Into the Heart of Jesus

 

1 

Into the heart of Jesus

Deeper and deeper I go,

Seeking to know the reason

Why He should love me so -

Why He should stoop to lift me

Up from the miry clay,

Saving my soul, making me whole,

Tho I had wandered away.

2 

Into the will of Jesus,

Deeper and deeper I go,

Praying for grace to follow,

Seeking His way to know;

Bowing in full surrender

Low at His blessed feet,

Bidding Him take, break me and make,

Till I am molded and meet.

3 

Into the cross of Jesus

Deeper and deeper I go,

Following thru the garden,

Facing the dreaded foe;

Drinking the cup of sorrow -

Sobbing with broken heart,

"O Savior, help! dear Savior, help!

Grace for my weakness impart."

4 

Into the joy of Jesus

Deeper and deeper I go,

Rising, with soul enraptured,

Far from the world below;

Joy in the place of sorrow,

Peace in the midst of pain,

Jesus will give, Jesus will give -

He will uphold and sustain.

5 

Into the love of Jesus

Deeper and deeper I go,

Praising the One who brought me

Out of my sin and woe;

And thru eternal ages

Gratefully I shall sing,

"O how He loved! O how He loved!

Jesus, my Lord and my King!"
