96. How I Love Jesus

1 How I love Jesus
I never can tell,
For He first love me
Oh, so well,
Coming from Heav’n to suffer for me;
Wearing the thorns to make me free.
Jesus, my Savior,
Dying for me,
Shall I not love thro’
Eternity?

Refrain:
How I love Jesus I never can tell,
For He first loved me
Oh, so well.

2 How I love Jesus
I never can tell,
For He has freed from
Sorrow’s spell,
Make in my soul the joy-bells to ring;
Given me voice His praise to sing,
Jesus, so kind, so
Faithful to me,
In Thy dear presence
Happy I’ll be; [Refrain]

3 How I love Jesus
I never can tell,
Let the glad chorus
Praises swell,
Ring through the earth our glad jubilee,
Jesus, our Savior, made us free,
Worthy all honor,
Wisdom and pow’r,
Blessing and glory,
His every hour. [Refrain]
