The love of God is limitless, Beyond all time or place, Beyond confines of East and West, Beyond the void of space; The love of God is fathomless, Beyond the depth of sea, Beyond the sun, the moon, the stars, Beyond Eternity. Within the love of God the world Doth on its axis turn; Within the sun, the love of God Doth cause the fires to burn; Within God's love the Universe Is subject to His voice. Unto His creature, Man, alone, He gives the power of choice. It was the love of God that gave The Christ that we might live; It was the love of God that did The Holy Spirit give; 'Twas love of God that made the world, The whole creative plan; Unbounded love that offers still Eternal Life to Man. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NURSE'S SONG, FR.
