52. I know I love Thee better, Lord

1 I know I love Thee better, Lord,
Than any earthly joy,
For Thou hast given me the peace
Which nothing can destroy.

Chorus:
The half has never yet been told,
Of love so full and free.
The half has never yet been told,
His blood now cleanseth me.

2 I know that Thou art nearer still
Than any earthly throng.
And sweet is the thought of Thee,
Than any lovely song. [Chorus]

3 O Saviour, precious Saviour mine!
What will Thy presence be,
If such a life of joy can crown
Our walk on earth with Thee? [Chorus]
