which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the shepherd the

SlavesSlaves Part II of V: THE MASTER

The love of God is greater far,Than tongue 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 reconciledAnd pardoned from His sin.

O love of God, how rich and pureHow measureless and strong!

It shall forevermore endureThe saints' and angels' song.

When hoary time shall pass away,And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall

When men who here refuse to pray,On rocks and hills and mountains call,

God's love so sure shall still endureAll measureless and strong

Redeeming grace to Adam's race,The saints' and angels' song.

O love of God, how rich and pureHow measureless and strong!

It shall forevermore endureThe saints' and angels' song.

 

Could we with ink the ocean fill,And were 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 contain the whole,Though stretched from sky to sky.

O love of God, how rich and pureHow measureless and strong!

It shall forevermore endureThe saints' and angels' song.

O love of God, how rich and pureHow measureless and strong!

It shall forevermore endureThe saints' and angels' song.
