There is a name I love to hear,

I love to sing its worth;

It sounds like music in mine ear,

The sweetest name on earth.

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.

It tells me what my Father hath

In store for ev'ry day;

And tho' I tread a darksome path,

Yields sunshine all the way.

It tells of One whose loving heart

Can feel my deepest woe;

Who in each sorrow bears a part,

That none can bear below.

O how I love Jesus,

O how I love Jesus,

O how I love Jesus,

Because He first loved me.
