I love the blessed Savior divine, He brightens up this pathway of mine,
From His dear side I'll never depart;
'll follow wheresoever He leads, my soul each day He tenderly feeds.

I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
No an earthly change can cause us to part;
I've been made a child with a homeward start,
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.

From day to day He's leading me on to that bright land of beautiful dawn,
From His dear side I'll never depart;
And too, I learn more what I shall see when I have crossed life's mystical sea.

I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
No an earthly change can cause us to part;
I've been made a child with a homeward start,
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.

Such boundless, precious, glorious love the Savior sends from heaven above,
From His dear side I'll never depart;
It fills my souls with wonderful joy and drives away the things that annoy.

I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
No an earthly change can cause us to part;
I've been made a child with a homeward start,
I love the Lord deep down in my heart.
