| Song: | Frederick M. Lehman: The love of God
6 6 -6 -7 -8 8 -8-8 7-7 The love of God is greater far -8 -8 -7 -6 -7 7-7 -7 Than tongue or pen can ever tell; 6 6 -6 -7 -8 8 -8 -87-7 It goes beyond the highest star, -8 -8 -7 -6 -7 7 -6 6 And reaches to the lowest hell; 9 9 9 8 9 9 9 -8 The guilty pair, bowed down with care, -8 -8 8 -8-6 8 -8 God gave His Son to win; 9 9 9 8 9 9 9 -87-7 His erring child He reconciled, -8 -8 8 -8-6 -7 -7 And pardoned from his sin. CHORUS 9 9 9 9 9 -9 8 -87-7 O love of God, how rich and pure! -8 -8 8 -87-6 8 -8 How measureless and strong! 9 9 9 9 9 -9 8-87-7 It shall forev-ermore endure -8 -8 8 -87-6 7 6 The saints� and an-gels� song. When years of time shall pass away, And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall, When men, who here refuse to pray, On rocks and hills 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 Could we with ink the ocean fill, And were the skies of parchment 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. CHORUS |
