The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious long-suffering and abundant in goodness and truth. Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity, and transgression and sin, Exodus 34:6-7. God is love. Who will separate us from the love of God? In all things we are more than conquerors, 1 John 4:16. Romans 8:35-37.
O my dear Saviour, pour thy love out into my heart by thy Holy Spirit, that by a true sense and enjoyment of it, I may be able to love thee reciprocally with my whole heart, and do all things singly from a principle of love and gratitude towards thee. I have long prayed for it, O Lord! Thou canst not deny it me; I must have this petition granted.
Christ died, and lives, and sits above,
For ever interceding there:
Who shall divide us from his love,
Or what should tempt us to despair?
Shall persecution, or distress,
Famine, or sword, or nakedness?
He that has loved us, bears us through,
And makes us more than conquerors too.
Not all that men on earth can do,
Nor powers on high, nor powers below.
Shall cause his mercy to remove.
Or wean our hearts from God, our love.
