I Love Thee

by John H. Kurzenknabe

I love Thee, my Saviour, Thy Name I adore,
Thy kind loving favor I ever implore;
My weak hands without Thee no good work can do,
I pray Thee then, ever their strength to renew.

I love Thee, my Saviour, and Thy precious love
Assures me of pardon and peace from a-bove;
My sins Thou forgivest, Thy mercy is free
To all that believe and will come unto Thee.

I love Thee, my Saviour, thy love is divine;
In love Thou wilt keep me, forevermore thine;
No evil shall harm me, for Thou are my guide,
Thy hand now shall turn ev'ry peril aside.

Chorus

I love Thee! I Love Thee! Thy name is so sweet;
And Thy love no mortal nor tongue can repeat.
