O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus!

Verse 1

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free— Rolling as a mighty ocean In its fullness over me! Underneath me, all around me Is the current of His love— Leading onward, leading homeward To His glorious rest above.

Verse 2

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— Spread His praise from shore to shore! Praise His mercy, praise His goodness; Praise His love forevermore. How He watcheth o’er His loved ones, Died to call them all His own; How for them He intercedeth, Watcheth o’er them from His throne.

Verse 3

Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— Love of ev’ry love the best— ’Tis an ocean vast of blessing; ’Tis a haven sweet of rest. Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— ’Tis a heav’n of heav’ns to me; And it lifts me up to glory, Lifts me up eternally.
