O The Deep, Deep Love Of Jesus

by S. Trevor Francis

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 my 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 ev'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 on heav'ns to me;
And it lifts me up to glory
For it lifts me up to Thee.
