Martyn Lloyd-Jones singing with his congregation
Congregational singing
Westminster Chapel, London
Text: Augustus M. Toplady | Tune: TICHFIELD (Richardson)

Object of my first desire
Jesus crucified for me
All to happiness aspire
Only to be found in Thee
Thee to please, and Thee to know
Constitute my bliss below
Thee to see, and Thee to love
Constitute my bliss above

Lord, it is not life to live
If Thy presence Thou deny
Lord, if Thou Thy presence give
’Tis no longer death to die
Source and giver of repose
Only from Thy smile it flows
Peace and happiness are Thine
Mine they are, if Thou art mine

Whilst I feel Thy love to me
Every object teems with joy
May I ever walk with Thee
For ’tis bliss without alloy
Let me but Thyself possess
Total sum of happiness
Real bliss I then shall prove
Heaven below and Heaven above
