1126. God Is Love

1 Hark! my soul, seraphic music,
From angelic choirs above,
Breaks to earth the joyful tidings
That the Lord our God is love.

Refrain:
God is love, God is love,
Song of angel choirs above;
Hallelujah! God is love.
Paradise now helps to swell it,
Saints on earth afar go tell it,
Satan’s host can never quell it,
For the Lord our God is love.

2 See the depths of His compassion,
Giving heaven’s best to prove
By a life of pain and sorrow,
That the Lord our God is love. [Refrain]

3 Lo, I feel the Holy Spirit,
Like a peaceful, heav’nly dove,
Witnessing within my bosom
That the Lord our God is love. [Refrain]

4 Sing my soul, and all within me,
Sing till all the clouds remove,
Sing, and praise, and shout forever,
For the Lord our God is love. [Refrain]
