I know I love Thee better, Lord,Than any earthly joy;For Thou hast given me the peaceWhich nothing can destroy.Refrain:The half has never yet been told,Of love so full and free;The half has never yet been told,The blood, it cleanseth me!I know that Thou art nearer stillThan any earthly throng;And sweeter is the thought of TheeThan any lovely song.Thou hast put gladness in my heart;Then may I well be glad!Without the secret of Thy loveI could not but be sad.O Saviour, precious Saviour mine!What will Thy presence be,If such a life of joy can crownOur walk on earth with Thee!
