I Love Him

Verse 1

Gone from my heart the world with all its charm; Now thro' the blood I'm saved from all alarms; Down at the cross my heart is bending low; The precious blood of Jesus cleanses white as snow.

Chorus

I love Him, I love Him, Because He first loved me, And purchased my salvation on Calv’ry’s tree.

Verse 2

Once I was lost, and 'way down deep in sin; Once was a slave to passions within; Once was afraid to meet an angry God, But now I'm cleansed from ev'ry stain thro' Jesus’ blood.

Verse 3

Once I was bound, but now I am set free; Once I was blind, but now the light I see; Once I was dead, but now in Christ I live, To tell the world around the peace that He doth give.
