The Love of God

Verse 1

The love of God flows deep and wide Thro’ Christ who bled for us and died; Its widening stretch we cannot see, It reaches far beyond the sea.

Chorus

Oh love, oh, love, oh, love of God so free; He proved His love for you and me Upon dark Calvary.

Verse 2

Tho’ men have gone in sin so deep That hell would blush and angels weep, Yet, God so loved each guilty one He gave for them His only Son.

Verse 3

The heart that is so hard in sin That this great love can never win, Is truly fit for nothing less Than endless hell and wretchedness.

Verse 4

But tho’ your sins be black and deep, And awful darkness ’round you creep, Yet, God so loves your guilty soul, He’ll save you from all hell’s control.
