PRAYER AND ASPIRATION
493
2   Stronger His love than death or hell; Its riches are unsearchable;
The first-born sons of light Desire in vain its depths to see; They cannot reach the mystery,
The length and breadth and height.
3   God only knows the love of God: Oh, that it now were shed abroad
In this poor stony heart! For love I sigh, for love I pine; This only portion, Lord, be mine,
Be mine this better part.
4   Oh, that I could for ever sit With Mary at the Master's feet!
Be this my happy choice; My only care, delight, and bliss, My joy, my heaven on earth be this, I
To hear the Bridegroom's voice, i
5   Thy only love do I require, Nothing on earth beneath desire,
Nothing in heaven above; Let earth and heaven and all things go J Give me Thy only love to know,
Give me Thy only love.
Rev. Charles Wesley, 1749
