Representative Text

1 There is a song, a glad, sweet song
That thrills this soul of mine,
Its strains extol the King of kings,
Its theme is love divine.

Refrain:
O love divine, O love divine,
The grandest song of songs,
Lift up the heart, lift up the voice,
To God all praise belongs.
O love divine, O love divine,
The grandest song of songs,
Lift up the heart, lift up the voice,
To God all praise belongs.

2 He lov’d our little world so well
His only Son He gave,
That whosoever trusts in Him
Shall know His pow’r to save. [Refrain]

3 Shall conquer sin and mortal death,
And for the right be strong!
Come then, and test this love divine,
Come, learn the glad, sweet song. [Refrain]
