1 I know what they sing in the glory above,
A wonderful song of the dear Savior’s love;
A love that was strong and a heart that was true,
A life that was given for me and for you.

Refrain:
Oh, sing of his love, his wonderful love,
The theme of their song in glory above;
Let melody rise till it melts in the skies,
A song of his love, his wonderful love.

2 Oh, sing of the One who was gentle and kind,
Restoring the leper and healing the blind;
Forgiving the erring and loving his foes,
Returning but blessing in answer to blows. [Refrain]

3 Oh, sing of the One who was willing to die
To save any soul that would only apply;
Oh, sing it as angels could sing it above,
Till hearts that are cold shall be melted with love. [Refrain]
