Lyrics

The love of God we ne­ver
Can ful­ly com­pre­hend;
But oh, we’ll praise it ev­er,
Changeless, faith­ful with­out end!

Refrain

O love of God, O sav­ing love,
That saw our sin and woe;
And sent the Son from Heav’n above
That we His love might know!

O it was love that sought us
In dark­ness and dis­tress,
And love un­told that bought us
Pardon, peace and right­eous­ness.

Refrain

His Spir­it He has giv­en,
O gift of love un­known!
’Twill lead us home to Heav­en
To joys around the throne!
