O, How I Love Jesus

Verse 1 ~

There is a name I love to hear,
     I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in my ear,
     The sweetest name on earth.

Refrain ~

O, how I love Jesus,
     O, how I love Jesus,
O, how I love Jesus
     Because He first Loved me!

Verse 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.

Verse 3 ~

It tells of One whose loving heart
     Can feel my deepest woe,
Who in each sorrow bears a part
     That none can bear below.

Verse 4 ~

It bids my trembling heart rejoice;
     It dries each rising tear;
It tells me, in a “still small voice,”
     To trust and never fear.

Verse 5 ~

This Name shall shed its fragrance still
     Along this thorny road,
Shall sweetly smooth the rugged hill
     That leads me up to God.

Verse 6 ~

And there with all the blood-bought throng,
     From sin and sorrow free,
I’ll sing the new eternal song
     Of Jesus’ love for me.
