1 O love surpassing knowledge!
O grace so full and free!
I know that Jesus saves me,
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
I know that Jesus saves me,
And that's enough for me.

2 O wonderful salvation!
From sin He makes me free!
I feel the sweet assurance,
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
I feel the sweet assurance,
And that’s enough for me.

3 O blood of Christ, so precious,
Poured out on Calvary!
I feel its cleansing power,
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
And that’s enough for me.
I feel its cleansing power,
And that’s enough for me.
