My Song Is Love Unknown

Author: Samuel Crossman Hymnal: Mor1995 #482 (1995) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown, my Savior's love for me, love to the loveless shown that they might lovely be. O who am I that for my sake my Lord should take frail flesh, and die? 2 He came from heaven’s throne salvation to bestow, but people scorned and none the longed-for Christ would know. But O my friend, my friend indeed, who at my need his life did spend. 3 Here might I stay and sing, no story so divine: never was love, dear King, never was grief like thine. This is my friend, in whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend.

O Jesus, Highest Treasure

Author: Salomo Liscovius; Frederick William Foster Hymnal: Mor1995 #484 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, highest treasure, in your communion blessed I find unfailing pleasure, true happiness and rest; myself a willing off'ring I give to you alone, because by death and suff'ring you did for me atone. 2 O Joy, all joys excelling, the Bread of Life, the Way, you came to make your dwelling in sinful hearts to stay. My spirit’s hungry craving you can forever still; from deepest anguish saving, with bliss my cup can fill. 3 O let my eyes be lightened by sight of your dear face; my life below be brightened by tasting of your grace; without you, mighty Savior, to live is naught but pain; to have your love and favor is happiness and gain. 4 Earth’s glory to inherit is not what I desire; to heav'n aspires my spirit, to glow with nobler fire; where Christ himself appearing in brightest majesty, for me a place preparing, there, there I long to be.

O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High

Author: Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Mor1995 #485 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high, beyond all thought and fantasy, 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 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. 4 For us by wickedness betrayed, scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed, he bore the shameful cross and death, for us gave up his dying breath. 5 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. 6 All glory to our Lord and God for love so deep, so high, so broad — the Trinity, whom we adore forever and forevermore.
