The love of God is real to me,
It's deeper than the ocean,
Wider than the widest sea, and it set me free.
I've left the past behind-
What joy there was to find-
A friend so good and kind-
Oh, praise His name, I love Him much,
And He's never out of touch.
The love of God is real to me,
It's deeper than the ocean,
Wider than the widest sea, and it set me free.
I've left the past behind-
What joy there was to find-
A friend so good and kind-
Oh, praise His name, I love Him so,
And I want the world to know,
The love of God is real to me.
