To die is gain, and yet I die to live. Eternal peace and life is what he died to give. And when this paper's gone, and the world's no more, what was I dying for, and who was I living for? His name is Jesus, he's the peace that always fits the puzzled hearts of all men.
He is Jesus, he's the maker of this temple, the healer of my heart, and he rescued me from sin. And now to live is Christ, it's just to live indeed. I truly had no life until he lived in me.
And now I'll sing sincere of his amazing grace, and I will live for him to whom belongs my faith. Oh, his name is Jesus, he's the peace that always fits the puzzled hearts of all men. Oh, he is Jesus, he's the maker of this temple, the healer of my heart, and he rescued me from sin.
He is Jesus, he's the peace that always fits the puzzled hearts of all men. Oh, he is Jesus, he's the maker of this temple, the healer of my heart, and he rescued me from sin.
