1. Love di - vine, so great and won - drous, Deep and might - y, pure, sub - lime!

3. Love di - vine, so great and won - drous, All my sins He then for - gave!
4. In life’s ev - en - tide, at twi - light, At His door I’ll knock and wait;

Com - ing from the heart of Je - sus, Just the same through tests of time.
Brok - en - heart - ed, yet He healed me, He will heed the sin - ner’s cry.
I will sing His praise for - ev - er, For His blood, His power to save.
By the pre - cious love of Je - sus I shall en - ter Heav - en’s gate.
