45. Made Perfect in Love

Father, united by Thy grace,
And each to each endeared,
With confidence we seek Thy face,
And know our prayer is heard.

Touched by the loadstone of Thy love,
Let all our hearts agree;
And ever towards each other move,
And ever move towards Thee.

Grant this, and then from all below
Insensibly remove!
Our souls their change shall scarcely know,
Made perfect first in love.

To us the ministry be given,
Which angels have above;
For love can make on earth a heaven,
And heaven is only love.
