The guilty pair bowed down with care God gave his Son to win; his erring child he reconciled, and pardoned every sin. Refrain: O love of God, how rich and pure; how measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, the saints' and angels' song. 2 When time at last shall pass away, and earthly thrones and kingdoms fall; When those who here refuse to pray on rocks and hills and mountains call; God's love, so sure, shall still endure all measureless and strong, redeeming grace to Adam's race, the saints' and angels' song. [Refrain] 3 Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made; were every stalk on earth a quill, and everyone a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry; nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:1-10 Used With Tune: THE LOVE OF GOD
