一 神的大愛眞是遠超 筆所能描、口所能陳;
它比最高星宿還高,它比最深地獄還深。
始祖犯罪,驚恐自危,神賜愛子來救;
當人痛悔,神就迎歸,所有罪案全勾。
(副歌)哦,神的愛,何其豐富,何其無法測量!
它是堅強,存到永古,天使、聖徒同唱。
二 歲月消逝,榮華衰敗,天地廢去,事物更變,
人若拒絕神的大愛,那日惟有求助山巖;
神的大愛,不會改變,何其無法測量;
向人所顯救贖恩典,聖徒天使同唱。
三 縱令洋海盡是墨汁,無邊穹蒼都是白紙,
田間草桿根根筆枝,世上眾人個個文士;
若寫神的大愛無極,一切猶感缺欠;
墨乾,筆棄,紙罄,人撇,未能寫出半點。
1. The love of God is greater far,
Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
It goes beyond the highest star,
And reaches to the lowest hell;
The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
God gave His son to win;
His erring child He reconciled,
And pardoned from his sin.
Refrain
Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure,
The saints' and angels' song.
2. When Hoary time shall pass away,
And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall;
When men who here refuse to pray,
On rocks and hills and mountains call;
God's love, so sure, shall still endure,
All measureless and strong;
Redeeming grace to Adam's race
The saints' and angels' song.
3. Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made;
Were ev'ry stalk on earth a quill,
And ev'ry man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Tho' stretched from sky to sky.
