Intro: G C/G Em Dsus4
verse 1
G Em
The love of God is greater far
D G
Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
Em
It goes beyond the highest star,
D G
And reaches to the lowest hell;
C G
The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
D G
God gave His Son to win;
C G
His erring child He reconciled,
D G
And pardoned from his sin.
C Em D
verse 2
G Em
When hoary time shall pass away,
Dsus G
And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall,
Em
When men who here refuse to pray,
D G
On rocks and hills and mountains call,
C G
God’s love so sure, shall still endure,
D G
All measureless and strong;
C G
Redeeming grace to Adam’s race—
D G
The saints’ and angels’ song.
C G
Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
D G
How measureless and strong!
C
It shall forevermore endure—
D G
The saints’ and angels’ song.
verse 3
G Em
Could we with ink the ocean fill,
Dsus4 G
And were the skies of parchment made,
G Em
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
D G
And every man a scribe by trade;
C G
To write the love of God above
D G
Would drain the ocean dry;
C G
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
D G
Though stretched from sky to sky.
C G
Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
D G
How measureless and strong!
C
It shall forevermore endure—
D G
The saints’ and angels’ song.
C G
Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
D G
How measureless and strong!
C
It shall forevermore endure—
D G
The saints’ and angels’ song.
