Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 110 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O love of God, how strong and true, eternal and yet ever new, uncomprehended and unbought, beyond all knowledge and all thought. 2 O heavenly love, how precious still in days of weariness and ill, in nights of pain and helplessness, to heal, to comfort, and to bless. 3 O wide embracing, wondrous love! We read you in the sky above, we read you in the earth below, in seas that swell and streams that flow. 4 We read you in the flowers, the trees, the freshness of the fragrant breeze, the song of birds upon the wing, the joy of summer and of spring. 5 We read you best in him who came to bear for us the cross of shame, sent by the Father from on high, our life to live, our death to die. 6 We read your power to bless and save even in the darkness of the grave; still more in resurrection light we read the fullness of your might. 7 O love of God, our shield and stay through all the perils of our way; eternal love, in you we rest, forever safe, forever blest.

I will sing the glorious praises of my God through all my days. Put no confidence in princes, nor on human help depend. They shall die, to dust returning; all their thoughts and plans shall end. 2 Happy are the ones professing Jacob's God to be their aid. They are blest whose hope of blessing on the LORD their God is stayed. Heaven and earth the LORD created, seas and all that they contain. He delivers from oppression; righteousness he will maintain. 3 Food he daily gives the hungry, sets the mourning prisoner free, raises those bowed down with anguish, makes the sightless eyes to see. God our Savior loves the righteous, and the stranger he befriends, helps the orphan and the widow, judgment on the wicked sends. 4 Praise the LORD! Sing hallelujah! Come, our great Redeemer praise. I will sing the glorious praises of my God through all my days. Over all God reigns forever; through all ages he is King. Unto him, your God, O Zion, joyful hallelujahs sing.
