Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,861 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heav'n to earth come down!
Fix in us your humble dwelling,
All your faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, source of all compassion,
Love unbounded, love all pure;
Visit us with your salvation,
Let your love in us endure.
2 Come, almighty to deliver,
Let us all your life receive;
Suddenly return and never,
Never more your temples leave.
Lord, we would be always blessing,
Serve you as your hosts above,
Pray, and praise you without ceasing,
Glory in your precious love.
3 Finish then your new creation,
Pure and spotless, gracious Lord,
Let us see your great salvation
Perfectly in you restored.
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heav'n we take our place,
Till we sing before the almighty
Lost in wonder, love and praise. Topics: Advent; Baptism of Children; Marriage; Compassion; Heaven; Jesus Christ; Joy; Love of God for Us; Mercy; Petition; Salvation; Second Coming; Unity Scripture: Psalm 106:4 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1,223 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
Your head upon my breast."
I came to Jesus as I was,
So wear, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
And he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live."
I came to Jesus and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"I am this dark world's light;
Look unto me, your morn shall rise,
And all your day be bright."
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In him my star, my sun;
And in that light of life I'll walk
Till trav'ling days are done.
