Wintley Phipps - The Love of God Lyrics

The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen could ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell

The guilty pair bow down with care
God gave his Son to win
His erring child He reconciled
and pardoned from his sin

Chorus:
Oh Love of God! How rich and pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forevermore endure
The saints and angels' song

Ooo ooo ooo ooo oooooh

Could we with paint the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe a trade

To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky

Key change:
O love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure
The saints' and angels' song

Key Change:
It shall forevermore endure
The saints' and angels' song
