O Jesus, My Saviour, to Thee I Submit
Author: John A. Granade, 1770-1806 Hymnal: Gloria Deo #382 (1901) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, my Saviour, to Thee I submit,
With love and thanksgiving fall down at Thy feet;
In sacrifice offer my soul, flesh and blood;
Thou art my Redeemer that brought me to God.
2 I love Thee, I love Thee, I love Thee, my Lord,
I love Thee my Saviour; I love Thee, my God;
I love Thee, I love Thee, and that Thou dost know,
But how much I love Thee, I never can show.
3 I’m happy, I’m happy, oh, wondrous account!
My joys are immortal, I stand on the mount!
I gaze on my treasure, and long to be there,
With Jesus and angels, my kindred so dear.
4 O Jesus, my Saviour, with Thee I am blest!
My life and salvation, my joy and my rest!
Thy name be my theme, and Thy love be my song,
Thy grace shall inspire both my heart and my tongue.
5 Oh, who’s like my Saviour? He’s Salem’s bright King,
He smiles, and He loves me, and learns me to sing,
I’ll praise Him, I’ll praise Him, with notes loud and shrill,
While rivers of pleasure my spirit do fill. Topics: Submission Languages: English Tune Title: MARK

O Jesus, my Saviour, to thee I submit
Hymnal: A Collection of Spiritual Songs and Hymns #II (1801) Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, my Saviour, to thee I submit,
With love and thanksgiving fall down at thy feet!
In sacrifice offer, my soul, flesh and blood;
Thou art my Redeemer, my Lord and my God.
2 I love thee, I love thee, I love thee my Love!
I love thee my Saviour, I love thee my Dove!
I love thee, I love thee, and that thou dost know,
But how much I love thee, I never can show.
3 All human expressions are empty and vain,
They cannot unriddle the heavenly flame!
I'm sure if the tongue of an angel I had,
I could not the myst'ry completely describe.
4 I’m happy, I’m happy, O wond'rous account!
My days are immortal, I stand on the mount!
I gaze on my treasure, and long to be there,
With Angels my kindred, and Jesus my dear.
5 O Jesus, my Saviour, in thee I am blest:
My life and my treasure, my joy and my rest.
Thy grace be my theme, and thy name be my song,
Thy love doth inspire my heart and my tongue!
6 Thy fullness reveal, thy promise fulfil,
O take and direct me to the heavenly hill;
There wrapt in thy love, to be lost in thy charms,
With Angels transported, and freed from all harms.
7 O who is like Jesus, he’s Salem’s bright king!
He smiles and he loves me, he learns me to sing,
I’ll praise him, I’ll praise him, with notes loud and shrill,
While rivers of pleasure, my spirit doth fill.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "O Jesus, my Saviour, to Thee I submit" in The Choice In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Ordained a Methodist circuit riding preacher, Granade was referred to by the Nashville Banner as the "wild man of Goose Creek" (Sumner County, Tennessee) and was also variously known as "the poet of the backwoods" and "the Wild Man of Holston." Granade worked in part in the world of shape-note singing in the Shenandoah Valley, where a variety of musical sources, both sacred and profane, were at play. His works include:
