Love divine, all loves excelling

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #428a (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Scripture: Ezekiel 11:23 Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling, joy of heav'n, to earth come down, fix in us thy humble dwelling, all thy faithful mercies crown. 2 Jesu, thou art all compassion, pure unbounded love thou art; visit us with thy salvation, enter ev'ry trembling heart. 3 Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit into ev'ry troubled breast; let us all in thee inherit, let us find thy promised rest. 4 Take away our love of sinning. Alpha and Omega be; end of faith, as its beginning, set our hearts at liberty. 5 Come, almighty to deliver, let us all thy grace receive; suddenly return, and never, nevermore thy temples leave. 6 Thee we would be always blessing, serve thee as thy hosts above; pray, and praise thee, without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love. 7 Finish then thy new creation, pure and spotless let us be; let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee. 8 Changed from glory into glory till in heav'n we take our place, till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.

O Love divine, how sweet thou art!

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Common Praise #541 (2000) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Scripture: Ezekiel 11:19 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, I die to prove the greatness of redeeming love, the love of Christ to me. 2 Stronger his love than death or hell; its riches are unsearchable: the first-born sons of light desire in vain its depth to see; they cannot reach the mystery, the length and breadth and height. *3 God only knows the love of God; O that it now were shed abroad in this poor stony heart! For love I sigh, for love I pine; this only portion, Lord, be mine, be mine this better part. 4 For ever would I take my seat 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! 5 Thy only love do I require, nothing on earth beneath desire, nothing in heaven above: let earth and heaven, and all things go, give me thine only love to know, give me thine only love.
