Oh, the Deep Deep Love of Jesus

We, as Christians sometimes struggle with guilt, sin, and doubt.  And, sometimes it is hard to believe that Jesus really loves us, or forgives us, or is near us.  Sometimes it is hard to feel like He is near or watching out for us.  We doubt His love in the moment, though we may affirm it with our mouths.  This hymn speaks of Jesus' deep, deep love for us, and what He does to show that love.  I hope you come to realize more and more how very much Jesus loves you specifically.  And I hope this hymn will help.

O 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 Thy glorious rest above! O the deep, deep love of Jesus, spread His praise from shore to shore! How He loveth, ever loveth, 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! O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best! ’Tis an ocean full of blessing, ’tis a haven giving rest! O the deep, deep love of Jesus, ’tis a heaven of heavens to me; And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!
