O 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 Thy love;
Leading onward, leading homeward
To Thy glorious rest above.
O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
Spread His praise from shore to shore.
How He loveth, ever loveth,
Changeth never, never more;
How He watches o’er His loved ones;
Died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth,
Watcheth o’er them from the throne.
O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
Love of eve’ry love the best.
‘Tis an ocean vast of blessing,
‘Tis a haven sweet of rest;
O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
‘Tis a Heav’n of Heav’ns tome;
And it lifts me up to glory,
For it lifts me up to Thee.
For it lifts me up to glory,
For it lifts me unto Thee.
