I love this hymn so much. In many ways, it's my personal testimony. I've arranged to have this sung at my funeral. Shame I won't be there so sing it! I'll be at Home in Heaven, standing before my Saviour, Lord and King, and thanking Him, for His great love and mercy to me, throughout my days on earth. Hope to see you there!

One of the songs I remember my mother singing as she prepared meals for the family. No doubt, this generation is missing out on a glorious heritage by not having them sang in our homes and churches today.
East London, East Cape, South Africa
This is no doubt one of the most powerful hymns ever written which tells the whole salvation story.

Amazed by His never ending Love. What an Almighty God would not do for His Creation.

A song of greatness of our Lord Jesus Christ His wonderful awesome greatness.

Preston, I think you nailed it, that this is just a poetic way of saying that Jesus loves us more than He loves Himself. In the garden of Gethsemane, for example, Jesus was full of sorrow and grief.
Knoxville, TN, United States
This song brings back so many memories of my late 30s to 1940s childhood. Some of the favorites were Mama and my older sister playing the piano.
Is it true that Jesus had no tears for his own griefs? or is it just a poetic way of saying that Jesus loves us more than He loves Himself?

So wonderful, God deserved all the praise.

In the early 1900's Charles H. Gabriel was the king of gospel music. Gabriel wrote the words and music for a number of hymns used by popular evangelists of his day such as Billy Sunday and his song-leader, Homer Rodeheaver.
Gabriel's hymns reflect a change in the style of gospel music. In the 1800's, hymns were deeply meaningful and often meditative. But with the revivals of Moody and Sunday, Christians learned to love songs that were fun to sing, highly energetic, and easy to remember. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown & Norton
