[Verse 1]
G C
Here is love, vast as the ocean,
G D
Loving-kindness as the flood,
G C
When the Prince of Life, our Ransom,
G D G
Shed for us His precious blood.
G D
Who His love will not remember?
D7 G
Who can cease to sing His praise?
Em C
He can never be for-gotten,
G D G
Throughout Heav'n's eternal days.
[Verse 2]
G C
On the mount of crucifixion,
G D
Fountains opened deep and wide;
G C
Through the floodgates of God's mercy
G D G
Flowed a vast and gracious tide.
G D
Grace and love, like mighty rivers,
D7 G
Poured incessant from above,
Em C
Heaven's peace and perfect justice
G D G
Kissed a guilty world in love.
[Verse 3]
G C
Here is love that conquered evil:
G D
Christ, the firstborn from the grave;
G C
Death has failed to be found equal
G D G
To the life of Him Who saves.
G D
In the valley of our darkness
D7 G
Dawned His everlasting light;
Em C
Perfect love in glorious radiance
G D G
Has repelled death’s hellish night.
[Verse 4]
G C
That same love beyond all measure,
G D
Mocked and slain by hateful men,
G C
Lives and reigns in resurrection
G D G
And can never die again.
G D
Here is love for all the ages,
D7 G
Radiant Sun of Heav’n He stands,
Em C
Calling home His Father’s children,
G D G
Holding forth His wounded hands.
[Verse 5]
G C
Here is love, vast as the heavens;
G D
Countless as the stars above
G C
Are the souls that He has ransomed,
G D G
Precious daughters, treasured sons.
G D
We are called to feast forever
D7 G
On a love beyond our time;
Em C
Glorious Father, Son, and Spirit
G D G
Now with man are intertwined.
