Lyrics

O love of God most full,
O love of God most free,
Come, warm my heart, come fill my soul,
Come, lead me un­to Thee!

Warm as the glow­ing sun,
So shines Thy love on me;
It wraps me ’round with kind­ly care,
It draws me un­to Thee!

The wild­est sea is calm,
The tem­pest brings no fear,
The dark­est night is full of light
Because Thy love is near.

I tri­umph over sin,
I put temp­ta­tion down;
The love of God doth give me strength
To win the vic­tor’s crown.

O love of God most full,
O love of God most free,
Thou warm’st my heart,
Thou fill’st my soul,
With might Thou strength’nest me.
