  1. There is a Name I enjoy hearing, and I enjoy singing about its importance
  2. It’s like music to my ears, the finest name on the face of the planet
  • Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me
  • Reprise
  1. It reminds me of the love of a Savior who died in order to set me free
  2. It reminds me of His precious blood, which serves as the sinner’s perfect appeal
  3. And A grin of a Father beaming upon His child comes to mind when I hear this song. It keeps me going throughout this brief period of time, through desert, waste, and wilderness. It informs me of the plans my Father has for me on a daily basis. And, despite the fact that I am walking down a gloomy route, the trail is filled with brightness the entire way
  4. A caring heart that can sense my deepest sorrow is depicted in the story. Each grief has a bearer, who carries a part that no one else can endure
  5. It makes my trembling heart sing with joy
  6. It dries each new tear that forms. It speaks to me in a “still quiet voice,” telling me to trust and never be afraid
  7. Jesus, whose name I adore and whose name I adore to hear: “Jesus, you are my everything.” No saint on earth can express how valuable it is, and no heart can comprehend how precious it is
  8. This is a name that will continue to exude its aroma. Along this treacherous path, Shall pleasantly soften the rocky incline that takes me to God’s presence
  9. It will be in that place, with all the blood-bought throng, free from sin and sorrow, that I will sing the new eternal song of Jesus’ love for me

Oh, How I Love Jesus

We don’t give much thought to what a simple name might convey to us. For example, Jesus: “. you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21 ESV); “Jesus” is derived from the Hebrew for “The Lord Saves.” There is also the literal meaning of the word, which is often in another language. There are several examples of this in the Bible, such as: Another definition of a name is the things that are psychologically associated with the name in some way or another.

Text:

Frederick Whitfield, an English priest, wrote the first stanzas of this hymn in 1855, and the rest is history. Whitfield’s Sacred Poems and Prosein London, published in 1861, was the first publication of the work, which was first written in hymn sheets and booklets. It was initially published in the United States in 1864, making it the earliest known edition. Despite the fact that the refrain is anonymous, it was used in conjunction with many other hymns written by John Newton and Isaac Watts in the second half of the nineteenth century, including “Amazing Grace” and “Alas!

Only four of Whitfield’s nine original stanzas are still in frequent usage today; they are the first, second, fourth, and fifth stanzas, respectively.

It is the topic of the stanzas that the numerous pleasant connotations and promises that the name of Jesus holds for a devoted Christian believer are the focus of the poem.

Tune:

The origins of the song O HOW I LOVE JESUS may be traced back to the camp meetings of nineteenth-century America. It’s possible that the melodies for the stanzas and the refrain were composed separately. Despite the fact that they blend nicely together, the stanza music starts with an upbeat and has a constant long-short rhythm, whilst the refrain tune accentuates the primary beats of each measure. All of the songs have a lovely, almost dance-like air to them, and they are all simple to sing.

When/Why/How:

It was at camp meetings in nineteenth-century America that the song O HOW I LOVE JESUS got its start. Possibly, the verse and refrain melodies were composed independently of each other. Despite the fact that they blend nicely together, the verse music starts with an upbeat and has a constant long-short rhythm, whilst the refrain tune emphasizes the key beats of the measure. A lovely, almost dance-like tone throughout the entire song, which is simple to sing.

In the world, there is a name that I like hearing and singing; it sounds like music to my ears and is the sweetest name on the planet. It’s hard to express how much I love Jesus, but it’s hard to express how much I love Jesus, since He first loved me. There is something about it that tells me of a Saviour’s love, who died to set me free; it tells me of His precious blood; it tells me about the Sinner’s Perfect Plea. Each day, it informs me of what my Father has in store for me, and even if I travel along a dark and difficult path, it provides sunshine throughout.

O How I Love Jesus

There is a name I like hearing, and I adore speaking its meaning; it is like music to my ears, and it is the loveliest name on the face of the planet. Refrain What a wonderful reason to love Jesus: He first loved me! What a wonderful reason to love Jesus: 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, which is the sinner’s perfect plea; it tells me of His precious blood, which is the sinner’s perfect plea Refrain It reminds me of a Father’s grin, beaming onto His child; it lifts my spirits throughout my brief sojourn through desert, wasteland, and wilderness.

Refrain That person has a loving heart that can sense my deepest pain; who in my sadness bears a portion that no one else can carry.

Refrain Jesus, whose name I adore, whose name I adore to be reminded of!

Refrain from using this name since it will continue to emit its aroma.

Those who walk this thorny path,Shall pleasantly soften the rocky slope that goes up to God. And there, with the whole blood-bought throng, free from sin and grief, I’ll sing the new eternal songOf Jesus’ love for me, which will never end. Refrain
