HYMN Lyrics Text: Love Is His Word, Love Is His Way

1. Love is His word, love is His way

Feasting with men, fasting alone.

Living and dying, rising again,

Love, only love, is His way.

Richer than gold

Is the love of my Lord

Better than splendour and wealth

2. Love is His way, love is His mark,

sharing His last Passover feast.

Christ at His table,

Host to the twelve,

love, only love, is His mark

3. Love is His way, love is His mark,

bread for our strength,

Wine for our joy.

This is my Body.

This is my Blood

Love, only love, is His sign.

4. Love is His sign,

Love is his news

‘Do this’, He said, lest you forget

All My deep sorrow

all My dear blood.

Love, only love, is His news

5. Love is His news

Love is His Name.

We are His own, chosen and care

Family, brethren, cousins and kin

love, only love, is His Name.

6. Love is His Name,

Love is His Law.

Hear His command, all who are

Love one another

I have loved you’

Love, only love is His law.

7. Love, is His Law, Love is His word

Love of the Lord, Father and Word

Love of the Spirit, God ever One

Love, only love is His word.
