Text:Love of Jesus
Tune:[There is no love like the love of Jesus]
Composer:T. O. Perkins

59. Love of Jesus

1 There is no love like the love of Jesus,
Never to fade or fall,
Till into the fold of the peace of God,
He has gathered us all.

Refrain:
Jesus' love, precious love,
Boundless, and pure, and free;
O turn to that love, weary, wandering soul,
Jesus pleadeth for thee.

2 There is no heart like the heart of Jesus,
Filled with a tender love;
No throb nor throe that our hearts can know,
But he feels it above. [Refrain]

3 O let us hark to the voice of Jesus,
O may we never roam,
Till safe we rest on his loving breast,
In the dear heavenly home. [Refrain]
