1 Infinite, unexhausted Love! Jesus and love are one; If still to me thy bowels move, They are restrain'd to none. 2 What shall I do my God to love! My loving God to praise? Thy length, and breadth, and height to prove, And depth of sov'regin grace? 3 Thy sov'reign grace to all extends, Immense and unconfin'd; From age to age it never ends, It reaches all minkind. 4 Throughout the world its breadth is known, Wide as infinity! So wide, it never pass'd by one, Or it had pass'd by me. 5 My trespass was grown up to heav'n; But far above the skies, In Christ abundantly forgiv'n, I see thy mercies rise! 6 The depth of all-redeeming love What angel-tongue can tell? O may I to the utmost prove The gift unspeakable? 7 Come quickly, gracious Lord, and take Possession of thine own! My longing heart vouchsafe to make Thine everlasting throne! 8 Assert thy claim, maintain thy right, Come quickly from above; And sink me to perfection's height, The depth of humble love. | A Pocket Hymn Book: designed as a constant companion for the pious, collected from various authors (9th ed.) #LVI (1791) A Pocket hymn-book, designed as a constant companion for the pious: collected from various authors (11th ed.) #LVI (1790) A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious: collected from various authors #LVI (1788) |
