55. When I Think How He Loved Me.

1 When I think of how He loved me,
When He left His home on high,
To be mocked, despised, forsaken,
That my soul should never die:

Chorus:
I will praise, forever praise Him,
I will glorify His name;
O the wonder that He loves me,
Precious Jesus, still the same!

2 When I think of how He loved me,
In the dark Gethsemane,
Of the agony He suffered,
Wrestling there in prayer for me: [Chorus]

3 When I think of how He loved me,
"Greater love" could never be,
How He bore my sins and sorrows,
On the cross of Calvary: [Chorus]

4 When I think of how He loved me,
While a sinner far astray,
Let my love find sweet expression,
Serving Him from day to day. [Chorus]
