Oh, Precious Love of Jesus

Author: John L. Newkirk Hymnal: Songs for Work and Worship #160 (1900) Topics: Love Of God Lyrics: 1 Oh, precious love of Jesus; Oh, matchless love divine; That stoops in wondrous mercy To reach a soul like mine When none could pity; When none could save From deepest sin, he took me And sweetest peace he gave, From deepest sin, he took me And sweetest peace he gave. 2 Oh, precious love of Jesus I’m happy all the day; And never does he leave me One step along the way. The path is rugged; For weary feet, I lean upon the Savior My safe, and sure retreat, I lean upon the Savior My safe, and sure retreat. 3 The precious love of Jesus Shall ever be my song; Thro’out the countless ages ‘Twill never be too long. When we reach heaven, That home above, We then shall know the wonders Of his redeeming love, We then shall know the wonders Of his redeeming love.

High in the heavens His throne is fixed forever, His kingdom rules o'er all from pole to pole; Bless ye the Lord through all His wide dominion, Bless His most holy Name, O thou my soul.
