733. O Everlasting Love

1 O everlasting Love,
wellspring of grace and peace,
pour down your fullness from above,
bid doubt and trouble cease.

2 O everlasting Fount
from which the waters burst,
the streams of the eternal mount
that quench time’s sorest thirst.

3 O everlasting Health
from which all healing springs,
my bliss, my treasure, and my wealth,
to you my spirit clings.

4 O everlasting Rest,
lift off life’s load of care!
Relieve, revive this burdened breast,
and ev’ry sorrow bear.

5 O everlasting Strength,
uphold me in the way;
bring me, in spite of foes, at length
to joy, and light, and day!
