There is a name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Because He first loved me!
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Oh, how I love Jesus,
Because He first loved me!

It tells me of a Savior’s love,
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner’s perfect plea.
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner’s perfect plea.

It tells me what my Father hath,
In store for every day,
And though I tread a darksome path,
Yields sunshine all the way.
In store for every day,
And though I tread a darksome path,
Yields sunshine all the way.

It tells of One whose loving heart
Can feel my deepest woe,
Who in each sorrow bears a part
That none can bear below.
Can feel my deepest woe,
Who in each sorrow bears a part
That none can bear below.

THE NEED FOR US TO BE
THOSE WHO MADLY LOVE JESUS
… Forget about correction, improvement, and external activities. Always pay full attention to the inner part of yourself where Jesus is. Don't try to serve the Lord, work for Him, or do anything for Him. You have to go to Him so that He can show you all His beauty and sweetness. This will attract Him to you to love Him. We must say, "Lord Jesus, You are so sweet to me. You are so loving and so kind to me. Every time I call upon You, I have a sweet feeling deep within me." We must feel a love for Jesus that is sweet to our inner feeling. We must tell the Lord all the time, "O Lord Jesus, I love You."
Many dear Christians have been distracted from trying to do something for the Lord. This is because Satan, in his subtlety, wants us to take our attention off the very center of our being. Don't pay attention to external activities, but always return to the spirit. From the depths of your spirit, you must tell the Lord a thousand times a day: "Lord Jesus, I love You." The name of Jesus is the sweetest name on earth. By telling the Lord that you love Him, you will spontaneously give Jesus more space, more room within you.
Saying, “O Lord Jesus, I love You, ” is not just a saying. This is spiritual breathing, calling on His name. When you say, “Lord Jesus, I love You, ” you have a sweet feeling within you. When you say this, it provides Him with more space within your being. He will spread into your being and saturate you with all that He is, with all His riches. If you do this day and night, you will be completely saturated with Jesus. This is what it means to have Jesus revealed in you (Gal. 1:16a), living in you (2:20a), formed in you (4:19), and making His home in your entire being (Eph. 3:17a).

This morning I called on the name of Jesus because I love Him and love His name. This hymn came to me. (1 John 4:19) Oh how I love Jesus because He first loved me! My love is a response to His love. His love is much higher than mine. His love loves the brothers. It is perfect love. Ours is not perfect love, but our love is being perfected in Him. His name is sooo much. It tells me of my saviors love. I always need to remember this as I go through life. His name speaks of the one who can feel my deepest sorrow. He has taken me through my darkest hour.
