The Immensity of His Grace
Charles Wesley • English
Primary Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:5
Verse 1
What shall I do my God to love, my loving God to praise? The length, and breadth, and height to prove, and depth of sovereign grace?
Verse 2
Thy sovereign grace to all extends, immense and unconfined; from age to age it never ends, it reaches all mankind.
Verse 3
Throughout the world its breadth is known, wide as infinity; so wide it never passed by one, or it had passed by me.
Verse 4
My trespass was grown up to heaven; but, far above the skies, in Christ abundantly forgiven, I see thy mercies rise.
Verse 5
The depth of all-redeeming love, what angel tongue can tell? O may I to the utmost prove the gift unspeakable!
Verse 6
Come quickly, gracious Lord, and take possession of your own; my longing heart vouchsafe to make thy everlasting throne.
