1 Immortal love, for ever full,
for ever flowing free,
for ever shared, for ever whole,
a never-ebbing sea.
2 Our outward lips confess the name
all other names above;
love only knoweth whence it came
and comprehendeth love.
3 O warm, sweet, tender, even yet
a present help is he;
and faith has still its Olivet,
and love its Galilee.
4 The healing of his seamless dress
is by our beds of pain;
we touch him in life's throng and press,
and we are whole again.
5 Through him the first fond prayers are said
our lips of childhood frame;
the last low whispers of our dead
are burdened with his name.
6 Alone, O love ineffable,
thy saving name is giv'n;
to turn aside from thee is hell,
to walk with thee is heav'n.
