| | | | |
| − | :(1) O love of God, how strong and true!
| |
| − | :Eternal, and yet ever new;
| |
| − | :Uncomprehended and unbought,
| |
| − | :Beyond all knowledge and all thought.
| |
| − | :O love of God, how deep and great!
| |
| − | :Far deeper than man's deepest hate;
| |
| − | :Self-fed, self-kindled, like the light,
| |
| − | :Changeless, eternal, infinite.
| |
| − | :(2) O heavenly love, how precious still,
| |
| − | :In days of weariness and ill,
| |
| − | :In nights of pain and helplessness,
| |
| − | :To heal, to comfort, and to bless!
| |
| − | :O wide embracing, wondrous love!
| |
| − | :We read you in the sky above,
| |
| − | :We read you in the earth below,
| |
| − | :In seas that swell and streams that flow.
| |
| − | :(3) We read you best in Him Who came
| |
| − | :To bear for us the cross of shame;
| |
| − | :Sent by the Father from on high,
| |
| − | :Our life to live, our death to die.
| |
| − | :We read thy power to bless and save,
| |
| − | :E'en in the darkness of the grave;
| |
| − | :Still more in resurrection light,
| |
| − | :We read the fullness of thy might.
| |
| − | :(4) O love of God, our shield and stay
| |
| − | :Through all the perils of our way!
| |
| − | :Eternal love, in thee we rest
| |
| − | :Forever safe, forever blest.
| |
| − | :We will exalt you, God Almighty,
| |
| − | :And we will ever praise your name;
| |
| − | :We will extol you ev'ry day,
| |
| − | :And ever more your praise proclaim.
