Lyics

Sing of Je-sus, sing for-ev-er 

Of the love that chang-es nev-er!

Who, or what, from him can sev-er

Those he makes his own?



With his blood the Lord hath bought them, 

When they knew him not he sought them,

And from all their wanderings bro't them:

His the praise a-lone.



Through the des-ert Je-sus leads them,

With the bread of heaven he feeds them,

And through all their way he speeds them

To their home a-bove.
