Tune:[Wide, wide as the ocean]
Composer:C. Austin Miles

751. Wide, wide as the ocean

Wide, wide as the ocean,
high as the heavens above;
deep, deep as the deepest sea
is my Saviour’s love.
I, though so unworthy,
still am a child of his care,
for his word teaches me
that his love reaches me
ev'rywhere.
