The Love of God is greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star and reaches to the Lowest hell
The guilty pair bowed down with care, God gave His Son to win
His erring child He reconciled and pardoned from His sin
Chorus: O love of God, how rich
& pure! How measure less & strong!
It
shall forevermore endure – The saints & angels song
When years of time shall pass away, And earthly thrones and Kingdoms fall
When men who hear refuse to pray; On rocks & hills and mountain call,
God’s love so sure shall still endure all measureless and strong
Redeeming grace to Adams race, The saints and angels song
Could we with ink the ocean fill and were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill and every man ascribe by trade
To write the love of God above, would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole, tho stretched from sky to sky.
