[Verse 1]
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 bow down with care
God gave His son to win
His erring child He reconcile
And pardoned Him from His sin
[Chorus]
The love of God so rich and so pure
So measureless and strong
It shall forever, yes, more endure
Till the saints and angels sing their song
[Verse 2]
When hurry time shall pass away
And earthly throne and kingdom falls
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
Redee-deemer and grace, yes, to Adam's race
The saints and angels sing their song
[Chorus]
Oh, Love of God so rich and so pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forever, Lordy, more endure
Till the saints and angels sing their song
The Love of God was written by Frederick Martin Lehman.
