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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain
