Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal ‎#248

248. O, How I Love Jesuks

1 There is a Name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in my ears,
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 a Savior’s blood,
The sinners’ perfect plea. [Refrain]

3 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]
