GOD’S PLAN OF LOVE
Oh, Love Divine, what greater thought
That you should suffer, bleed and die
To pay my sin, my freedom bought
Though I screamed Crucify
With every action of my life
I cast aside your pleading cries
I caused you pain, I gave you strife
And chose to follow after lies
I could not see your beauty then
As now I see your face
Your light shone forth, e’er so dim
That I might see Your Grace
You drew me out, you pulled me in
That I might then seek you
You covered then my ugly sin
Your righteousness to view
Such love Divine, pursuing me
Your Joy and Hope to share
How could I run, How could I flee
Naught else could e’er compare
Unto the hope I find in You
As now I turn to seek your Face
Your Glory shines and lights my view
You guide me on at gentle pace
Transforming thus my wretched heart
Unto the one You knew I’d be
Your joyous love ne’er to depart
For all eternity.
