This hymn has a unique tune.

 

 1 

There is a name I love to hear,

   I love to sing its worth;

It sounds like music in mine ear,

   The sweetest name on earth.

 

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Because He first loved me!

 

 2 

It tells me of a Savior's love,

   Who died to set me free;

It tells me of His precious blood,

   The sinner's perfect plea.

 

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Because He first loved me!

 

 3 

It tells me what my Father hath,

   In store for every day,

And though I tread a darksome path,

   Yields sunshine all the way.

 

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Because He first loved me!

 

 4 

It tells of One whose loving heart

   Can feel my deepest woe,

Who in each sorrow bears a part

   That none can bear below.

 

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Oh, how I love Jesus,

Because He first loved me!
