Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heaven to earth come down.
Fix in us thy humble dwelling,
All thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesu thou art all compassion,
Pure unbounded love thou art,
Visit us with thy salvation,
Enter every longing heart.
Come, Almighty o deliver,
Let us all thy grace receive.
Suddenly return and never,
Never more they temples leave.
The we always would be blessing,
Serve thee as thy hosts above.
Pray and praise thee without ceasing,
Glory in they perfect love.
Finish then they new creation,
Pure and spotless let us be,
Let us see they great salvation,
Perfectly restored in thee.
Changed from glory, into glory,
'Til in heaven we take out place,
'Til we cast our crowns before thee,
Lost in wonder, love and praise.
