He told me how; He loved me,
And I was glad;
For thinking of my love to Him
Had made me sad.

He told me how He loved me
E'er time began;
When "His delights were ever with
The sons of men."

He told me how He loved me,
And proved it so
Upon the cross of sin and shame;
He bore my woe.

He tells me still He loves me-
Oh, depth of grace!
Lord, keep me true until the day
I see Thy face.

E. I. E.
