The Love of God(BR290)(CS188)
C
The love of God is greater far than tongue or
G
pen can ever
C
tell;
It goes beyond the highest star, and reaches
G7
to the lowest
C
hell;
The guilty
F
pair, bowed down with
C
care, God gave His
G
Son
G7
to
C
win;
His erring
F
child He recon-
C
ciled, and pardoned
G7
from his
C
sin.
C
O love of
F
God, how rich and
C
pure! How measure-
G
less and
C
strong!
It shall for-
F
evermore en-
C
dure the saints’ and
G7
angels’
C
song.
Verse 2
C
When years of time shall pass away, and earthly
G
thrones and kingdoms
C
fall,
When men, who here, refuse to pray, on rocks and
G7
hills and mountains
C
call,
God’s love so
F
sure, shall still
C
endure, all measure-
G
less
G7
and
C
strong;
Redeeming
F
grace to Adam’s
C
race the saints’ and
G7
angels’
C
song.
C
O love of
F
God, how rich and
C
pure! How measure-
G
less and
C
strong!
KEY CAHNGE
It shall for-

dure the saints’ and
G7
angels’
C
song.
Verse 3
C
Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the
G
skies of parchment
C
made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill, and every
G7
man a scribe by
C
trade,
To write the
F
love of God
C
above, would drain the
G
o-
G7
cean
C
dry.
Nor could the
F
scroll contain the
C
whole, though stretched from
G7
sky to
C
sky.
