Loved with everlasting love

1
Loved with everlasting love,
Led by grace that love to know;
Spirit, breathing from above,
Thou hast taught me it is so.
Oh, this full and perfect peace!
Oh, this transport all divine!
In a love which cannot cease,
I am His, and He is mine.
2
Heaven above is softer blue,
Earth around is sweeter green;
Something lives in every hue
Christless eyes have never seen:
Birds with gladder songs o’erflow,
Flow’rs with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know,
I am His, and He is mine.
3
Things that once were wild alarms
Cannot now disturb my rest;
Closed in everlasting arms,
Pillowed on the loving breast.
Oh, to lie forever here,
Doubt and care and self resign,
While He whispers in my ear,
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.
Heaven and earth may fade and flee,
Firstborn light in gloom decline;
But, while God and I shall be,
I am His, and He is mine.

What a glorious hymn of assurance. It used to be one of the hymns we loved to sign when I was at Lusaka Baptist Church. It. If a believer has Christ then all is well.

Oh, to lie forever here,

Doubt and care and self resign,

While He whispers in my ear,

I am His, and He is mine.

I was led to look up this hymn this morning... I love the Lord, but oh! to love him MORE!

Thankyou for all your testimonies! Let us plan to meet together in glory -along with the author of this hymn😁- to share our stories and glorify the one who “led (us) by grace that love to know”!

Something lives in every hue

Christless eyes have never seen.

I first sang this as a teenager and these were the words that struck a chord... I saw the world around me differently from my school friends because I saw it through the eyes of the Creator and how beautiful that has always made it to me - the work of His hands... that it is very good. The world that is now groaning, as those uneedeemed are, under the weight of sin. Let us bring others to faith in Jesus so that they too see His beauty.

"Things that once were wild alarms

Cannot now disturb my rest..." Thanks be to God in Christ this is true for me and for all who are growing in Christ the Lord. Such sweet truths here.

How wonderful to know God’s everlasting love and to know underneath are His everlasting arms holding me. While God and I shall be, I am His and He is mine.

It is of the Lord's sovereignty that the Song of Songs is included in the Scriptures. However, some so-called Christians disagree with the inclusion of Song of Songs in the Bible, viewing it as a secular book, not as a sacred one. But in fact Song of Songs is the most sacred of books. In this book the seeker says, "I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine" (6:3). If we did not have Song of Songs, we probably could not have such an expression regarding our relationship with the Lord. The hymn "Loved with everlasting love" has a line in the chorus which says, "I am His, and He is mine." This is a reference to Song of Songs. To say that "I am my beloved's" does not mean that He is the Master possessing us as His servants. It means that we are His love. This relationship is not that between master and slave, but the affectionate relationship between husband and wife. Song of Songs is the most romantic book ever written. Yet this book is concerned with the loving relationship between God and His chosen people. It presents a portrait of the married life of Christ and those who love Him.
