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 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore 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.

no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies,
but take the dimness of my soul away.

all, all your own, soul, heart and strength and mind?
I see your cross: there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame,
the baptism of the heaven-descended dove,
my heart an altar and your love the flame. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

Of error and distrust,
And I shall sing your praises
Forever with the just.

Of light and life divine,
You did my soul deliver;
To you I all resign.
You have in mercy bought me
With blood and bitter pain;
Let me, since you have sought me,
Eternal life obtain.

Sweet peace into my heart,
And all my soul restoring,
Let me in grace depart.
And while his name confessing
Whom I by faith have known,
Grant me your constant blessing
And take me as your own.
