The New Church Hymnal ‎#69

69. Oh How I Love Jesus

1 There is a name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in my ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
It tells me of a Savior's love
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner's perfect plea.

Refrain:
Oh! How I love Jesus!
Oh! How I love Jesus!
Oh! How I love Jesus,
Because He first loved me!

2 It tells me what my Father has
In store for ev'ry day;
And tho' I walk a darkened path,
It gives sunshine all the way.
It tells of One whose loving heart
Can feel my deepest woe;
Who in each sorrow bears a part
That none can bear below. [Refrain]
