1
One is kind above all others
O how He loves
His is love beyond a brother’s
O how He loves
Earthly friends may fall and leave thee
One day kind the next day grieve thee
But this Friend will ne’er deceive thee
O how He loves

2
Tis eternal life to know Him
O how He loves
Think oh think how much we owe Him
O how He loves
With His precious blood He bought us
In the wilderness He sought us
To His fold He safely brought us
O how He loves

3
Blessèd Jesus wouldst thou know Him
O how He loves
Give thine heart thine all unto Him
O how He loves
Is it sin that pains or grieves thee
Unbelief or trials seize thee
Jesus can from all release thee
O how He loves

4
Love this Friend He longs to save thee
O how He loves
All through life He will not leave thee
O how He loves
Think no more of friendships hollow
Take His easy yoke and follow
Jesus carries all thy sorrow
O how He loves

5
All thy sins shall be forgiven
O how He loves
Backward shall thy foes be driven
O how He loves
Best of blessings He’ll provide thee
Naught but good shall e’er betide thee
Safe to glory He will guide thee
O how He loves
