Hymn 17 - The Half Has Never Been Told

I know I love Thee better, Lord, Than any earthly joy;

For Thou hast given me the peace Which nothing can destroy.

I know that Thou art nearer still Than any earthly throng;

And sweeter is the thought of Thee Than any lovely song.

Thou hast put gladness in my heart; Then may I well be glad!

Without the secret of Thy love I could not but be sad.

O Saviour, precious Saviour mine! What will Thy presence be,

If such a life of joy can crown Our walk on earth with Thee?

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!
