I will sing the love of Jesus,
Greater love was never known;
Yielding up His life for sinners,
Oh! what love to me was shown.
Refrain
I will praise my great Redeemer,
As my days are on the wing;
I will sing of Him who saves me,
I will magnify the Lord my king.
I will sing the words of Jesus,
Words of life from lips divine;
Full of comfort, joy and courage,
Precious to this soul of mine.
Refrain
I will sing the grace of Jesus,
Grace my heart may now receive;
He by faith will seal my pardon,
If His promise I believe.
Refrain
I will sing the name of Jesus,
Name of all most dear to me;
By the ransomed host in glory
Shall His name exalted be.
