O Perfect Love
O perfect Love, all human thought transcending,
Lovely we kneel in prayer before Thy throne,
That theirs may be the love which knew no ending
-
Whom thou forever more doest join in one
O perfect life be thou their full assurance
Of tender charity and steadfast faith
Of patient hope and quiet, brave endurance
With childlike trust that fears nor pain nor death
-
Grant them the joy which brightens earthly sorrow
Grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife
And to life's day the glorious unknown morrow
That dawns upon eternal love and life. Amen
