O Jesus, King most wonderful

Thou fount of living fire, surpassing all the joys we know, and all we can desire: 4 Jesus, may all confess thy name, thy wondrous love adore; and, seeking thee, themselves inflame to seek thee more and more. 5 Thee may our tongues for ever bless, thee may we love alone, and ever in our lives express the image of thine own. 6 Abide with us, and let thy light shine, Lord, on every heart; dispel the darkness of our night, and joy to all impart. 7 Jesus, our love and joy, to thee, the Father's only Son, all might, and praise, and glory be, while endless ages run.

(Chorus) 3 Now I've giv'n to Jesus everything; Now I gladly own Him as my King; Now my raptured soul can only sing Of Calvary. (Chorus) 4 O, the love that drew salvation's plan! O, the grace that brought it down to man! O, the mighty gulf that God did span At Calvary.
