“Be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man… that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God. Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think… be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen” (Ephesians 3:16-21).
The
Holy Spirit will extend
The
inner strength which has sufficed
To
follow and to comprehend
Our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Thus
rooted in the ground of love,
We
comprehend each deep dimension
Of
breadth, and length, and height above
In
Christ who gives us comprehension.
What
wondrous love now saves the soul!
It
far surpasses finite thought!
Christ
gave Himself to pay in full
The
price by which our souls were bought.
Now
unto Jesus Christ our Lord
Who
calls our thirsty souls to drink,
We
praise our God in one accord
For
love exceeding all we think!
O
Lord, Your love is marvelous,
And
thereby we are now constrained
To
love You, for You first loved us,
And
by Your death, our life obtained!
This
comprehension of Your grace,
O
Christ, now draws us to adore!
Yet
when we see You face to face,
Our
hearts shall worship evermore!
