And will the Lord thus condescend

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #202 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Holy Spirit From the love of Christ Lyrics: 1 And will the Lord thus condescend To visit sinful worms? Thus at the door shall mercy stand In all her winning forms? 2 Surprising grace!--and shall my heart Unmov'd and cold remain? Has this hard rock no tender part? Must mercy please in vain? 3 Shall Jesus for admission sue-- His charming voice unheard? And this vile heart, his rightful due, Remain for ever barr'd? 4 'Tis sin, alas, with tyrant pow'r, The lodging has possest; And crowds of traitors bar the door Against the heav'nly guest. 5 Ye dang'rous inmates, hence depart: Dear Saviour, enter in, And guard the passage to my heart, And keep out every sin.

Jesus, Thy boundless love to me

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #203 (1898) Topics: Christ Love of; Christ Love of Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me No thought can reach, no tongue declare; Unite my thankful heart to Thee, And reign without a rival there. Thine wholly, Thine alone I am; Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 Oh, grant that nothing in my soul May dwell, but Thy pure love alone! Oh, may Thy love possess me whole, And be my treasure, and my crown! Strange flames far from my heart remove; May every act, word, thought, be love! 3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray! All pain before thy presence flies: Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire or seek but Thee! 4 O draw me, Saviour, after Thee! So shall I run and never tire. With gracious words still comfort me; Be Thou my hope, my sole desire. Free me from every weight: not fear No sin can come, if Thou art here. 5 From all eternity, with love Unchangeable Thou hast me viewed; Ere knew this beating heart to move, Thy tender mercies me pursued. Ever with me may they abide, And close me in on every side. 6 Still let Thy love point out my way; What wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my word, inspire my thought; And if I fall, soon may I hear Thy voice, and know that love is near. 7 In suffering, be Thy love my peace; In weakness, be Thy love my power; And when the storms of life shall cease, Jesus, in that dark final hour Of death, be Thou my guide and friend, That I may love Thee without end.
