16134. Love From God, Our Lord

1 Love from God, our Lord,
Has for­ev­er poured
Like a foun­tain pure and clear.
In its qui­et source,
In its si­lent course,
Doth the pre­cious pearl ap­pear.

2 Love from God, our Lord,
Comes with sweet ac­cord
Like a pure and love­ly bride.
Dwell with­in my heart,
Peace from God im­part,
Heaven doth with Thee abide.

3 Love from God, our Lord,
Has to men re­stored
Life and spi­rit from above.
Who in love re­mains,
Peace from God ob­tains;
God Him­self is ev­er love.
