Eternal Love

Eternal love, unending grace Compassion rich and free Are found upon the Savior’s face Are found at Calvary For there they mocked, and there He cried Forsaken and alone For there He bled and there He died To take me as His own Oh, I am mortal and undone A sinner, yet I see He sent for me His only Son What love He has for me! A love so great and infinite He heard my desperate cry A love so deep and passionate He rather chose to die And give up all His majesty His palace in the sky And live among such misery Than see me justly die For I deserved the awful death But He was there instead He finished all, gave up His breath And lay among the dead The grave could never hold him down Nor can it conquer me For when He rose to claim His crown I rose for all to see Yeshua conquered, grace to give What joy–He set me free! He paid the price for me to live What love He has for me! A love that chose to rescue me When I had gone astray Although I sinned so stubbornly He led me to His way A love that reads my heart and mind Yet sees beyond my sin He opened heaven’s gates to find My soul and let me in A love beyond my hopes or dreams No other love compares Like never-ending cleansing streams That take away my cares A love that daily bears with me And helps me learn and grow A love that clears my eyes to see And guides me as I go A love that always cares for me A love that knows no end My righteous King has come to be My Father and my Friend A love that faithfully forgives Whatever I have done He loves me with the love He gives His Son, the Righteous One! This love is why I live today This love is how I cope And in the darkest pit or fray This love is still my hope Eternal love, unending grace Compassion rich and free Are found upon the Savior’s face What love He has for me!
