O Love! How Deep

Author: John M. Neale Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #419 (1929) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Choral Section Birth of Christ First Line: O love! how deep, how broad, how high Lyrics: 1. O love! how deep, how broad, how high; It fills the heart with ecstasy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortal's sake. 2. He sent no angel to our race, Of higher or of lower place, But wore the robe of human frame Himself, and to this lost world came. 3. For us He prayed, for us He taught, For us His daily works He wrought, He bore the shameful cross and death; For us at length gave up His breath. 4. For us He rose from death again, For us He went on high to reign, For us He sent His Spirit here To guide, to stengthen and to cheer. Languages: English Tune Title: EISENACH

Lord, Thy Death and Passion Give

Lord, Thy death and passion give Strength and comfort in my need. Ev'ry hour while here I live, On Thy love my soul shall feed. Thou didst death for me endure, And I shun all thoughts impure; Thinking on Thy bitter pains, Hushed in prayer my heart remains. 2. Thy blest cross hath pow'r to heal All the wounds of sin and strife. Lost in Thee, my heart doth feel Sudden warmth and nobler life, In my saddest, darkest grief, Let Thy sweetness bring relief. Thou who camest but to save, Thou who fearest not the grave! 3. Lord, in Thee I place my trust, Thou art my Defense and Tow'r; Death Thou treadest in the dust, O'er my soul he hath no pow'r. That I may have part in Thee, Help and save and comfort me; Give me of Thy grace and might, Resurrection, life and light. 4. Fount of good, within me dwell, For the peace Thy presence sheds Keeps us safe in conflict fell, Stills the pain from dying beds. Hide me safe within Thine arm, Where no foe can hurt or harm; Whoso, Lord, in Thee doth rest, He hath conquered, he is blest. Languages: English Tune Title: O LIEBE MEINER LIEBE

Ah, Lord, our sins arraigned Thee, And nailed Thee to the tree; Our pride, O Lord, disdained Thee; Yet deign our hope to be. 3. O glorious King, we bless Thee, No longer pass Thee by; O Jesus, we confess Thee The Son enthroned on high. Lord, grant to us remission; Life through Thy death restore; Yea, grant us the fruition Of life forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD

I will suffer naught to hide Thee, Naught I ask beside Thee. 2. In Thine arms I rest me, Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here; Though the earth be shaking, Ev'ry heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; Fires may flash and thunder crash, Yea, and sin and hell assail me, Jesus will not fail me. 3. Hence with early treasure! Thou art all my pleasure, Jesus, all my choice; Hence, thou empty glory! Naught to me thy story, Told with tempting voice; Pain or loss, or shame, or cross, Shall not from my Savior move me, Since He deigns to love me. 4. Fare thee well that errest, Thou that earth preferrest, Thou wilt tempt in vain; Fare thee well, transgressions, Hence, abhorred possession, Come not forth again. Past your hour, O pride and pow'r, Worldly life, thy bonds I sever, Fare thee well forever! 5. Hence, all fear and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; Those who love the Father, Tho' the storms may gather, Still have peace within; Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Thou art still my purest pleasure Jesus, priceless treausre.
