Immortal Love forever full	A
Forever flowing free	B
Forever shared forever whole	C
A never ebbing sea	B
	-
Our outward lips confess the name	D
All other names above	E
Love only knoweth whence it came	D
And comprehendeth love	E
	-
Blow winds of God awake and blow	F
The mists of earth away	G
Shine out O Light Divine and show	F
How wide and far we stray	G
	-
Hush every lip close every book	H
The strife of tongues forbear	G
Why forward reach or backward look	H
For love that clasps like air	G
	-
We may not climb the heavenly steeps	B
To bring the Lord Christ down	I
In vain we search the lowest deeps	B
For Him no depths can drown	I
	-
Nor holy bread nor blood of grape	J
The lineaments restore	G
Of Him we know in outward shape	J
And in the flesh no more	G
	-
He cometh not a king to reign	K
The world's long hope is dim	L
The weary centuries watch in vain	K
The clouds of heaven for Him	L
	-
Death comes life goes the asking eye	M
And ear are answerless	B
The grave is dumb the hollow sky	M
Is sad with silentness	B
	-
The letter fails and systems fall	N
And every symbol wanes	B
The Spirit over brooding all	N
Eternal Love remains	B
	-
And not for signs in heaven above	E
Or earth below they look	H
Who know with John His smile of love	E
With Peter His rebuke	O
	-
In joy of inward peace or sense	B
Of sorrow over sin	P
He is His own best evidence	B
His witness is within	P
	-
No fable old nor mythic lore	G
Nor dream of bards and seers	B
No dead fact stranded on the shore	G
Of the oblivious years	B
	-
But warm sweet tender even yet	Q
A present help is He	B
And faith has still its Olivet	Q
And love its Galilee	B
	-
The healing of His seamless dress	B
Is by our beds of pain	K
We touch Him in life's throng and press	B
And we are whole again	R
	-
Through Him the first fond prayers are said	Q
Our lips of childhood frame	D
The last low whispers of our dead	Q
Are burdened with His name	D
	-
Our Lord and Master of us all	N
Whate'er our name or sign	S
We own Thy sway we hear Thy call	N
We test our lives by Thine	S
	-
Thou judgest us Thy purity	B
Doth all our lusts condemn	T
The love that draws us nearer Thee	B
Is hot with wrath to them	T
	-
Our thoughts lie open to Thy sight	Q
And naked to Thy glance	B
Our secret sins are in the light	Q
Of Thy pure countenance	B
	-
Thy healing pains a keen distress	B
Thy tender light shines in	P
Thy sweetness is the bitterness	B
Thy grace the pang of sin	P
	-
Yet weak and blinded though we be	B
Thou dost our service own	U
We bring our varying gifts to Thee	B
And Thou rejectest none	V
	-
To Thee our full humanity	B
Its joys and pains belong	W
The wrong of man to man on Thee	B
Inflicts a deeper wrong	W
	-
Who hates hates Thee who loves becomes	B
Therein to Thee allied	Q
All sweet accords of hearts and homes	B
In Thee are multiplied	Q
	-
Deep strike Thy roots O heavenly Vine	S
Within our earthly sod	Q
Most human and yet most divine	S
The flower of man and God	Q
	-
O Love O Life Our faith and sight	Q
Thy presence maketh one	V
As through transfigured clouds of white	Q
We trace the noon day sun	V
	-
So to our mortal eyes subdued	Q
Flesh veiled but not concealed	Q
We know in Thee the fatherhood	Q
And heart of God revealed	Q
	-
We faintly hear we dimly see	B
In differing phrase we pray	G
But dim or clear we own in Thee	B
The Light the Truth the Way	G
	-
The homage that we render Thee	B
Is still our Father's own	U
No jealous claim or rivalry	B
Divides the Cross and Throne	U
	-
To do Thy will is more than praise	B
As words are less than deeds	B
And simple trust can find Thy ways	B
We miss with chart of creeds	B
	-
No pride of self Thy service hath	X
No place for me and mine	S
Our human strength is weakness death	Y
Our life apart from Thine	S
	-
Apart from Thee all gain is loss	B
All labor vainly done	V
The solemn shadow of Thy Cross	B
Is better than the sun	V
	-
Alone O Love ineffable	Z
Thy saving name is given	V
To turn aside from Thee is hell	A2
To walk with Thee is heaven	V
	-
How vain secure in all Thou art	Q
Our noisy championship	B2
The sighing of the contrite heart	Q
Is more than flattering lip	B2
	-
Not Thine the bigot's partial plea	B
Nor Thine the zealot's ban	C2
Thou well canst spare a love of Thee	B
Which ends in hate of man	C2
	-
Our Friend our Brother and our Lord	Q
What may Thy service be	B
Nor name nor form nor ritual word	Q
But simply following Thee	B
	-
We bring no ghastly holocaust	Q
We pile no graven stone	U
He serves thee best who loveth most	Q
His brothers and Thy own	U
	-
Thy litanies sweet offices	B
Of love and gratitude	Q
Thy sacramental liturgies	B
The joy of doing good	Q
	-
In vain shall waves of incense drift	Q
The vaulted nave around	Q
In vain the minster turret lift	Q
Its brazen weights of sound	Q
	-
The heart must ring Thy Christmas bells	B
Thy inward altars raise	B
Its faith and hope Thy canticles	B
And its obedience praise	B
