There is a name I love to hear, 
I love to sing its worth; 
it sounds like music in my ear, 
the sweetest name on earth.  

Refrain:

O how I love Jesus, 
O how I love Jesus, 
O how I love Jesus, 
because he first loved me!

It tells me of a Saviour's love, 
who died to set me free; 
it tells me of his precious blood, 
the sinner's perfect plea.
(Refrain)

It tells of one whose loving heart 
can feel my deepest woe; 
who in each sorrow bears a part 
that none can bear below.
(Refrain)
