Representative lyrics

English (Original Language)

1. Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free— Rolling as a mighty ocean In its fullness over me! Underneath me, all around me Is the current of His love— Leading onward, leading homeward To His glorious rest above.

2. Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— Spread His praise from shore to shore! Praise His mercy, praise His goodness; Praise His love forevermore. How He watcheth o’er His loved ones, Died to call them all His own; How for them He intercedeth, Watcheth o’er them from His throne.

3. Oh, 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. Oh, the deep, deep love of Jesus— ’Tis a heav’n of heav’ns to me; And it lifts me up to glory, Lifts me up eternally.
