"O love of God, how strong and true" Hymn
O love of God, how strong and true, eternal and yet ever new, uncomprehended and unbought beyond all knowledge and all thought!
O love of God, how deep and great, far deeper than man’s deepest hate;
self-fed, self-kindled like the light, changless, eternal, infinite.
O heavnly love, how precious still, in days of weariness and ill, in nights
of pain and helplessness, to heal, to comfort, and to bless! O wide-
empracing, wondrous love! We read you in the sky above, we read you
in the earth below, in seas that swell, and streams that flow.
O love of God, our shield and stay through all the perils of our way!
Eternal love, in you we rest, forever safe, forever blest.
We will exalt you, God and King, and we will ever praise your name, we
will extol you every day, and evermore your praise proclam. “I pray
that you..may have power..to grasp how wide and long and high and deep
is the love of christ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge.”
Ephesians 3:17-19
