Here Is Love
Instrumental intro
Verse 1
Here is
G
love, vast as the o
C
cean,
Loving
G
kindness as the
D
flood,
When the
G
Prince of Life, our
C
Ransom,
Shed for
G
us His
D
precious
G
blood.
Who His
G
love will not
D
remember?
Who can
D
cease to sing His
G
praise?
He can
Em
never be for
C
gotten,
Throughout
G
Heav'n's
D
eternal
G
days.
Verse 2
On the
G
mount of crucifi
C
xion,
Fountains
G
opened deep and
D
wide;
Through the
G
floodgates of God's
C
mercy
Flowed a
G
vast and
D
gracious
G
tide.
Grace and
G
love, like mighty
D
rivers,
Poured in
D
cessant from a
G
bove,
And Heav'n's
Em
peace and perfect
C
justice
Kissed a
G
guilty
D
world in
G
love.
Instrumental interlude
Verse 3
Let me
G
all Thy love ac
C
cepting,
Love Thee,
G
ever all my
D
days;
Let me
G
seek Thy kingdom
C
only
And my
G
life be
D
to Thy
G
praise;
Thou a
G
lone shalt be my
D
glory,
Nothing
D
in the world I
G
see.
Thou hast
Em
cleansed and sancti
C
fied me,
Thou Thy
G
self hast
D
set me
G
free.
Verse 4
In Thy
G
truth Thou dost direct
C
me
By Thy
G
Spirit through Thy
D
Word;
And Thy
G
grace my need is
C
meeting,
As I
G
trust in
D
Thee, my
G
Lord.
Of Thy
G
fullness Thou art
D
pouring
Thy great
D
love and power on
G
me,
Without
Em
measure, full and
C
boundless,
Drawing
G
out my
D
heart to
G
Thee.

Man may trouble and distress me, 'twill but drive me to Thy breast.
Life with trials hard may press me; heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
Oh, 'tis not in grief to harm me while Thy love is left to me;
Oh, 'twere not in joy to charm me, were that joy unmixed with Thee.
Go, then, earthly fame and treasure! Come, disaster, scorn and pain!
In Thy service, pain is pleasure; with Thy favor, loss is gain.
I have called Thee, "Abba, Father"; I have stayed my heart on Thee:
Storms may howl, and clouds may gather, all must work for good to me.
Soul, then know thy full salvation; rise o'er sin, and fear, and care;
Joy to find in every station something still to do or bear:
Think what Spirit dwells within thee; think what Father's smile is thine;
Think that Jesus died to win thee, child of heaven, canst thou repine?
Haste then on from grace to glory, armed by faith, and winged by prayer,
Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide us there.
Soon shall cease thy earthly mission, soon shall pass thy pilgrim days;
Hope soon change to glad fruition, faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
