The love of God is greater far

Wonderful description of God's Love!

Verse 3 especially, brings me to tears! And thank you to George Beverly Shea for putting his heart and voice into this.

Wooow😥. Am in love with this song. His love is rich and pure. No one can. have this love like for God

Oh how we have to be reminded of this so greater love which is so sure, strong, rich, pure, immeasurable. Such a beautiful song which brings us back to his love and keeps us drenched in his Love. All things are taken care of. We are in the ascension with Christ in the heavenlies through the love of God which has been poured out into us. What can be a more privileged position to be in.

Thanks for sharing the song
I love praising God early morning when I wake up.
I just finished my early morning devotion
Praise the Lord God Almighty
God Bless

The love of God is measureless and boundless. It is beyond our understanding. It is spiritual and divine.

Oh love of God. You sent your son to die!
About the author:
Lehmann was the hus­band of Em­ma Lou­ise Der­my­er.

He emi­grat­ed to Am­eri­ca with his fa­mi­ly at age four, sett­ling in Io­wa, where he lived most of his child­hood. He came to Christ at age 11, as he re­lates:

One glad morn­ing about ele­ven o’clock while walk­ing up the coun­try lane, skirt­ed by a wild crab-ap­ple grove on the right and an os­age [Os­age or­ange? ] fence, with an old white-elm gate in a gap at the left, sud­den­ly Heav­en let a cor­nu­co­pia of glo­ry des­cend on the ele­ven-year old lad.

The wild crab-ap­ple grove as­sumed a heav­en­ly glow and the os­age fence an un­earth­ly lustre. That old white-elm gate with its sun-warped boards gleamed and glowed like sil­ver bars to shut out the world and shut him in with the form of the fourth, just come in­to his heart. The weight of con­vict­ion was gone and the pae­ans of joy and praise fell from his lips.

Lehman stu­died for the min­is­try at North­west­ern Col­lege in Na­per­ville, Il­linois, and served pas­tor­ates in Au­du­bon, Io­wa; New Lon­don, In­di­ana; and Kan­sas Ci­ty, Mis­sou­ri.

In 1911, he moved to Kan­sas Ci­ty, where he helped found the Na­za­rene Pub­lish­ing House.

The ma­jo­ri­ty of Leh­mann’s life was de­vot­ed to writ­ing sac­red songs; his first was writ­ten while a pas­tor in Kings­ley, Io­wa, in 1898. He wrote and pub­lished hun­dreds of songs, and com­piled five song books.

This is a special song that shows me the endless boundless love of God. It makes the redeemed joyous and give sinners hope.

Lord, thank you for making us YOUR greatest Love ❤️ and Masterpiece! May we continue to love you back with our FIRST love!

"The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell.
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell...
Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made;
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man 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...
O love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure!!!!!"

The most beautiful comparison of how immeasurable the love of God is!!! Praise Him for all eternity!

Just believe and receive
SALVATION
pure undeserved grace.
Hallelujah what a Saviour
