I Love to Hear of Jesus

Come

talk to me of Je­sus

That lov­ing friend di­vine;

For what on earth so pre­cious

To this lone heart of mine?

And if amid the care­less

My feet be­gin to rove

Then talk to me of Je­sus

And tell me of His love.

I love to hear of Je­sus

I love to hear of Je­sus

I love to hear of Je­sus

Of Je­sus and His love.

Come

sing to me of Je­sus

When life is ebb­ing fast

And all the joys and sor­rows

Will soon be ov­er­past;

When

with their beams of glo­ry

The heav’ns shall glow ab­ove

Then sing to me of Je­sus

And tell me of His love.

Before the throne of Je­sus

Where saints in glo­ry stand

To tell re­demp­tion’s sto­ry

I’ll join the chor­al band;

And with the sweet­est mu­sic

That ev­er heart can move

Oh

then I’ll sing of Je­sus

And praise Him for His love.
