How wide the love of Christ!

It knows not class or race

But holds our one humanity

Within its broad embrace.

 

How long the love of Christ!

Its patience will not cease

Until this broken world is bound

In everlasting peace.

 

How high the love of Christ!

Beyond all thought it soars,

And yet upon our passing lives

Unmeasured mercy pours.

 

How deep the love of Christ,

Descending to a cross!

He bears within His wounded hands

All human pain and loss.

 

How Wide the Love of Christ, LSB, 535:1-4
