Hymn 33

Deeper, deeper, in the love of Jesus

Charles P. Jones

Verse 1

Deeper, deeper, in the love of Jesus,

Daily let me go;

Higher, higher, in the school of wisdom,

More of grace to know.

Chorus

O! deeper yet I pray;

And higher everyday,

And wiser blessed Lord

In Thy precious holy Word.

Verse 2

Deeper, deeper, blessed Holy Spirit,

Take me deeper still;

Till my life is wholly lost in Jesus,

And His perfect will.

Chorus

O! deeper yet I pray;

And higher everyday,

And wiser blessed Lord

In Thy precious holy Word.

Verse 3

Deeper, deeper, tho’ it cost hard trials,

Deeper let me go;

Rooted in the holy love of Jesus,

Let me fruitful grow.

Chorus

O! deeper yet I pray;

And higher everyday,

And wiser blessed Lord

In Thy precious holy Word.

Verse 4

Deeper, higher everyday in Jesus

Till all conflict past,

Finds me conqueror, and in His own image

Perfected at last.

Chorus

O! deeper yet I pray;

And higher everyday,

And wiser blessed Lord

In Thy precious holy Word.
