LOVED WITH EVERLASTING LOVE

1. Loved with everlasting love,
    Led by grace that love to know,
    Spirit breathing from above,
    Thou hast taught me it is so.
    Oh, this full and perfect peace!
    Oh, this transport all divine!
    In a love which cannot cease,
    I am his, and he is mine.

    CHORUS
    In a love which cannot cease,
    I am his, and he is mine.
 
2. Heaven above is softer blue,
    Earth around is sweeter green!
    Something lives in every time
    Christless eyes have never seen;
    Birds with gladder songs o’reflow,
    Flowers with deeper beauties shine,
    Since I know, as now I know,
    I am his, and he is mine.

    CHORUS
    Since I know, as now I know,
    I am his, and he is mine.

3. Things that once were wild arms
    Cannot now disturb my rest’
    Closed in everlasting arms,
    Pillowed on the loving breast,
    Oh, to lie for ever here,
    Doubt and care and self resign,
    While he whispers in my ear –
    I am his, he is mine!

    CHORUS
    While he whispers in my ear-
    I am his, he is mine!

4. His for ever, only his;
    Who the Lord, and me shall part?
    Ah, with what a rest of bliss
    Christ can fill the loving heart!
    Heaven and earth may fade and flee,
    First-born light in gloom decline!
    But, while God and I shall be,
    I am his, and he is mine.

    CHORUS
    But, while God and I shall be,
    I am his, and he is mine.
