Oh, How I Love Jesus

(C,*E 6/8 by Isacc Watts)

Verse 1

There is a name I love to hear;

I love to sing it's worth.

It sounds like music in mine ear,

The sweetest name on earth.


Verse 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.

Verse 3

It tells me what my Father hath,

In store for every day.

And though I tread a darksome path,

Yields sunshine all the way.

Verse 4

It tells me of One-whose loving heart,

Can feel my deepest woe.

Who in each sorrow bears a part,

That none can bear below.
