O who am I that for my sake my Lord should take frail flesh, and die? 2 He came from his blest throne salvation to bestow, but people scorned, and none the longed-for Christ would know. But O my Friend, my Friend indeed, who at my need his life did spend. 3 Sometimes they strew his way, and his sweet praises sing, resounding all the day hosannas to their King. Then “Crucify!” is all their breath, and for his death they thirst and cry. 4 Here might I stay and sing, no story so divine; never was love, dear King, never was grief like thine! This is my friend, in whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend. Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN

Loved with Everlasting Love

Author: George W. Robinson; Edmund P. Clowney Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 101 hymnals Topics: Christ Cross of Lyrics: 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 peace 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 Christ-less eyes have never 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 out-poured 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 bliss Christ can fill the loving heart. Heav'n and earth may fade and flee, first-born 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. Scripture: Romans 8:38-39 Used With Tune: EVERLASTING LOVE
