Lord divine all loves excelling

 

Lord divine all loves excelling

Joy of heaven 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

 

Breath O breath Thy loving Spirit

Into every troubled breast

Let us all in Thee inherit

Let all find Thy promised rest

Take away the love of sinning

Alpha and Omega be,

End of faiths as if its beginnings

Set our hearts at liberty

 

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 hosted above

Pray and Praise Thee without ceasing

Glory in thy perfect love.

 

Finish then Thy new creation

Pure and spotless may we be

Let us see our whole salvation

Perfectly restored in Thee

Changed from glory into glory

Till in heaven we take our place

Till we cast our crowns before Thee

Lost in wonder, love and praise.
