The love of God is greater far
Than tounge or pen can ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell
The guilty pair,
bowed down with care
God gave His Son to win
His erring child He reconciled
And pardoned from his sin
When time on earth shall pass away
And worldly thrones
And kingdoms fall
When all men here refuse to pray
On rocks and hills
and mountains call
God's love so sure will yet endure
All measureless and strong
Redeeming Grace to Adam's race
The saint's and angel's song
Were all the oceans with ink filled
And the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above
Would drain the oceans dry
Nor could the scroll
Containthe whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
O love of God, so rich and pure
So measureless and strong
It will forevermore endure
The saint's and angel's song
Partially written by
F.M. Lehman
The third stanza of this song
Was found stenciled on the wall
Of an insane asylum
It could be thousands of years old
Written by a Jewish songwriter
Let us all remember that God
LOVES ALL OF US.
Let there be PEACE in our
Poetic community!
I will be off site for a while
But, hopefully, back soon.
