Sheet music
- 1O the precious love of Jesus,Growing sweeter day by day,Tuning all my heart, so joyous,To a heav'nly melody.Christ is precious, Christ is precious;In life's journey He will lead thee;Christ is precious, Christ is precious;He will lead thee all the way.
- 2But we cannot know the fullnessOf the Savior's wondrous love,Till we see and know His glory,In the heav'nly home above.Christ is precious, Christ is precious;In life's journey He will lead thee;Christ is precious, Christ is precious;He will lead thee all the way.
- 3Come and taste the love of Jesus,At His feet thy burdens lay;Trust Him with thy grief and sorrow,Bear this joyful song away.Christ is precious, Christ is precious;In life's journey He will lead thee;Christ is precious, Christ is precious;He will lead thee all the way.
