Hymn 002 - Love divine, all loves excelling
8.7.8.7.
Remember me, O Lord with Thy favour. Ps.106:4
- Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heav'n 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. - Come, almighty to deliver,
Let us all thy grace receive:
Suddenly return, and never,
Never more 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. - Finish then Thy new creation,
Pure and spotless let us be;
Let us see Thy great salvation,
Perfectly restor'd in Thee,
Chang'd 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.Amen.
