I have done some discussions here about topics such as once saved/always saved, sinning/christian, infilling of the Holy Ghost, modern versions of the bible compared to the KJB and is the KJB truly written by God. Anyway, for a time I have decided to take my old hymn book with so many beautiful songs in it and paraphrase (these are not copy written anymore) them because the lyrics display some beautiful aspects and thoughts of God. My paraphrasing is a very flimsy attempt, however, compared to the actual songs, so please excuse my clumsiness. If anyone would like to discuss the topics I've listed above, or any topic, Just let me know; I love discussions.
THE LOVE OF GOD by F. M. Lehman
If all the oceans on earth where made of ink and all the sky was a huge piece of paper and every star was a pen and every person wrote in the same language: "The Love Of God" on on this paper, it would drain all the oceans dry but still this would not even begin to contain the great love of God. It goes beyond the farthest star. Because of this Great love, He gave his son to win the guilty, to pardon and reconcile us to God.
THE CHORUS:
"Oh love of God, how rich and pure, how measureless and strong! It shall for evermore endure the saints and angles song."
In this chorus the word "endure" is used here to mean "to continue on in existence." as in forever.
The history of the actually writing of this whole song by Mr. Lehman is a miracle of God. You can read the story if you do a search of hymn search: the love of God" God Bless ")
