O the Depth of Love Divine
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: John 6:35-58 Lyrics: 1 O the depth of love divine,
the unfathomable grace!
Who shall say how bread and wine
God into us conveys!
How the bread his flesh imparts,
how the wine transmits his blood,
fills his faithful people’s hearts
with all the life of God!
2 Let the wisest mortals show
how we the grace receive;
feeble elements bestow
a power not theirs to give.
Who explains the wondrous way,
how through these the virtue came?
These the virtue did convey,
yet still remain the same.
3 How can spirits heavenward rise,
by earthly matter fed,
drink herewith divine supplies
and eat immortal bread?
Ask the Father’s wisdom how:
Christ who did the means ordain;
angels round our altars bow
to search it out, in vain.
4 Sure and real is the grace,
the manner be unknown;
only meet us in thy ways
and perfect us in one.
Let us taste the heavenly powers,
Lord, we ask for nothing more.
Thine to bless, ’tis only ours
to wonder and adore.

Eat this bread and never hunger,
drink this cup and never thirst;
Christ invites us to the table
where the last become the first.

Jesus touched forbidden ground;
and the woman, with a question,
told the world what she had found. [Refrain]

Jesus healed a man born blind;
soon the man became a witness
to the truth we seek and find. [Refrain]
3 Weeping for his friend at graveside,
Jesus felt the pain of death;
yet he knew God's power to waken:
living water, living breath. [Refrain] Used With Tune: MODESTO

O Come to Me, the Master Said
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: John 6:35 Lyrics: 1 O come to me, the Master said,
my Father knows your need;
and I shall be, the Master said,
your bread of life indeed.
By faith in him we live and grow
and share the broken bread,
and all his love and goodness know,
for so the Master said.
2 Abide in me, the Master said,
the true and living vine;
my life shall be, the Master said,
poured out for you as wine.
His body to the cross he gave,
his blood he freely shed,
who came in love to seek and save,
for so the Master said.
3 Believe in me, the Master said,
for I have called you friends,
and yours shall be, the Master said,
the life that never ends.
And so, with sin and sorrow past,
when death itself is dead,
the Lord shall raise us up at last,
for so the Master said.
