Sunday's Hymn: Reader's Choice
Sunday, August 5, 2007 at 12:30PM This hymn is a favorite of Ellen B.
O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me, is the current of Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward to Thy glorious rest above!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, spread His praise from shore to shore!
How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore!
How He watches o’er His loved ones, died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth, watcheth o’er them from the throne!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best!
’Tis an ocean full of blessing, ’tis a haven giving rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, ’tis a heaven of heavens to me;
And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!
—-Samuel Francis (Listen.)

thanks for posting it.
Rebecca, I pray that your recent weight loss, as evidenced by your picture, was by your choice and not a health problem. I trust that is so, since that deck took a lot of "healthy" work to complete!
Dryden's Te Deum
No weight loss, William. Just must be the angle of the photo.
