O the deep, deep love of Jesus
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free
Rolling like a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me
Underneath me, all around me
Is the current of your love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To thy glorious rest above
O the deep, deep love of Jesus
Spread his praise from shore to shore
How he loves us, ever loves us
Changes never, nevermore
How he watches o'er his loved ones
Died to call them all his own
How for them he's interceding
Watching o'er them from the throne
O the deep, deep love of Jesus
Love of ev'ry love the best
'Tis an ocean vast of blessing
'Tis a haven sweet of rest
O the deep, deep love of Jesus
For my heav'n of heav'ns is He
This my everlasting glory
Jesus mighty love for me
