O love! beyond conception great

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #98 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O love! beyond conception great, That form'd the vast, stupendous plan! Where all divine perfections meet To reconcile rebellious man! 2 There wisdom shines in fullest blaze, And justice all her rights maintains: Astonish'd angels stoop to gaze, While mercy o'er the guilty reigns. 3 Yes, mercy reigns, and justice too-- In Christ harmoniously they meet: He paid to justice all her due, And now He fills the mercy-seat. 4 Such are the wonders of our God, And such th'amazing depths of grace, To save from wrath's vindictive rod. The sons of Adam's fallen race. 5 With grateful songs then let our souls Surround our gracious Father's throne; And all between the distant poles His truth and mercy ever own.
