Wondrous Love

By Allen Francis Gage

ALLEN FRANCIS GAGE
“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.” 1 John 3:1.
WHAT wondrous love, divinely fair, The Father hath to mankind given; More to be prized than jewels rare, The best and richest gift of heaven.
Its depths can never fathomed be; Its height man never may attain; Its power eternal years shall see, For love’s bright glory ne’er shall wane.
Eternal as its Author’s name, Enduring as the heavens above, It doth to all the earth proclaim That God is righteous, God is love.
Respond ye to this love divine; Love him who first had love for thee; Yield now to him thyself and thine; In love’s great gift God’s goodness see.
