Bright source of everlasting love!

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #128 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Bright source of everlasting love! To thee our souls we raise; And to thy matchless bounty rear A monument of praise. 2 Thy mercy gilds the path of life With ev'ry cheering ray; Kindly restrains the rising tear, Or wipes that tear away. 3 When, sunk in guilt, our race approach'd The borders of despair; Thy grace through Jesus' blood proclaim'd A free salvation near. 4 What shall we render, bounteous Lord, For all the grace we see? Alas! the goodness worms can yield Extendeth not to thee. 5 To tents of wo, to beds of pain, Our cheerful feet repair; And, with the gifts thy hand bestows, Relieve the mourners there. 6 The widow's heart shall sing for joy; The orphan shall be glad; And hung'ring souls we'll gladly point To Christ the living bread. 7 Thus, passing through this vale of tears, Our useful light shall shine; And others learn to glorify Our Father's name divine.
