Love divine, all loves excelling

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 1,897 hymnals Topics: Christian unity 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.
