What was it, blessed God,
Led Thee to give Thy Son,
To yield Thy Well-beloved
For us by sin undone?
’Twas love unbounded led Thee thus,
’Twas love unbounded led Thee thus,
To give Thy Well-beloved for us.

What led Thy Son, O God,
To leave Thy throne on high,
To shed His precious blood,
To suffer and to die?
’Twas love—unbounded love to us,
’Twas love—unbounded love to us
Led Him to die and suffer thus.

Given the chaos in humanity, it would be reasonable to consider that God's focus in coming would be to fix problems however, this past week in prayer, praise and with others, I realized God motivation in the incarnation and redemption was love. This hymn expresses this beautifully. Thank You dear Father God for Your boundless love to us!

And how is it that is written of the Son of Man that He should suffer many things and be counted as nothing?

Perhaps it is because of having to wear hearing aids, but the piano on this site sounds as if is gong rather than a piano, so unless I copy the music by hand, and play it on my piano, I never know what new hymns really sound like. However, the words are marvelous. Praise our our Triune God for His marvelous love and sacrifice.
Praise you Lord so much love Romans 8:39 what love! what depth, what height, nor any other creature! nothing can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our LORD!
