Author: J. Bowring Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #111 (1889) First Line: God is love; His mercy brightens Refrain First Line: Hallelujah, God is love! Lyrics: 1 God is love; His mercy brightens
All the path in which we rove;
Bliss He wakes, and woe He lightens:
God is wisdom, God is love.
Refrain:
Hallelujah, God is love!
Hallelujah, God is love!
Bliss He wakes, and woe He lightens:
God is wisdom, God is love.
2 Chance and change are busy ever;
Man decays, and ages move;
But His mercy waneth never:
God is wisdom, God is love. [Refrain]
3 E’en the hour that darkest seemeth
Will His changeless goodness prove;
From the mist His brightness streameth:
God is wisdom, God is love. [Refrain]
4 He with earthly cares entwineth
Hope and comfort from above;
Ev’rywhere His glory shineth:
God is wisdom, God is love. [Refrain] Tune Title: [God is love; His mercy brightens]
God Is Love
