Oh How I Love Jesus

F. Whitfield, 1855, Music 19th Century

​

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.


O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because he first loved me!

​

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.

​

O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because he first loved me!

​

It tells of one whose loving heart
can feel my deepest woe;
who in each sorrow bears a part
that none can bear below.

​

O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because he first loved me!
