Lyrics
1. Immortal Love for ever full, For ever flowing free, For ever shared, for ever whole, A never-ebbing sea. 2. Our outward lips confess the name 3. We may not climb the heavenly steeps 4. But warm, sweet, tender, even yet |
5. The healing of his seamless dress Is by our beds of pain; We touch him in life’s throng and press, And we are whole again. 6. Through him the first fond prayers are said 7. Alone, O Love ineffable, |
