Verse 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 Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward
To my glorious rest above
Verse 2
Oh the deep, deep love of Jesus
Spread His praise from shore to shore
How He loves us, ever loves us
Changeth never, nevermore
How He watches o’er His loved ones
Died to call them all His own
How for them He intercedeth
Watcheth o’er them from the throne
Verse 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
For it lifts me up to Thee
