| 1. Thy grace, O Lord,
that measured once the deep
Of Calvary's woe, to seek
and save Thy sheep,
Has touched our hearts
and made them long for Thee,
Thyself our treasure
and our all to be.
2. Thy glory, Lord,
at God's right hand above,
Supreme of all
in that blest scene of love,
In sonship tells our hearts
their wondrous place,
In Thee accepted
by the Father's grace.
3. Thy fulness, Lord,
of light and love divine,
No thought can grasp,
nor human mind define
The whole vast scene
of glory will display
That fulness in
a quickly-coming day.
4. When all things filled
by Thee are wholly blest.
And God's deep love
eternally shall rest
In that which ever speaks
to Him of Thee,
Thy greatness, Lord,
the universe shall see.
5. Thy beauties, Lord,
Thy holy precious worth,
Surpassing far
the deepest joys of earth,
Attract our hearts ---
our joy Thy constant love
Thyself our object
in those scenes above.
