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!
2 It tells me of a Savior'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 every day,
and, though 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)
