ETERNAL depth of love divine,

By A Collection of Hymns


      L.M.
      1 ETERNAL depth of love divine,
      In Jesus, God with us, displayed;
      How bright thy beaming glories shine!
      How wide thy healing streams are spread!

      2 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!

      3 The dictates of thy sovereign will
      With joy our grateful hearts receive:
      All thy delight in us fulfil;
      Lo! all we are to thee we give.

      4 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.

      5 O King of glory, thy rich grace
      Our feeble thought surpasses far;
      Yea, even our crimes, though numberless,
      Less numerous than thy mercies are.

      6 Still, Lord, thy saving health display,
      And arm our souls with heavenly zeal;
      So fearless shall we urge our way
      Through all the powers of earth and hell.
