Hymn 349 — We hear the words of love,
| 349 | H. BONAR (1808-1889) | S.M. |
| 1 |
We hear the words of love, We gaze upon the blood, We see the mighty Sacrifice, And we have peace with God. | |
| 2 |
'Tis everlasting peace, Sure as Jehovah's Name; 'Tis stable as His steadfast throne, For evermore the same. | |
| 3 |
Our love is oft-times low, Our joy still ebbs and flows; But peace with Him remains the same; No change Jehovah knows. | |
| 4 |
We change -- He changes not, Though changing years roll by; His love, not ours, the resting-place, We on His truth rely. | |
| 5 |
The cross still stands unchanged, Though heav'n is now His home; The mighty stone is rolled away, For He has left the tomb. | |
| 6 |
We know He liveth now At God's right hand above; We know the throne on which He sits, We know His truth and love. | |
