1. Loved with everlasting love,
drawn by grace that love to know,
Spirit went from Christ above,
thou dost witness it is so.
O this full and precious pece
from his presence all divine;
in a love that cannot cease,
I am his and he is mine;
in a love that cannot cease,
I am his and he is mine.
2. Heav'n above is deeper blue,
earth around is sweeter green,
that which glows in every hue
Christless eyes havenever seen.
Birds in song his glories show,
flow'rs with richer beauties shine
since I know, as now I know,
I am his and he is mine;
since I know, as now I know,
I am his and he is mine.
3. Taste the goodness of the Lord:
welcomed home to his embrace
all his love as blood outpoured
seals the pardon of his grace.
Can I doubt his love for me,
when I trace that love's design?
By the cross of Calvary
I am his and he is mine.
By the cross of Calvary
I am his and he is mine.
4. His forever, only his--
who the Lord and me shall part?
Ah, with what a rest of bless
Christ can fill the loving heart.
Heav'n 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.
but while God and I shall be,
I am his and he is mine.
