GODS  LOVE ~ Pure as the whitest snow

GODS  LOVE ~ With me where'er I go

GODS  LOVE ~ Paying the debt I owe

O JESUS ~ YOUR LOVE !

 

GODS  LOVE ~ Calming my restlessness

GODS  LOVE ~ Showing me Holiness 

GODS  LOVE ~ Clearing up all my mess

O JESUS ~ YOUR LOVE !

 

GODS  LOVE ~ Lasts through Eternity

GODS  LOVE ~ There every day for me

O JESUS ~ YOUR LOVE ! 

 

GODS  LOVE ~ On Earth a rarity

GODS  LOVE ~ Shared with Humanity 

O JESUS ~ YOUR LOVE

    A fine hymn-poem B. I recognised the hymn on which it is based. Sometimes I may take almost entire lines, or may aim to adapt some lines of Scripture and/or lines of hymns. I just feel drawn more to traditional type hymns. Not to rubbish the modern though.

      TtHANKS STEVEN ~ GRAHAM KENDRICK is a Spirit Led Composer ~ in the style of CHARLES WESLEY and FANNY CROSBY and others ! With Songs like Servant King ~ Such Love etc there is a perfect symbiosis between the WORDS and the MUSIC ~ Holy Men (and Ladies) of God composed as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. Graham's are equally loved (and sung) right across all denominations ~ AMEN Yours BRIAN

      A beautiful set of praiseworthy traits we have as a gift from our Father above.

        Thanks FAY ~ Your responses are always a BLESSING ~ Yours BRIAN

        Super piece of composition Brian.

        • BRIAN & ANGELA

          Thanks MICHAEL I love the Poetic Structure of the original Hymn on which it is based A rhyming TRIPLET followed in each case bu a non-rhyming response ! In notation it would be aaaB cccB dddB etc. I altered it slight ly to get 14 lines ~ because I love SONNETS ! We had a rule about Love Sonnets (when we were in the Sixth Form) ~ If you can't express your LOVE in a SONNET (!4 lines) then it can't be True Love ~ Yours BRIAN

          The message radiates loud and clear . Reminds me of Psalms 136 .

          • BRIAN & ANGELA

            Thanks BROTHER ~ The message should always be CLEAR & PLAIN ~ AMEN Psalm 136 v 26 £O give thanks to the GOD of HEAVEN ~ His Mercy endures for EVER ~ AMEN ~ BRIAN !

            I am not sure why but I always thought of it in reverse, that God, Christ loved us, me. Just recently have I come to the love for Christ. Thanks.

              THANKS "A" It is in essence a Chicken & Egg situation. The BIBLE sys "We love JESUS because HE loved us FIRST !" Yours BRIAN
