One is kind above all others, Oh, how He loves! His is love beyond a brother’s, Oh, how He loves! Earthly friends may fail or leave us, One day soothe, the next day grieve us, But this friend will ne’er deceive us, Oh, how He loves!
’Tis eternal life to know Him, Oh, how He loves! Think, oh think, how much we owe Him, Oh, how He loves! With His precious blood He bought us, In the wilderness He sought us, To His fold He safely brought us, Oh, how He loves!
Blessed Jesus! would you know Him? Oh, how He loves! Give yourself entirely to Him, Oh, how He loves! Is it sin that pains or grieves you? Unbelief or trials seize you? Jesus can from all release you, Oh, how He loves!
Love this friend: He longs to save you, Oh, how He loves! All through life He will not leave you, Oh, how He loves! Think no more of friendships hollow, Take His easy yoke and follow; Jesus carries all your sorrow, Oh, how He loves!
All your sins shall be forgiven, Oh, how He loves! Backward shall your foes be driven, Oh, how He loves! Best of blessings He’ll provide you, Naught but good shall e’er betide you, Safe to glory He will guide you, Oh, how He loves!
