My transports to control;
Thy love is like a burning fire
Within my very soul.
Refrain:
O Jesus! Jesus! dearest Lord!
Forgive me if I say,
For very love, Thy sacred name
A thousand times a day.
2 O wonderful! that Thou shouldst let
So vile a heart as mine
Love Thee with such a love as this,
And make so free with Thine. [Refrain]
3 Lord, Thou to me art all in all,
My honor and my wealth,
My heart’s desire, my body’s strength,
My soul’s eternal health. [Refrain] Topics: Saving Love Languages: English Tune Title: [I love Thee, Lord, and know not how]
