Sweeter than all is the love of the Sav­ior,
Dearer by far than earth’s jew­els so rare,
Flooding my soul by the grace of His fa­vor,
Filling my heart with the spir­it of pray­er.

Refrain

Pardoning grace the Mas­ter has spok­en,
Pardoning grace has now made me whole;
On Cal­v’ry’s brow His poor heart was brok­en—
Pardoning grace for my sin sick soul.

Wonderful thought! how it fills me with sing­ing!
Jesus has spok­en, His word is di­vine;
I can re­joice, for His mer­cy is bring­ing
Life that is bless­èd and sweet in­to mine.

Refrain

I am con­tent, for I know He is near me,
Keeping me pure by His won­der­ful grace,
Whispering words full of com­fort to cheer me,
Lighting my soul with a glimpse of His face.

Refrain

There is a re­fuge be­yond pain and sor­row!
When He shall call me to dwell with Him there
I shall be­hold, in a bright­er to­mor­row,
Jesus my king, all His glo­ry to share.

Refrain
