COME, DEAREST LORD, DESCEND AND DWELL

Come, dearest Lord, descend and dwell

By faith and love in ev'ry breast;

Then shall we know and taste and feel

The joys that cannot be expressed.


Come, fill our hearts with inward strength;

Make our enlarged souls possess

And learn the height, and breadth, and length

Of thine unmeasurable grace.


Now to the God whose pow'r can do

More than our thoughts or wishes know,

Be everlasting honors done

By all the church, through Christ his Son.
