Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 347 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 86:11 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy boundless love to me no thought can reach, no tongue declare; O knit my thankful heart to thee, and reign without a rival there! Thine wholly, thine alone, I’d live; myself to thee entirely give. 2 O grant that nothing in my soul may dwell, but thy pure love alone; O may thy love possess me whole, my joy, my treasure, and my crown! All coldness from my heart remove; may every act, word, thought be love. 3 O Love, how gracious is thy way! All fear before thy presence flies; care, anguish, sorrow melt away where’er thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, nothing desire, or seek, but thee.

And Can It Be That I Should Gain

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 286 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 86:11-13 Lyrics: 1 And can it be that I should gain an int'rest in the Savior's blood? Died he for me, who caused his pain - for me, who caused his bitter death? Amazing love! How can it be that you, my Lord, should die for me? Amazing love! How can it be that you, my Lord, should die for me? 2 He left his Father's throne above - so free, so infinite his grace - emptied himself of all but love, and bled for Adam's helpless race! What mercy this, immense and free, for, O my God, it found out me! What mercy this, immense and free, for, O my God, it found out me! 3 Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature's night. Your sunrise turned that night to day; I woke - the dungeon flamed with light! My chains fell off, your voice I knew; I rose, went out, and followed you. My chains fell off, your voice I knew; I rose, went out, and followed you. 4 No condemnation now I dread, for Christ, and all in him, is mine! Alive in him, my living Head, and clothed in righteousness divine, bold I approach the eternal throne and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Bold I approach the eternal throne and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Topics: Atonement; Christ--Atonement; Salvation Used With Tune: SAGINA

Our voices we will raise the Three-in-One to sing, and thus proclaim in joyful song, both loud and long, that glorious name. 3 Here, gracious God, do thou for evermore draw nigh; accept each faithful vow, and mark each suppliant sigh. In copious shower on all who pray, each holy day thy blessings pour. 4 Here may we gain from heaven the grace which we implore; and may that grace, once given, be with us evermore, until that day when all the blest to endless rest are called away.
