O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

Author: S. Trevor Francis Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #27 (1976) Lyrics: 1 O the deep, deep love of Jesus, Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free! Rolling as a mighty ocean In its fullness over me. Underneath me, all around me, Is the current of Thy love; Leading onward, leading homeward To my glorious rest above. 2 O the deep, deep love of Jesus, Spread His praise from shore to shore! How He loveth, ever loveth, Changeth never, nevermore; How He watches o'er His loved ones, Died to call them all His own; How for them He intercedeth, Watcheth o'er them from the throne. 3 O the deep, deep love of Jesus, Love of ev'ry love the best; 'Tis an ocean vast of blessing, 'Tis a haven sweet of rest, O the deep, deep love of Jesus, 'Tis a Heav'n of Heav'ns to me; And it lifts me up to glory, For it lifts me up to Thee. Amen. Topics: Christ His love; Christ Refuge; God The Son; Heaven; Praise; Worship Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: EBENEZER (Ton-Y-Botel)
