The love of Christ, which passeth knowledge.
Ephesians 3:19
Words: F. M. Eastwood, 1908.
Music: Fred H. Byshe (🔊 pdf nwc).
If you know Eastwood’s full name, or where to get a good photo of him or Byshe,
You have heard of the story of Jesus—
Of His grace flowing boundless and free,
But there’s no one can tell you the fullness
Of His wonderful love for me.
Refrain
His love for me, His love for me!
High as the heav’n, deep as the sea;
Love that will last thro’ eternity,
His love for me, His love for me!
You have heard how He blessed little children:
Come, all ye that are weary,
said He;
So I came, and He gave me the blessing
Of His wonderful love for me.
Refrain
You have heard how the blind, as they sought Him,
Found their sight when He bade them to see;
So my sin-blinded eyes have been opened
By His wonderful love for me.
Refrain
You have heard how He spake to the tempest—
How the words, Peace, be still!
calmed the sea;
So my soul found the peace that it longed for
In His wonderful love for me.
