The Love of God

Words and Music: Frederick Lehman
 
Scripture: Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Romans 8:35

Lyrics:
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

Oh love of God
How rich and pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forevermore endure
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 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

Oh love of God
How rich and pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forevermore endure
The saints and angels song
