1. Jesus, Thy boundless love to me No thought can reach, no tongue declare; O, knit 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. Strange fires far from my soul 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. Still let Thy love point out my way; What wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my work, inspire my thought; And if I fall, soon may I hear Thy voice, And know that love is near. |
5. In suff'ring, be Thy love my peace; In weakness, be Thy love my power; And when the storms of life shall cease, Jesus in that eventful hour, In death, as life, be Guide and Friend, That I may love Thee without end. |
