My song is Love Unknown
My song is love unknown,My Savior’s love to me;Love to the loveless shown,That they might lovely be.O who am I, that for my sakeMy Lord should take, frail flesh and die?
He came from His blest throneSalvation to bestow;But men made strange, and noneThe longed for Christ would know:But O my Friend, my Friend indeed,Who at my need His life did spend.
Here might I stay and sing,No story so divine;Never was love, dear King!Never was grief like Thine.This is my Friend, in Whose sweet praiseI all my days could gladly spend.
