O love divine, how sweet thou art!

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #324 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: The unsearchable Love of Christ Lyrics: 1 O love divine, how sweet thou art! When shall I find my longing heart All taken up by Thee! I thirst, I faint, and die to prove The greatness of redeeming love, The love of Christ to me. 2 Stronger His love than death or hell, Its reaches are unsearchable; The first-born sons of light Desire in vain its depths to see, They cannot reach the mystery, The length, and breadth, and height. 3 O that I could forever sit, With Mary at the Master’s feet! Be this my happy choice, My only care, delight, and bliss, My joy, my heaven on earth be this, To hear the Bridegroom’s voice. 4 O that I could with favour'd John Recline my weary head upon The dear Redeemer's breast! From care and sin, and sorrow free, Give me, O Lord, to find in Thee My everlasting rest. Scripture: Ephesians 3:17

To tear my soul from earth away, My Jesus to receive? 5 Nay, but I yield, I yield! I can hold out no more; I sink, by dying love compelled, And own Thee conqueror.

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #197 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Holy Spirit From the love of Christ; The wonderful love of Christ Lyrics: 1 Come let me love, or is my mind Harden'd to stone, or froze to ice? I see the blessed fair one bend, And stoop t'embrace me from the skies! 2 Oh! 'tis a thought would melt a rock, And make an heart of iron move, That those sweet lips, that heav'nly look, Should seek and wish a mortal love! 3 I was a traitor doom'd to fire, Bound to sustain eternal pains; He flew on wings of strong desire, Assum'd my guilt, and took my chains. 4 Infinite grace! almighty charms! Stand in amaze, ye rolling skies! Jesus, the God, extends his arms, Hangs on a cross of love, and dies. 5 Did pity ever stoop so low Dress'd in divinity and blood? Was ever rebel courted so, In groans of an expiring God? 6 Again he lives, and spreads his hands, Hands that were nail'd to torturing smart; "By these dear wounds," says he; and stands, And prays to clasp me to his heart. 7 Sure I must love; or are my ears Still deaf, nor will my passions move? Lord! melt this stubborn heart to tears; This heart shall yield to death or love.

Love divine, all love excelling

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #350 (1870) Topics: Love Of Christ Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all love 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 trembling heart! 2 Breathe, oh, breathe Thy loving spirit Into every troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit, Let us find Thy promised rest. Take away the love of sinning, Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. 3 Come, Almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy life receive; Graciously 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 precious love. 4 Finish then Thy new creation, Pure, unspotted may we be; Let us see Thy great salvation Perfectly restored in Thee! Change from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise. Languages: English
