Lyrics

How tenĀ­derĀ­ly JeĀ­sus loves us,
With love so pure and free;
Down from His throne abĀ­ove us,
It comes to you and me.

Refrain

Oh, who can conĀ­ceive it?
Oh, who can beĀ­lieve it?
Oh, who will reĀ­ceive it,
This love so free?

His love so freeĀ­ly givĀ­en,
Was purĀ­chased by His blood,
That from His dear side rivĀ­en
Pours forth a savĀ­ing flood.

Refrain

Beneath that purĀ­ple fountĀ­ain,
That flows from JeĀ­susā€™ side,
Down ovĀ­er CalĀ­vaĀ­ryā€™s mountĀ­ain
We safeĀ­ly may abĀ­ide.

Refrain

And now the SavĀ­ior begs us
This preĀ­cious love reĀ­ceive;
And all that it will cost us,
Is simĀ­ply to beĀ­lieve.
