15746. God's Heart Is Love

1 Lord, I see on rock formations,
And the storm’s reverberations,
In the life that swims the sea,
In the birds and beasts and trees,
God’s heart is love.

Refrain:
God’s heart is love,
Yes, always love;
From earth’s beginning to the end,
God’s heart is love.

2 In Thy providential dealings
We can know Thy wondrous feelings;
And tho’ read as in a glass,
Yet we catch the truths that pass:
God’s heart is love. [Refrain]

3 See the great, the glorious Master!
What was wrong that such disaster
Should o’ertake Him on the tree?
Oh, ’twas sin. God set us free:
God’s heart is love. [Refrain]

4 Now we catch the glorious vision
Of the wonderful provision
God has made for us on high,
Who for Christ will live and die.
God’s heart is love. [Refrain]
