God Loves Us

Author: Samuel Partridge Appears in 19 hymnals First Line: How dearly God doth love us Lyrics: 1 How dearly God doth love us, And this poor world of ours, To spread blue skies above us, And deck the earth with flow'rs! There's not a blossom lowly, Nor bird that cleaves the air, But tells, in accents holy, His kindness and his care. 2 He bids the sun to warm us, And light the path we tread; At night, lest aught should harm us, He guards our lowly bed. He gives our needful clothing, And sends our daily food; His love denies us nothing His wisdom deemeth good. 3 The Bible, too, he gave us, That tells how Jesus came, Whose word can save and cleanse us From guilt and sin and shame. O may God's mercies move us To serve him with our pow'rs; For O, how he doth love us, And this poor world of ours! Topics: Children's Hymns Used With Tune: WEBB
