Grander Than Ocean’s Story

Grander than ocean’s sto­ry

Or songs of for­est trees;

Purer than breath of morn­ing

Or ev­en­ing’s gen­tle breeze;

Clearer than mount­ain ech­oes

Ring out from peaks ab­ove

Rolls on the glo­ri­ous an­them

Of God’s eter­nal love.

Dearer than any friend­ship

Our tru­est com­rades show;

Stronger than all the yearn­ing

A mo­ther’s heart may know;

Deeper than earth’s foun­da­tions

And far above all thought;

Broader than Heav’n’s high arch­es—

The love that Christ has brought.

Richer than all earth’s trea­sures

The wealth my soul re­ceives;

Brighter than roy­al jew­els

The crown that Je­sus gives;

Wondrous the con­des­cen­sion

And grace be­yond de­gree!

I would be ev­er sing­ing

The love of Christ to me.
