Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heaven to earth come down;
Fix in us your humble dwelling;
All your faithful mercies crown!
Jesus, you art all compassion,
Pure unbounded love you are;
Visit us with your salvation;
Enter every trembling heart.

Come, Almighty to deliver,
Let us all your life receive;
Suddenly return and never,
Never more your temple leave.
You we would be always blessing,
Serve you as your hosts above,
Pray and praise you without ceasing,
Glory in Thy perfect love.

Finish, then, your new creation;
Pure and spotless let us be.
Let us see your great salvation
Perfectly restored in you;
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heaven we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before you,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise.
