Hymn 63

He left the splendour of heaven

Dottie Rambo

Verse 1

He left the splendour of heaven,

Knowing His destiny:

Was the lonely hill of Golgotha,

There to lay down His life for me.

Chorus

If that isn’t love, the ocean is dry;

There’s no star in the sky,

And the sparrow can’t fly;

If that isn’t love, then heaven is a myth;

There’s no feeling like this:

If that isn’t love.

Verse 2

Even in death He remembered,

The thief hanging by His side:

He spoke with love and compassion,

Then He took him to paradise.

Chorus

If that isn’t love, the ocean is dry;

There’s no star in the sky,

And the sparrow can’t fly;

If that isn’t love, then heaven is a myth;

There’s no feeling like this:

If that isn’t love.
