MY GOD I LOVE THEE

  1. My God, I love you, though there were
    No heaven for me to win,
    No hell to punish those who dare
    Against your love to sin.
  2. Upon the Cross your wide embrace
    Made me, dear Lord, your own;
    The nails, the spear the long disgrace
    For me should all atone.
  3. That night of fear, those hours of pain,
    Those bitter griefs of yours,
    That death itself was borne, to gain
    A sinner’s love t’was mine.
  4. And shall the fear of hell below
    Or hope of heaven above
    Be all the reason heart can know
    This loving Lord to love.
  5. The love that asks not anything.
    Love like, your own love free,
    Jesus I give, who art my king,
    Who art my God, to thee.
