My Song Is Love Unknown 

By John Ireland

[Verse 1]
C           G6     Am    G  C                F
My song is love unknown, my Savior's love to me
     Dm     Em        Am                    Dsus4 D7 G
Love to the loveless shown, that they might love ly be
C   Bb    Dm      F     Am
Oh, who am I that for my sake,
G  C                       G6        C
My Lord should take frail flesh and die?

[Verse 2]
 C           G6           Am    G C          F
He came from his blessed throne salvation to bestow
     Dm       Em         Am                  Dsus   D7    G
But men made strange and none the longed-for Christ would know
 C  Bb    Dm         F        Am
But O! my friend, my friend indeed,
 G  C               G6       C
Who at my need, His life did spend.

[Verse 3]
C              G6        Am  G   C                 F
Sometimes they strew His way and His sweet praises sing
   Dm      Em      Am            Dsus D7  G
Resounding all the day, hosannas to their King
 C     Bb  Dm       F         Am
Then, "Crucify!" is all their breath,
 G   C                  G6        C
And for His death they thirst and cry.

[Verse 4]
 C            G6       Am  G  C                   F
Why, what has my Lord done to cause this rage and spite
   Dm       Em      Am                Dsus   D7   G
He made the lame to run, and gave the blind their sight
 C   Bb    Dm      F         Am
What injuries, yet these are why,
G   C                  G6      C
The Lord Most High so cruelly dies.

[Verse 5]
C                   G6    Am  G  C              F
They rise and needs will have my dear Lord made away
  Dm  Em        Am                  Dsus D7    G
A murderer they save, the Prince of Life they slay
 C  Bb       Dm    F         Am
Yet Cheerful He to suffering goes,
  G  C                 G6           C
That he his foes from thence might free.

[Verse 6]
C            G6       Am   G  C          F
Here might I stay and sing no story so divine
  Dm      Em         Am              Dsus  D7   G
Never was love, dear King, never was grief like Thine
 C   Bb    Dm        F           Am
This is my friend in whose sweet praise,
G   C                G6     C
I, all my days would gladly spend
