Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 150 hymnals Topics: Love Divine Lyrics: 1 O Love Divine! what hast Thou done! The incarnate God hath died for me! The Father's co-eternal Son Bore all my sins upon the tree: The incarnate God for me hath died; My Lord, my Love, is crucified. 2 Behold Him, all ye that pass by, The bleeding Prince of Life and Peace! Come, sinners, see your Saviour die, And say, was ever grief like His! Come, feel with me His blood applied; My Lord, my Love, is crucified. 3 Is crucified for me and you, To bring us rebels back to God; Believer, believe the record true; Ye all are bought with Jesus' blood; Pardon for all flows from His side; My Lord, my Love, is crucified. 4 Then let us sit beneath His cross, And gladly catch the healing stream; All things for Him account but loss, And give up all our hearts to Him; Of nothing think or speak beside My Lord, my Love is crucified.

We trust we were not made to die, for you have made us, you are just. 3 In you meet human and divine, the highest, holiest union known. We falsely call our powers our own until our wills with yours combine. 4 Our little systems have their day; they have their day and cease to be; They are but fleeting certainty, and you, O Christ, are more than they. 5 We have but faith; we cannot know, for knowledge is of things proved true; And yet we trust it comes from you, a sign of promise; let it grow. 6 Let knowledge grow from more to more, but more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, may make one music as before.
