The United Methodist Hymnal

O How I Love Jesus

1.	There is a name I love to hear, 
	I love to sing its worth; 
	it sounds like music in my ear, 
	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 his precious blood, 
	the sinner's 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]
