| 1. Come, dearest Lord,
descend and dwell
By faith and love in every breast;
Then shall we know,
and taste, and feel
The joys that cannot be expressed.
2. Come, fill our hearts
with inward strength,
Make our enlargèd souls possess,
And learn the height,
and breadth, and length
Of Thine unmeasurable grace.
3. Now to the God
Whose power can do
More than our thoughts
or wishes know,
Be everlasting honors done
By all the church,
through Christ His Son.
