An original hymn with text by Kathryn W. Hales below.
Only God can count
the pain,
Only He can
measure the sorrow,
Only He weighs the
broken hearts
Or lonely grief
that no one borrows.
Only God can count
the drops
Of crimson blood
that He shed,
Only He measures
with exactness
By plaited thorns that
pierced His head.
Only God weighs on
His scale
The burden of a
broken heart
For His was
stilled on Calvary
In grace that only
He imparts.
He counted,
measured, weighed
The grief, the
pain, the sorrow,
And bore it all,
yea for every man,
Yesterday, today,
and tomorrow.
