297. O love that casts out fear

1 O love that casts out fear,
O love that casts out sin,
tarry no more without,
but come and dwell within.

2 True sunlight of the soul,
surround us as we go;
so shall our way be safe,
our feet no straying know.

3 Great love of God, come in!
Well-spring of heavenly peace,
thou living water, come:
spring up and never cease.

4 Love of the living God,
of Father and of Son,
love of the Holy Ghost,
fill thou each needy one.
