Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art

1
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art,
Thou hast fully captured my heart;
None compares with Thee, none on earth or heav’n,
God yet man, most beautiful One!
How I longed to vanish in Thee
When Thy tender voice came to me.
All past loves forsaking most joyfully,
I’d just love Thee — wholeheartedly.
 
Who in all the world is as fair as Thee?
Or who else can love so romantic’ly?
Oh, most holy One, now You live in me!
Jesus Lord, I deeply love Thee!
No more trusting self, nor deceived I’d be;
I’d put off my self, just be filled with Thee;
Oh, let all apart from Thee fade and flee;
My one love, my best love, is Thee.
2
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
I was once rebellious and hard,
But I drop it all now to come to Thee,
Self forsake, that like Thee I’d be.
When I live, be it Thou, I pray,
Not self’s will, but God’s I’d obey;
To Thine heart attuned, Thy delight I’d seek;
No more struggling, fully at peace.
3
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
We two never, ever will part;
Thy dear presence is all my breath and might;
Thy dear smile is all my delight.
I would pour my heart out to Thee,
Love Thee, serve Thee, joined utterly;
My eternal portion, dear Lord, is Thee;
My one hope, Thy coming to see.

I have heard lots of love songs and hymns - this ranked together with "Love with everlasting love," "All scenes alike engaging prove." Wonderful and marvellous - a true expression of the love of a believer unto our God!! Please also let me know who is the author and his/her testimony for this lovely song/hymn.

O, Lord Jesus, I praise You, that You're my best love. Make Yourself the Lord of my heart. Make nothing replace You in my heart.

"Whom do I have in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desires beside You".

Lord, I love You! I do love You!

Mi Jesus, mi primer amor

Sólo Tuyo es mi corazón,

Nada se compara a Ti en verdad,

Tan hermoso y bello Senor.

Cuando escucho el susurrar

De Tu hablar en mi corazón.

Todo amor y búsqueda queda atrás,

Mis jactancias, Qué vanas son!

Qué tan dulce en este universo es?

Qué tan bello en la tierra como Tu?

Eres digno Tu de todo mi amor,

Muy profundo, Te amo Jesús.

No seré igual, no me engañare,

Ni atrapado en mi mundo estaré,

Eres el mejor y único amor

Tu amor profundo en mi ser.

Mi Jesús, mi mejor amor,

Aunque es terco mi corazón,

Hazme esclavo hoy de Tu gran amor

Para amarte, yo Te deseo.

Aunque aveces Te rechaze,

Tu mirar siempre seguiré;

Complacerte es mi mayor placer,

Tu amor traspasa mi ser.

Mi Jesús, Te adoro Senor.

No me apartaré más de Ti.

Tu sonriente faz no se aleje de mi,

Tu presencia deseo seguir.

Hoy Te ofrezco mi corazon,

Eres Tu mi satisfaccion;

Mi porcion es Tu dulce ser poseer,

Mi deseo único eres.

I love to sing this song. It refreshes my love to Him. "Lord capture my heart to love only You. You are my eternal portion. Nothing compares to You. You are my only love and my best love." I love You, Lord Jesus.
