I love this song

I also hope it is not illegal, unethical or immoral to post lyrics to a song on my blog. This is a song that I love. Thank you God for your love!


"The Love Of God" sang by MercyMe

The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell
The guilty pair, bowed down with care
God gave His Son to win
His erring child He reconciled
And pardoned from his sin

Could we with ink the ocean fil
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade

To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whol
Though stretched from sky to sky

Hallelujah

O love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure
The saints' and angels' song

You're fine posting song lyrics. The people in charge haven't ever targeted blogs over something like that. However, if you publish it in your next book, you'll need to get permission.

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure that this song is public domain by now anyway. Its a pretty old hymn, and one of my favs.
