THE GOODNESS OF GOD.

Grant me, Lord, my heart's desire, There, by faith, for ever dwell: This I always will require,

Thee, and only thee, to feel. Thy power I pant to prove, Rooted and fix'd in love; Strengthen'd by thy Spirit's might, Wise to fathom things divine, What the length, and breadth, and height, What the depth of love like thine. Ah! give me this to know, With all thy saints below: Swells my soul to compass thee; Gasps in thee to live and move; Fill'd with all the Deity,

All immersed and lost in love!

LOVE Divine! what hast thou done!

0 The' immortal God hath died for me!

The Father's co- eternal Son

Bore all my sins upon the tree: The' immortal God for me hath died! My Lord, my Love is crucified. 2 Behold him, all ye that pass by,

The bleeding Prince of Life and Peace! Come, see, ye worms, your Maker die, And say, was ever grief like his? Come, feel with me his blood applied: My Lord, my Love is crucified. 3 Is crucified for me and you,

To bring us rebels back to God: Believe, believe the record true,

Ye all are bought with Jesu's blood; Pardon for all flows from his side; My Lord, my Love is crucified. 4 Then let us sit beneath his cross, And gladly catch the healing stream:
