The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration ‎#212

212. O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

1 O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me.

2 Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of His love;
Leading onward, leading homeward
To my glorious rest above.

3 O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
Love of ev'ry love the best;
'Tis an ocean vast of blessing,
'Tis the source of peace and rest.

4 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.

5 O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
Spread His praise from shore to shore;
Sing of His greatness, sing of His goodness,
Sing of His love forevermore.
