From All Who Dwell in Heav’n Above

From all who dwell in Heav’n above

We hear the an­them

God is Love!

While thro’ the souls of all below

His ten­der mer­cies ev­er flow—

While thro’ the souls of all be­low

His ten­der mer­cies ev­er flow.

He sows the sun

like gold­en grain

On the blue eth­er’s bound­less plain

Yet in the soul His mer­cies are

More vast

more bright than ev­ery star—

Yet in the soul His mer­cies are

More vast

more bright than ev­ery star.

Oh

while the glo­ri­ous faith we own

Be love in all our acts made known;

Then blind­ed eyes shall ope to see

God is not wrath

but char­ity—

Then blind­ed eyes shall ope to see

God is not wrath

but char­ity.

Teach us

O Lord

like Thee

to give

To all that love where­in we live;

Till earth be­low to Heav’n above

Repeats the an­them

God is Love!

Till earth be­low to Heav’n above

Repeats the an­them

God is Love!
