O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

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!

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!

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 heav­en of heav­ens to me;

And it lifts me up to glo­ry

For it lifts me up to Thee!
