Why Do I Sing About Jesus

(KETCHUM. 8.7.8.7 with refrain)
1.

Deep in my heart there's a gladness;
Jesus has saved me from sin!
Praise to His name, what a Savior!
Cleansing without and within!

Refrain:
Why do I sing about Jesus?
Why is He precious to me?
He is my Lord and my Savior;
dying, He set me free!

2.

Only a glimpse of His goodness;
that was sufficient for me.
Only one look at the Savior;
then was my spirit set free.

Refrain:
Why do I sing about Jesus?
Why is He precious to me?
He is my Lord and my Savior;
dying, He set me free!

3.

He is the fairest of fair ones;
He is the Lily, the Rose.
Rivers of mercy surround Him;
grace, love and pity He shows.

Refrain:
Why do I sing about Jesus?
Why is He precious to me?
He is my Lord and my Savior;
dying, He set me free!
