Verse 1
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.
Verse 2
O the
deep, deep love
of Jesus, spread
His praise
from shore
to shore! How
He loveth, ever
loveth, changeth
never, nevermore! 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!
Verse 3
O the
deep, deep love
of Jesus, love
of every love
the best! 'Tis
an ocean full
of blessing, 'tis
a haven giving
rest! O the
deep, deep love
of Jesus, 'tis
a heav'n of
heav'ns to
me; And it
lifts me up
to glory, for
it lifts
me up
to Thee!
