Love divine, all loves excelling

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Appears in 1,936 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of Heaven, to earth come down, Fix in us thy humble dwelling, All thy faithful mercies crown. Jesus, thou art all compassion, Pure, unbounded love thou art; Visit us with thy salvation, Enter every longing heart. 2 Come, almighty to deliver, Let us all thy grace receive; Suddenly return, and never, Never more thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, Serve thee as thy hosts above; Pray and praise thee without ceasing, Glory in thy perfect love. 3 Finish then thy new creation, Pure and spotless let us be; Let us see thy great salvation, Perfectly restored in thee. Changed from glory into glory, Till in Heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before thee, Lost in wonder, love and praise.

Love divine, from Jesus flowing

Author: Elizabeth MacKenzie (1853-1943) Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 Love divine, from Jesus flowing, Living waters rich and free, Wondrous love without a limit, Flowing from eternity; Boundless ocean, I would cast myself on thee. 2 Love surpassing understanding, Angels would the mystery scan, Yet so tender that it reaches To the lowest child of man. Let me, Jesus, Fuller know redemption’s plan. 3 Love that pardons past transgression, Love that cleanses every stain, Love that fills to overflowing Yet invites to drink again; Precious fountain, Which to open Christ was slain. 4 From my soul break every fetter, Thee to know is all my cry; Saviour, I am thine for ever, Thine I’ll live and thine I’ll die, Only asking More and more of love’s supply.

O Christ of pure and perfect love

Author: William Booth (1829-1912) Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O Christ of pure and perfect love, Look on this sin-stained heart of mine! I thirst thy cleansing grace to prove, I want my life to be like thine. O see me at thy footstool bow, And come and sanctify me now! 2 What is it keeps me out of all 1 The love and faith and fire I need? O drive thy foes from out my soul Whate’er it cost, howe’er I bleed! No sin-cursed thing shall I allow If thou wilt sanctify me now. 3 In vain my fearful heart points back To failures in dark days gone by; These shall not drive me from the track Of heavenly flame once more brought nigh. To keep thy grace thou’lt show me how, So come and sanctify me now. 4 O pour on me the cleansing flood, Nor let thy side be cleft in vain! ‘Tis done, I feel the precious blood Does purge and keep from every stain. To all the world I dare avow That Jesus sanctifies me now.

O God of light, O God of love

Author: Arthur Sydney Booth-Clibborn (1854-1938) Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O God of light, O God of love, Shine on my soul from Heaven above! Let sin appear in thy pure ray As black as on the judgment day; Let perfect love apply the test, And all that’s wrong make manifest. 2 O take thy plummet and thy line, Apply them to this heart of mine, And thus reveal each crooked place By contrast with true righteousness! Let holy truth condemn each sham; Show what thou art, and what I am. 3 O smite and spare not, faithful God! A Father’s hand still holds the rod; O make my sin-stained conscience smart, And write thy law upon my heart So plainly, that my will shall bow In full surrender, here and now! 4 Work on in me thy perfect will, In me thy promise, Lord, fulfil; O make me quick to fight for thee, And set my soul at liberty! My soul can rest in nothing less Than in a spotless holiness.
O God of light, O God of love

O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine

Author: William Booth (1829-1912) Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine, When shall I know and feel thee mine Without a doubt or fear? With anxious, longing thirst I come To beg thee make my heart thy home, And keep me holy here. 2 What is there that I will not give To have thee ever with me live A conquering Christ within? My life, my all, this blessèd day Down at thy precious feet I lay, To be redeemed from sin. 3 O God of pentecostal fame, Can I not have that living flame Burning where’er I go? From sin and self and shame set free, Can I not lead lost souls to thee, And conquer every foe? 4 I can, I do just now believe, I do the heavenly grace receive, The Spirit makes me clean. Christ takes the whole of my poor heart, No sin shall ever from me part My Lord who reigns supreme.
O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine

At thy feet I fall

Author: Catherine Booth-Clibborn (1858-1955) Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: O Lamb of God, thou wonderful sin-bearer Lyrics: 1 O Lamb of God, thou wonderful sin-bearer, Hard after thee my soul doth follow on; As pants the hart for streams in desert dreary, So pants my soul for thee, O thou life-giving one. Refrain: At thy feet I fall, Yield thee up my all, To suffer, live or die for my Lord crucified. 2 I mourn, I mourn the sin that drove thee from me, And blackest darkness brought into my soul; Now I renounce the cursed thing that hindered, And come once more to thee to be made fully whole. 3 Descend the heavens, thou whom my soul adoreth! Exchange thy throne for my poor longing heart. For thee, for thee I watch as for the morning; No rest, no joy I find when from thee I’m apart. 4 Come, Holy Ghost, thy mighty aid bestowing! Destroy the works of sin, the self, the pride; Burn, burn in me, my idols overthrowing; Prepare my heart for him, for my Lord crucified.
At thy feet I fall

All Authority and Power

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Challenge Lyrics: 1 All authority and power, every status and domain, now belongs to one who suffered our redemption to obtain; angels, demons, kings and rulers, over all shall Jesus reign! 2 All the nations owe him worship, every tongue shall call him Lord; how are they to call upon him if his name they have not heard? Therefore go and make disciples, preach his gospel, spread his Word. 3 All the clear commands of Jesus must be heeded and obeyed; full provision for our weakness in his teaching he has made; in the Gospel words and symbols saving truth to us conveyed. 4 All the time he will be with us, always, to the end of days; with his own believing people who keep steadfast in his ways; God the Father, Son and Spirit, bless us, and to God be praise! Scripture: Matthew 28:18-20 Used With Tune: UNSER HERRSCHER
