Christ's love in the heart

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]

Strengthen with power infinite;
grace may your Spirit pour;
strengthen us in our inmost souls,
tasting your riches more.
       Father, our gracious God, I bow
       humbly, in faith, I ask you now,
       grace and reviving may we know.

Christ then will dwell within our hearts –
not just a short-term guest.
Welcomed by faith, his word obeyed,
– richly we will be blessed.

Rooted, established in his love;
may he give all his own
power to perceive how vast Christ’s love –
depth of the love he’s shown.

Love that surpasses knowledge – can’t
fully be understood
by anyone; I pray he will
fill you with all things good.

Tune: 86 86 888 Supremacy by N Tomblin [tune of ‘Thou art the Everlasting Word”]

'I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you being rooted and established in love, may have power together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know that love that surpasses knowledge … ' Ephesians 3:16-19
