¶Lyrics / Text

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 all other names above; love only knoweth whence it came and comprehendeth love. 3 We may not climb the heavenly steeps to bring the Lord Christ down; in vain we search the lowest deeps, for him no depths can drown: 4 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet a present help is he; and faith has still its Olivet, and love its Galilee. 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 our lips of childhood frame; the last low whispers of our dead are burdened with his name. 7 Alone, O Love ineffable, thy saving name is given; to turn aside from thee is hell, to walk with thee is heaven.
