O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High!

Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: The Worshipbook #518 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high! Beyond man's gift to prophesy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortals’ sake! 2 For us baptized, for us he bore His holy fast, and hungered sore; For us temptation sharp he knew; For us the tempter overthrew. 3 For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed, He bore the shameful cross and death; For us gave up his dying 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 strengthen, and to cheer. Amen. Topics: Christian Year Lent; Christian Year Easter Day; Christian Year Pentecost Scripture: Ephesians 3:18-19 Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS

Author: Benjamin Webb, 1820-85; Thomas à Kempis, 1380-1471 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #750 (1969) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high, How passing thought and fantasy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortals' sake! 2 He sent no angel to our race Of higher or of lower place, But wore the robe of human frame, And he himself to this world came. 3 Nor willed he only to appear, His pleasure was to tarry here; And God and Man with man would be The space of thirty years and three. 4 For us baptized, for us he bore His holy fast and hungered sore; For us temptation sharp he knew, For us the Tempter overthrew. 5 For us he prayed, for us he taught, For us his daily works he wrought, By words and signs and actions thus Still seeking not himself, but us. 6 For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed; He bore the shameful cross and death, For us he gave his dying breath. 7 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 strengthen, and to cheer. 8 In this great triumph of our King To God on high all praise we bring, To him all thanks and laud give we, The ever-blessèd Trinity. Amen. Topics: The Trinity The Redeemer Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS
