1  O Lord, Thy boundless love to me

    No thought 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.
