- Love's sweet lesson to obey;
- Sweeter lessons cannot be,
- Loving Him who first loved me.
- 2With a childlike heart of love,
- At Thy bidding may I move:
- Prompt to serve and follow Thee,
- Loving Him who first loved me.

- Strong to follow in Thy grace;
- Learning how to love from Thee;
- Loving Him who first loved me.
- 4Love in loving finds employ,
- In obedience all her joy;
- Ever new that joy will be,
- Loving Him who first loved me.
- 5Thus may I rejoice to show
- That I feel the love I owe;
- Singing, till Thy face I see,
- Of His love who first loved me.
- 6Amen.
