Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O perfect love all, human thought transcending
lowly we kneel in prayer before thy throne,
that theirs may be the love which knows no ending,
Whom thou forever more dost join in one.
VERSE 2
O perfect life be, thou their full assurance
of tender charity and steadfast faith,
of patient hope and quiet, brave endurance,
with childlike trust that fears no pain, nor death.
VERSE 3
Grant them the joy which brightens earthly sorrow
grant them the peace which claims all earthly strife,
and to life's day the glorious unknown morrow
that dawns upon eternal love and life.
