Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 347 hymnals Scripture: John 15:13 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy boundless love to me
no thought can reach, no tongue declare;
O draw my thankful heart to thee,
and reign without a rival there!
Thine wholly, thine alone, I am;
be thou alone my constant flame.
2 O, grant that nothing in my soul
may dwell, but thy pure love alone;
O, may thy love possess me whole,
my joy, my treasure, and my crown!
All coldness from my heart remove;
my every act, word, thought, be love.
3 In suffering be thy love my peace,
in weakness be thy love my power;
and when the storms of life shall cease,
O Jesus, in that final hour,
be thou my rod and staff and guide,
and draw me safely to thy side!

Come Down, O Love Divine
Author: Richard Frederick Littledale (1833-1890); Bianco da Siena (d. 1434) Meter: 6.6.11 D Appears in 109 hymnals Scripture: John 15:26 Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love Divine,
seek out this soul of mine,
and visit it with your own ardour glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes, in its heat consuming;
and let your glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 Let holy charity
my outward vesture be,
and lowliness becomes my inner clothing;
true lowliness of heart,
which takes the humbler part,
and o'er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.
4 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
we cannot guess its grace,
till he become the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling. Topics: Our Response to Christ In Penitence; The Holy Spirit The Coming of the Spirit; Holy Spirit as Comforter; Humility; Longing; Purity Of Heart Used With Tune: DOWN AMPNEY

él llevó nuestro dolor;
Él nos manda que llevemos
todo a Dios en oración.
¿Vive el hombre desprovisto
de paz, gozo y santo amor?
Esto es porque no llevamos
todo a Dios en oración.
2 ¿Andes débil y cargado
de cuidados y temor?
A Jesús, refugio eterno,
dile todo en oración.
¿Te desprecian tus amigos?
cuéntaselo en oración;
En sus brazos gozo tierno,
paz tendrá tu corazón.
3 Jesucristo es nuestro Amigo:
de esto prueba nos mostró,
Pues a redimirnos vino;
por nosotros se humanó.
El castigo de su pueblo
en su muerte él sufrió;
Cristo es un Amigo eterno;
sólo en él confío yo.

Abiding in me, much fruit ye shall bear;
"Dwelling in thee, my promise unbroken,
Glory in heav'n with me ye shall share. [Chorus]

Walking in love as children of day;
Follow your Guide, he passed on before you,
Leading to realms of glorious day. [Chorus]

A guide, a comforter, bequeathed
With us to dwell.

And victory won.

And worthier thee. Topics: The Holy Spirit; The Source of Every Good Gift
