O Love, how deep, how broad, how high!
Author: Benjamin Webb (1819-1885) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 139 hymnals Scripture: John 20 Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high!
Surpassing thought and fantasy
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake.
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
his holy fast, and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp he knew;
for us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us he prayed, for us he taught,
for us the lost with love he sought,
by words, and signs, and actions, he
brought health and hope to set us free.
4 For us to wicked men betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us at length gave up his breath.
5 For us he rose from death again,
for us he went on high to reign,
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
6 To him whose boundless love has won
salvation for us through his Son,
to God the Father, glory be
both now and through eternity. Topics: Christian Year Lent; Creed Used With Tune: EISENACH (LEIPZIG) Text Sources: Latin, 15th century

And after none but thee,
And then, I would, O that I might!

Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: John 20:11-18 Lyrics: 1 As man and woman we were made,
that love be found and life begun;
the likeness of the living God,
unique, yet called to live as one.
Through joy or sadness, calm or strife,
come praise the love that gives us life.
2 Now Jesus lived and gave his love
to make our life and loving new;
so celebrate with him today,
and drink the joy he offers you
that makes the simple moment shine
and changes water into wine.
3 And Jesus died to live again,
so praise the love that, come what may,
can bring the dawn and clear the skies,
and waits to wipe all tears away,
and let us hope for what shall be,
believing where we cannot see.
4 Then spread the table, clear the hall,
and celebrate till day is done;
let peace go deep between us all,
and joy be shared by everyone:
laugh and make merry with your friends,
and praise the love that never ends! Topics: The Church Celebrates Family, Friendship, and Marriage Used With Tune: SUSSEX CAROL
