Verse 1
The love of C God is F greater C far than C/E tongue or G pen can G/B ever C tell
It goes beyC ond the F highest C star and C/E reaches G to the F lowest C hell.
The C/E guilty F pair bow down with C care. God C/E gave His G Son G/B to C win.
His C/E erring F child He reconcC iled and C/E pardoned G from F his C sin.
Verse 2
When years of C time shall F pass C away and C/E earthly G thrones and G/B kingdoms C fall
When men who C here refF use to C pray on C/E rocks and G hills and F mountains C call,
God's C/E love so F sure shall still endC ure all C/E measureG less G/B and C strong
ReC/E deeming F grace to Adam's C race the C/E saints and G anF gels' C song.
Chorus
O C/E love of F God how rich and C pure! How C/E measureG less G/B and C strong!
It C/E shall forF evermore enC dure, the sC/E aints and G angF els' C song.
Verse 3
Could we with C ink the F ocean C fill and C/E were the G sky of G/B parchment C made
Were every C stock on F earth a C quill and C/E every G man a F scribe by C trade,
To C/E write the F love of God C above would C/E drain the G oG/B cean C dry
Nor C/E could the F scroll contain the C whole though C/E stretched from G sky F to C sky.
