His Love, And Mine

The Son of God is more to me
Than all the world could ever be,
Because He died on Calvary's tree
From sin and death to set me free.

I was so much to Him, He came
To save from hell, from sin and shame.
Now, blessed be His matchless name,
I love His glories to proclaim,
And own o'er me His righteous claim.

His love to me
Is like the sea-
Fathomless;
My love to Him
Is faint and dim-
Shallowness.

As the slender fragile vine
Doth the massive oak entwine,
My soul to Christ doth cling-
My strength, my all, in Him is found.
In Him I've all things, and abound;
Well may I then with triumph sing.
