys
But in God are awesome splendor
Love and everlasting joys
Ending
Gladly would I give to Jesus
All affection everything
For the washing of His mercy
Makes my ransomed heart to sing
