Text:	Love From God, Our Lord
Author:	Johanne Schjorring

1 Love from God, our Lord,
Has forever poured
Like a fountain pure and clear.
In its quiet source,
In its silent course,
Doth the precious pearl appear.

2 Love from God, our Lord,
Comes with sweet accord
Like a pure and lovely bride.
Dwell within my heart,
Peace from God impart,
Heaven doth with Thee abide.

3 Love from God, our Lord,
Has to men restored
Life and spirit from above.
Who in love remains,
Peace from God obtains;
God Himself is ever love.
