1 Come, let us all unite to sing,
God is love.
Let heav’n and earth their praises bring,
God is love.
Let ev'ry soul from sin awake,
let ev’ry heart sweet music make,
and sing with us for Jesus’ sake,
for God is love.

Refrain:
God is love! God is love!
Come, let us all unite to sing that God is love.

2 O tell to earth’s remotest bound,
God is love.
In Christ we have redemption found,
God is love.
His blood has washed our sins away,
his Spirit turned our night to day,
and now we can rejoice to say
that God is love. [Refrain]

3 What though our mortal flesh shall fail,
God is love!
Through Christ we shall o’er death prevail,
God is love!
While endless ages roll along,
we’ll triumph with the heav’nly throng
and this shall be our sweetest song,
that God is love! [Refrain]

4 How happy is our portion here,
God is love.
These promises our spirits cheer,
God is love.
God is our sun and shield by day,
our help, our hope, our strength and stay;
and will be with us all the way:
our God is love. [Refrain]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
