d 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)
Oh, love of G
od, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure, The saints and angels song
(Verse)
When hoary ti
me shall pass away,
And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall;
When men who here refuse to pray, On rocks and hill and mountains call;
God’s love, so sure, shall still endure,
All measureless and strong;
Redeeming grace to Adam’s race,
The saints and angels’ song
(Chorus)
Oh, love of G
od, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure, The saints and angels song
(Verse)
Could we with i
nk the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchments made;
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky
