'When asked, what of Jesus I think!
Poem by John Newton



'When asked, what of Jesus I think!
Though still my best thoughts are but poor.
I say he's my meat and my drink,
My life and my strength and my store:
My Shepherd, my Husband, my Friend;
My Saviour from sin and from thrall;
My hope from beginning to end:
My portion, my Lord, and my ALL.'


John Newton
