I love Jesus, for He saved my soul; From His cross the tides of mercy roll; Long and far He sought me, when astray; Now He leads me in His own right way.
Refrain: I love Jesus; He’s my King; Of His mercy I will sing; I will follow in His paths of light, Till I see Him in His glory bright.
I love Jesus, for He’s always near, Ever ready with a word of cheer; Every day, and every passing hour, I will trust Him for His keeping pow’r.
I love Jesus when the joy-beams glow; Love Him, when the stormy tempests blow; I will praise Him while the ages roll; Hallelujah! for He saved my soul.
