Eternal Depth Of Love Divine

Eternal depth of love divine,

In Jesus, God with us, displayed;

How bright Thy beaming glories shine!

How wide Thy healing streams are spread!

With whom dost Thou delight to dwell?

Sinners, a vile and thankless race:

O God, what tongue aright can tell

How vast Thy love, how great Thy grace!

The dictates of Thy sovereign will

With joy our grateful hearts receive:

All Thy delight in us fulfill;

Lo! all we are to Thee we give.

To Thy sure love, Thy tender care,

Our flesh, soul, spirit, we resign:

O fix Thy sacred presence there,

And seal the abode for ever Thine.

O King of glory, Thy rich grace

Our feeble thought surpasses far;

Yea, even our crimes, though numberless,

Less numerous than Thy mercies are.

Still, Lord, Thy saving health display,

And arm our souls with heav'nly zeal;

So fearless shall we urge our way

Through all the powers of earth and hell.
