Of Jesus' sweet affection
I'll sing exultantly.
For me He bore affliction
And came to dwell in me.
His life and peace bestowing,
He cares unceasingly;
His love's e'er fresher growing,
More sweet and dear to me.

Honey, wine, excelling,
E'er love's praise I'm telling!

Of His love's vast dimensions
I'll loud extol and praise.
What intimate affections
Ne'er leave me all my days.
So tender is my Lover;
His heart is linked to mine;
His love keeps growing richer
And deeper all the time.

Strong, gentle love of Jesus
I evermore shall tell;
He's stronger than the strongest;
So is His love as well.
Though earth and heavens alter,
Seas dry and rocks decay,
His love will never falter;
'Tis changeless all the way.

Changeless as the days go by,
Changeless as the days go by;
Sun and moon surpassing—
Praise to everlasting.
