79. O Love Most Divine

1 O love divine, O blessed Jesus,
On Thee we lay every woe,
Though long the way we tread and weary,
Thou wilt not fail us we know.

Refrain:
O Love most divine teach us to sing,
Though long be life’s night and drear;
O Jesus on Thee our souls shall rest,
E’en though the dark valley be near.

2 O love divine upon Thee leaning,
Feeling our weakness and sin,
Give us Thy peace in time of trouble,
Make us more lowly within. [Refrain]

3 O love divine our richest blessing,
Boundless, yet ever so free,
Spring of life’s joy, in endless measure
May we drink deeply of Thee. [Refrain]
