The Love of God

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
 Oh, the love of God, how rich and how pure
 How measureless and strong
 Oh, the love of God, it shall evermore endure
 The saints' and angels' 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
 Oh, the love of God, how rich and how pure
 How measureless and strong
 Oh, the love of God, it shall evermore 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 oceans dry
 Nor could the scroll contain the whole
 Though stretched from sky to sky
 Oh, the love of God, how rich and how pure
 How measureless and strong
 Oh, the love of God, it shall evermore endure
 The saints' and angels' song
 The saints' and angels' song
 The saints' and angels' song
