Great Tabernacle Hymns ‎#26

26. Nothing But the Love of Jesus

1 What can make this sinful world to blossom as the rose?
Nothing but the love of Jesus;
Where can balm be found to heal its sorrows and its woes?
Nothing but the love of Jesus.

Chorus:
Love that wipes the tears from sorrow’s weeping eyes;
Love that lights the gloom and points us to the skies;
All in earth or heav’n that fully satisfies,
Nothing but the love of Jesus

2 What can turn the Christless millions from their sins away?
Nothing but the love of Jesus;
What can change their heathen darkness into bright noonday?
Nothing but the love of Jesus. [Chorus]

3 What will satisfy the heart when earthly comforts fail?
Nothing but the love of Jesus;
What will light the way when passing thro’ death’s gloomy vale?
Nothing but the love of Jesus. [Chorus]

4 What are angels singing now around the heav’nly throne?
Nothing but the love of Jesus;
What the theme of saints redeemed when in the song we join?
Nothing but the love of Jesus. [Chorus]
