165. Love divine, all love excelling

1 Love divine, all love excelling,
Joy of heaven, to earth come down!
Fix in us thy humble dwelling,
All thy faithful mercies crown.

2 Jesus, thou art all compassion,
Pure, unbounded love thou art;
Visit us with thy salvation,
Enter every trembling heart.

3 Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit
Into every troubled breast!
Let us all thy grace inherit;
Let us find thy promised rest.
