तू प्यार का सागर, सागर दया का तू है – 2x
तेरे प्यार के सागर में, हम तैरना चाहते हैं – 2x
1. गहराई मिले सागर की, ऊँचाई मिले आसमान की – 2
पर कोई नाप न पाएगा, गहराई तेरे प्यार की – 2
2. पतन दूर होने पर भी तू, मानव रूप धारण किया – 2
प्रभु तेरे इसी प्यार ने, हमको दीवाना बनाया – 2

1. Author and Origin
This song is an Indigenous Hindi Worship Song, widely attributed to the traditional Pentecostal and Evangelical movements in India. While many modern artists like Yogesh Masih and various church groups have recorded popular versions, it has its roots in the collective worship heritage of North Indian missions from the late 20th century.¹
2. Theology & Meaning
The song explores the Incomprehensibility of Divine Love:
- The Ocean Metaphor: Describing God as a “Sagar” (Ocean) emphasizes that His love is vast, deep, and life-sustaining. To “swim” (tairna) in it means to live completely immersed in His grace.
- The Dimension of Love: Stanza 1 suggests that while humans can measure the depths of physical oceans or the heights of the sky, the love of Christ is immeasurable by human standards.
- The Incarnation (Manav Roop): Stanza 2 touches on the core of the Gospel—that despite humanity’s “fall” (patan), God took on human form to reach us. This act of sacrificial love is described as “making us crazy” (deewana) or overwhelmed with devotion.²
3. Biblical Foundation
| Lyric Excerpt | Theological Theme | Primary Bible Verse |
| “Tu pyar ka sagar” | God is the source of Love | 1 John 4:8: “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”³ |
| “Koi naap na payega” | The Immeasurable Love | Ephesians 3:18-19: “To grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ… that surpasses knowledge.” |
| “Manav roop dharan kiya” | The Incarnation | Philippians 2:7: “Rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.” |
| “Patan door hone par” | Grace for the Fallen | Romans 5:8: “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”⁴ |
