Representative Text

1 Boundless as the mighty deep,
Pow’rful, perfect, pure,
Stronger than the winds that sweep,
Saviour, is Thy love,
Greater than all Knightly sway,
Which bends the vassel’s knee,
Grander than the shining day,
Dear Saviour, is Thy love.

Refrain:
Boundless, boundless love,
From Thy throne above,
Sent to sinners poor and lowly,
Sent to make them pure and holy,
Boundless, boundless love,
From Thy throne above,
Sent to sinners poor and lowly,
Boundless, boundless love.

2 Sweet and lowly in its might,
Stooping down to me,
Reaching from the heav’nly height,
Saviour, is Thy love,
Seeking those who dwell in sin,
With pleadings soft and sweet,
Peaceful midst a worldly din,
Dear Saviour, is Thy love. [Refrain]

3 Now within my heart it dwells,
Safe forever more,
To my soul a springing well,
Saviour, is Thy love,
Boundless is my Lord’s domain,
To me a guiding star,
For a world of sin to claim,
Dear Saviour, is Thy love. [Refrain]
