O Love Divine, How Sweet Thou Art!
When Shall I Find My Willing Heart
All Taken Up By Thee?
I Thirst, I Faint, I Die To Prove
The Greatness Of Redeeming Love,
The Love Of Christ To Me!

Stronger His Love Than Death Or Hell;
Its Riches Are Unsearchable;
The First-Born Sons Of Light
Desire In Vain Its Depths To See,
They Cannot Reach The Mystery,
The Length, And Breadth, And Height.

God Only Knows The Love Of God;
O That It Now Were Shed Abroad
In This Poor Stony Heart!
For Love I Sigh, For Love I Pine:
This Only Portion, Lord, Be Mine,
Be Mine This Better Part!

O That I Could For Ever Sit
With Mary At The Master’s Feet!
Be This My Happy Choice:
My Only Care, Delight, And Bliss,
My Joy, My Heaven On Earth, Be This,
To Hear The Bridegroom’s Voice!

O That With Humbled Peter I
Could Weep, Believe, And Thrice Reply
My Faithfulness To Prove,
“Thou Know’st (For All To Thee Is Known),
“Thou Know’st, O Lord, And Thou Alone,
Thou Know’st That Thee I Love!”

O That I Could With Favoured John
Recline My Weary Head Upon
The Great Redeemer’s Breast!
From Care, And Sin, And Sorrow Free,
Give Me, O Lord, To Find In Thee
My Everlasting Rest.
