As Methodists enter a season of renewing their Covenant with God, this hymn is a reminder that, whatever might befall, we cannot be separated from Love.
1 God's love can never be undone,
the covenant be broken,
God's mercy never fades or ends,
the source of grace has spoken.
2 No disobedience demands
a final separation,
whatever we have said or done
brings us no condemnation.
3 Our history shows a God of love,
not one of crass rejection,
audacious love is ours because
of God's divine affection.
Andrew Pratt (born 1948)
