The Finest of the Wheat No. 2 ‎#224

224. Oh, the Power of Jesus

1 The love of God, this shoreless sea,
Whose glories ‘round me roll,
Is just as wide and full and free,
Since love has filled my soul.

Refrain:
Oh, the pow’r of Jesus,
The mighty pow’r of Jesus,
Oh, the pow’r of Jesus,
That saves me now from sin.

2 It has not dimmed His radiance bright,
To cast on me a ray,
As atoms in the sunbeam’s light,
Hurt not the king of day. [Refrain]

3 Tho’ faith may seem a little link,
It holds me on to God;
While trusting Him I cannot sink,
He faints not ‘neath my load. [Refrain]

4 Without a fear, my all I leave,
On this foundation great;
And dread not that the rock will give,
Beneath my little weight. [Refrain]

5 No doubts nor fears this heart shall grieve,
Beneath the cleansing blood;
I know, I know whom I believe,
And trust the mighty God. [Refrain]
