How I love the great Redeemer Who is doing so much for me; With what joy I tell the story Of the love that makes men free. Till my earthly life is ended, I will send songs above, Then beside the crystal sea More and more my soul shall be Praising Jesus and His love. 1-9 Words by Francis Foster / Music by Samuel W. Beazley
