839. UNTIL YOU KNOW


IF you could own all the world and its money,
You could put up enough to reach the skies above,
If you could know everything,
You want to know about my faith,
Yet you’ve known nothing until you’ve
Known the love of God.

CHORUS

Until you know the loving hand
That reaches down to fallen man
And picks him up above the plain
Where he has trod
Until you know just how it feels,
To know that God is really real,
Then you’ve known nothing,
Until you know the love of God.

If in your lifetime you could meet everybody,
And you could call every name from here to yonder,
If you’ve not come face to face with Jesus
And His saving grace,
Friends you’ve known nothing,
Until you know the love of God.

If in your lifetime you could learn all the theology
And you could know every line of the scriptures,
If you’ve not known the Revelation
Of Malachi four and end-time seal,
Friends you’ve known nothing,
Until you know the love of God.
