English Lyrics
Verse 1
O love of God, how strong and true! Eternal, and yet ever new; Uncomprehended and unbought, Beyond all knowledge and all thought.
Verse 2
O love of God,how deep and great,Far deeper than man's deepest hate;Self-fed, self-kindled like the light,Changeless, eternal, infinite.
Verse 3
We read thee best in Him who cam To bear for us the cross of shame; Sent by the Father from on high, Our life to live, our death to die.
Verse 4
We read thy power to bless and save, E'en in the darkness of the grave; Still more in resurrection light We read the fullness of thy might.
Verse 5
O love of God, our shield and stay Through all the perils of our way! Eternal love, in thee we rest, Forever safe, forever blest.
