JESUS LOVED ME

Of all the friends, I cherish most,
      Is Christ, whose faithful love
Shall be my theme and constant boast
      Eternal years above.
         So old, yet new;
         So strong; yet true,
Before the ages were in frame,
HE LOVED ME. Blessed be His Name!

He was the Word from aeons past,
      The Son of God above;
Adored by all creation vast,
      Yet such was His great love,
         He came to earth,
         Left heaven’s mirth,
Highest rank and glorious fame.
HE LOVED ME. Blessed be His Name!

It was a stoop of shame and loss,
      A lonely path He trod,
In world of sin, e’en to a cross,
      He came from throne of God.
         O wondrous grace,
         He chose this place,
Receiving all my guilt and blame.
HE LOVED ME. Blessed be His Name!

He is my Friend. I live to tell
      The marvel of His love.
And when in heavenly bliss I dwell,
     In mansion bright above,
         My joy shall be
         His face to see,
And sing His praise with loud acclaim.
HE LOVED ME. Blessed be His Name!
