O Lord, Thy boundless love to me
|

|
| 1. | O Lord, Thy boundless love to me |
| | No though can reach, no tongue declare; |
| | Oh, knit my thankful heart to Thee, |
| | And reign without a rival there; |
| | Thine wholly, Thine alone I am; |
| | Lord, with Thy love my heart inflame. |
| 2. | Oh, grant that nothing in my soul |
| | May dwell but Thy pure love alone; |
| | Oh, may Thy love possess me whole, |
| | My joy, my treasure, and my crown; |
| | All coldness from my heart 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; |
| | Lord Jesus, nothing may I see, |
| | And naught desire, or seek, but Thee. |
