Lyrics

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.

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 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
because he first loved me!

It tells of one whose loving heart
can feel my deepest woe;
who in each sorrow bears a part
Because he first
Because he first loved Me
