‘I love,’ The great Redeemer cries,
Let mortals echo back the sound;
Whilst every tongue, ‘I love,’ replies,
Let every heart with joy abound.
But canst thou love—delightful thought!
Can sovereign grace descend so low?
Oh let our thankful hearts be taught,
Its wondrous heights and depths to know.
Lord, let thine image, like a seal,
Be stamped on every softening heart;
But all tumultuous thoughts be still,
Unhallowed passions thence depart.
When shall we hear the welcome call,
Come saints, to endless bliss remove;
There Christ shall be our all in all,
And we shall triumph in his love.
