Introit for Lent
O Love, How Deep
Author: Thomas à Kempis, 15th cent.; Benjamin Webb Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #258 (2023) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O love, how deep, how broad, how high Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high,
how passing thought and fantasy,
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals’ sake!
2 He sent no angel to our race,
of higher or of lower place,
but wore the robe of human frame,
and He Himself to this world came.
3 For us baptized, for us He bore
His holy fast, and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp He knew,
for us the tempter overthrew.
4 For us to wicked men betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed,
He bore the shameful cross and death
for us at length gave up His breath.
5 For us He rose from death again,
for us He went on high to reign,
for us He sent His Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
6 All glory to our Lord and God
for love so deep, so high, so broad—
the Trinity whom we adore
forever and forevermore. Topics: Jesus Christ Earthly Ministry Languages: English Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS

still seeking not himself, but us.

scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death,
