Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Sheet Music
Lyrics
1. 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 ev'ry longing heart.
2. Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit into ev'ry troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit; let us find that blessed rest. Take away our bent to sinning; Alpha and Omega be; end of faith, as its beginning, set our hearts at liberty.
3. Come, Almighty to deliver, let us all Thy light receive; Lord, abide in us and never, nevermore Thy temple leave. Thee we would be always blessing, serve Thee as Thy hosts above, pray and praise Thee without ceasing, glory in Thy perfect love.
4. Finish, then, Thy new creation; pure and spotless let us be. Let us see Thy great salvation perfectly revealed in Thee; changed from glory into glory when in heav'n we take our place, when we wear our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.
