2. Jesus my all to heaven is gone
(Jesus, the light of the world)
He whom my faith, my hope's upon
(Jesus, the light of the world)


Comes from a John Cennick hymn from 1743

Jesus, my all, to heaven is gone,
He Whom I fix my hopes upon;
His track I see, and I'll pursue
The narrow way, till Him I view.
The way the holy prophets went,
The road that leads from banishment,
The King's highway of holiness,
I'll go, for all His paths are peace.

There are several settings in the
Sacred Harp. Most have a similar structure of couplets and choruses.
