Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Love divine, all loves excelling
Joy of heav'n to earth come down.
Fix in us Thy humble dwelling
All Thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus Thou art all compassion
Pure, unbounded love Thou art
Visit us with Thy salvation
Enter every trembling heart.
VERSE 2
Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit
Into every troubled breast.
Let us all in Thee inherit
Let us find that second rest
Take away our bent for sinning
Alpha and Omega be
End of faith, as its beginning
Set our hearts at liberty.
VERSE 3
Come Almighty to deliver
Let us all Thy life receive;
Suddenly return and never
Never more Thy Temple leave
Thee we would be always blessing
Serve thee as Thy hosts above
Pray and praise Thee without ceasing
Glory in Thy perfect love.
VERSE 4
Finish then Thy new creation
Pure and spotless let us be.
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee
Changed from glory into glory
Till in heav'n we take our place
Till we cast our crowns before Thee
Lost in wonder, love, and praise.
