Loved with everlasting love

Loved with everlasting love

Led by grace that love to know;

Spirit

breathing from above

Thou hast taught me it is so.

Oh

this full and perfect peace!

Oh

this transport all divine!

In a love which cannot cease

I am His

and He is mine.

Heaven above is softer blue

Earth around is sweeter green;

Something lives in every hue

Christless eyes have never seen:

Birds with gladder songs o’erflow

Flow’rs with deeper beauties shine

Since I know

as now I know

I am His

and He is mine.

Things that once were wild alarms

Cannot now disturb my rest;

Closed in everlasting arms

Pillowed on the loving breast.

Oh

to lie forever here

Doubt and care and self resign

While He whispers in my ear

I am His

and He is mine.

His forever

only His:

Who the Lord and me shall part?

Ah

with what a rest of bliss

Christ can fill the loving heart.

Heaven and earth may fade and flee

Firstborn light in gloom decline;

But

while God and I shall be

I am His

and He is mine.
