The Depths of His Love

THERE are depths to the love of Jesus We have never yet attained. There are heights of joy in His service Weak efforts have never gained.
How deeply have I been plunged Into the depths of the flood? How much of sin has been washed from me By the touch of the cleansing blood?
How far have I gone on the journey From the plains of sin and strife To the mountains of light and glory That are crowned with eternal life?
How deeply have you, my brother, Been sunk in the love of God? How much of your sin has been washed away In the tide of the cleansing flood?
How is it with you, my brother, My sister, whom I love? How far have you gone on the highway That leads to the realms above?
O, let us step together Into the cleansing stream, And together rise with Jesus To service and love supreme.
Then let us go upward together On the path to higher ground, Till, in the light of His presence, The “fulness of joy” is found.
