HYMN XVI.
[Love Divine, for whom I languish]
Love Divine, for whom I languish,
Bring relief To my grief,
To my spirit's anguish.
Bring relief To my grief,
To my spirit's anguish.
Ease of every heart-oppression,
O come in, End my sin,
Finish my transgression.
O come in, End my sin,
Finish my transgression.
Witness, seal of sin forgiven,
When Thou art In my heart,
Thou art instant heaven.
When Thou art In my heart,
Thou art instant heaven.
Ready made for my translation,
Then I prove; God is love,
Jesus is salvation.
Then I prove; God is love,
Jesus is salvation.
Then, partaker of Thy nature,
I fulfil All the will
Of my New-Creator.
I fulfil All the will
Of my New-Creator.

Into nothing sink before Thee,
Sink and rise, Grasp the prize,
See my Lord in glory.
Sink and rise, Grasp the prize,
See my Lord in glory.
