Lyrics
Seo cuan gràidh thar meud na mara,
Coibhneas gràdhach dhuinn mar thuil,
Prionns’ na Beath’ ar n-èirig earbsach
Dòrtadh dhuinn gu fialaidh fhuil.
Cò nach cuimhnich air a Ghràdh-san;
Cò a sguireas sheinn a chliù?
Cha tèid E gu bràth air dìochuimhn’
Feadh gach là gu’n teirig ùin’.
Dh’fhosgladh dhuinn air Cnoc a’ Cheusaidh
Tobar domhainn, farsaing, fial;
‘S ann tre thuil-dhorsan a Ghràidh-san
Thaom làn-mara gràsmhor nìos.
Gràdh is gràs mar aibhnean siùbhlach
Dòrtadh cunbhalach o shuas;
Sìth nan Nèamhan ‘s ceartas fiorghlan
Pògadh saoghail chiontaich thruaillt’.
Lyrics Translated
Here is love, vast as the ocean
Loving kindness as the flood
When the Prince of Life, our Ransom
Shed for us His precious blood
Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten
Throughout Heaven's eternal days
On the mount of crucifixion
Fountains opened deep and wide
Through the floodgates of God's mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide
Grace and love, like mighty rivers
Poured incessant from above
And Heaven's peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love
