[If willing to save all Thou art]
“God will have all men to be saved.”
—1 Tim. ii. 4.
If willing to save all Thou art,
Thou must be willing to save me;
Yet, if Thou dost not love impart,
To raise the dead, it cannot be.
Thou must be willing to save me;
Yet, if Thou dost not love impart,
To raise the dead, it cannot be.
Thee without love I cannot know;
I cannot taste Thy blessings given:
Love is the life of saints below,
Love is the life of saints in heaven.
I cannot taste Thy blessings given:
Love is the life of saints below,
Love is the life of saints in heaven.
Innocent love! it doth no ill,
But truly Thy commands obeys,
And leads us to Thy holy hill
Through peaceful paths and pleasant ways.
But truly Thy commands obeys,
And leads us to Thy holy hill
Through peaceful paths and pleasant ways.
Love only doth our souls secure
From anger, and desire, and pride;
And by this crown of grace mature,
The perfect law is satisfied.
From anger, and desire, and pride;
And by this crown of grace mature,
The perfect law is satisfied.
379
O were it pour'd into my heart,
O could I now to love begin,
This moment the first act exert,
And cease, this moment cease, from sin!
O could I now to love begin,
This moment the first act exert,
And cease, this moment cease, from sin!
Redeemer of the sinful kind,
If Thou hast given Thyself for me,
Found in Thy heart, O may I find
Salvation, life, and love in Thee!
If Thou hast given Thyself for me,
Found in Thy heart, O may I find
Salvation, life, and love in Thee!
Accomplishing Thine own desire
To have Thy ransom'd creature bless'd,
With charity Divine inspire,
And take possession of my breast:
To have Thy ransom'd creature bless'd,
With charity Divine inspire,
And take possession of my breast:
So shall I, Lord, to all proclaim,
In earth beneath, or heaven above,
There is no other saving name,
There is no other God but Love!
In earth beneath, or heaven above,
There is no other saving name,
There is no other God but Love!
