Everlasting Love

Wondrous words! how rich in bless­ing!

Deeper than th’un­fathomed sea;

Broader than its world of wa­ters

Boundless

in­fi­nite and free.

Higher than the heav’ns ab­ove

Is that ev­er­last­ing love!

Higher than the heav’ns ab­ove

Is that ev­er­last­ing love!

Down to low­est depths it reach­es—

The all-lov­ing Fa­ther’s arm

Toward His re­bel child­ren yearn­ing

Drawing them with ma­gic charm.

Till the yield­ing spir­its move

Touched by ev­er­last­ing love;

Till the yield­ing spir­its move

Touched by ev­er­last­ing love.

Weary spir­its—sad with toil­ing

’Mid the sor­rows of life’s way—

Feel their hea­vy bur­dens light­ened

As they jour­ney day by day.

How with quick­ened steps they move

Cheered by ev­er­last­ing love;

How with quick­ened steps they move

Cheered by ev­er­last­ing love.

I have set thee as a sig­net

Graven on My hands thy name;

Lo

I still am with thee al­ways

Evermore thy friend—the same;

Never chang­ing—thou wilt prove

Mine is ev­er­last­ing love;

Never chang­ing—thou wilt prove

Mine is ev­er­last­ing love.

In My house of many man­sions

I’ve pre­pared a place for thee

Where are no dark clouds or tem­pests

Where I am

there thou shalt be—

All the un­told bliss to prove

Of My ev­er­last­ing love;

All the un­told bliss to prove

Of My ev­er­last­ing love.
