Since the Fullness of His Love Came In

E. E. Hewitt (1916) • English

Primary Scripture: Isaiah 9:2

Verse 1

Once my way was dark and dreary, For my heart was full of sin, But the sky is bright and cheery, Since the fullness of His love came in.

Chorus

I can never tell how much I love Him, I can never tell His love for me, For it passeth human measure, Like a deep, unfathomed sea; ’Tis redeeming love in Christ my Savior, In my soul the heav’nly joys begin; And I live for Jesus only, Since the fullness of His love came in.

Verse 2

There is grace for all the lowly, Grace to keep the trusting soul: Pow’r to cleanse and make me holy, Jesus shall my yielded life control.

Chorus

I can never tell how much I love Him, I can never tell His love for me, For it passeth human measure, Like a deep, unfathomed sea; ’Tis redeeming love in Christ my Savior, In my soul the heav’nly joys begin; And I live for Jesus only, Since the fullness of His love came in.

Verse 3

Let me spread abroad the story, Other souls to Jesus win; For the cross is now my glory, Since the fullness of His love came in.

Chorus

I can never tell how much I love Him, I can never tell His love for me, For it passeth human measure, Like a deep, unfathomed sea; ’Tis redeeming love in Christ my Savior, In my soul the heav’nly joys begin; And I live for Jesus only, Since the fullness of His love came in.
