262. 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 mine ear,
The sweetest Name on earth.

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 of a Saviour’s love;
Who died to set me free.
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner’s perfect plea. [Refrain]

3 It tells me what my Father hath
In store for ev'ry day
And ,tho' I tread a darksome path,
Yields sunshine all the way. [Refrain]

4 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]
