Love

Music by Tom Fettke, arr. Tom Fettke and Joseph Linn

Words by Grace Hawthorne

1. Love explains what logic cannot know,

love’s the answer to the mystery;
愛能解釋邏輯不能理解的事，愛是那奧秘的答案；
love caused God to send His Son to man,
to die and set the helpless sinner free.
愛驅使上帝差祂的兒子降世，受死並釋放無助罪人。

* The love of God can span eternities with song,

the love of God no force has been as strong;
上帝的愛配受永遠歌頌，上帝的愛強於一切力量；
the love of God transforms the cross of Calvary
to endless life and victory.
上帝的愛把髑髏地的十架改變成永恆生命與勝利。

2. Love cannot be measured, held or weighed,

love is something hard to understand;
愛是不能觸摸或量度，愛是難以明白；
love’s the force that turns the world around,
and redesigns the lives of sinful man. *
愛就是改變世界和重整罪人生命的力量。

3. Love will last though prophecy shall cease,

先知講道之能必歸無有，愛卻是永不止息，
love rejoices when the truth is heard;
愛在真理傳揚時便得快樂；
love is patient and it will endure forevermore
as promised in God’s Word. *
愛是恆久忍耐且永遠長存，正如上帝的道所應許的。
