Text: | I Know I Love Thee Better, Lord. |
Author: | Frances R. Havergal |
Tune: | [I know I love Thee better, Lord] |
Composer: | R. E. Hudson |
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,
The blood--it cleanseth me!
2 I know that Thou art nearer still
Than any earthly throng;
And sweeter is the tho't of Thee
Than any lovely song. [Chorus]
3 Thou hast put gladness in my heart;
Then may I well be glad!
Without the secret of Thy love
I could not but be sad. [Chorus]
4 O Savior, precious Savior mine!
What will Thy presence be,
If such a life of joy can crown
Our walk on earth with Thee? [Chorus]
