Love Divine - Words by Charles Wesley published in Hymns for Those that Seek and Those That Have Redemption in the Blood of Jesus Christ, 1747. The melody we associate with this hymn today is by John Stainer, composed in 1889. This hymn is about celebration and praise, making it suitable as the first hymn sung at the beginning of the church service. It is also suitable as the second hymn sung after the marriage ceremony in praise and celebration of the union.
Love Divine, all loves excelling, Joy of heaven, to earth come down, Fix in us thy humble dwelling, All thy faithful mercies crown. Jesus, thou art all compassion, Pure unbounded love thou art; Visit us with thy salvation, Enter every trembling heart.
