For all the Lord has done for me,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him;
And for His grace so rich and free,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him.

Refrain

I ne­ver will cease to love Him,
My Sav­ior, my Sav­ior;
I ne­ver will cease to love Him,
He’s done so much for me.

He gives me strength for ev­ery day,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him;
He leads and guides me all the way,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him.

Though all the world His love ne­glect,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him;
I could not such a friend re­ject,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him.

While on my jour­ney here below,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him;
And when to that bright world I go,
I ne­ver will cease to love Him.
