Author: F. R. Havergal Hymnal: Christ in Song #301 (1908) First Line: I know I love thee better, Lord Refrain First Line: The half has never yet been told Lyrics: 1 I know I love thee better, Lord,
Than any earthly joy;
For thou hast given me the peace
Which nothing can destroy.
Chorus:
The half has never yet been told,
Of love so full and free;
The half has never yet been told,
The blood it cleanseth me.
2 I know that thou art nearer still
Than any earthly throng;
And sweeter is the tho't of thee
Than any lovely song. [Chorus]
3 Thou hast put gladness in my heart;
Then may I well be glad;
Without the secret of thy love
I could not but be sad. [Chorus]
4 O Saviour, precious Saviour, mine!
What will thy presence be,
If such a life of joy can crown
Our walk on earth with thee?
