LOVE TO JESUS
Undeserving, ill-deserving, hell-deserving
Your hearts have gone a-whoring from Him!
Love flowing from a sight of the cross!
Rise up my love, my beautiful one, and come away!
We are not flogged into loving Him
Some creature steals away your heart
The more vile we are in our own eyes
A powerful, operative, abiding principle
Keep a fixed eye upon a bleeding Christ
When Brutus went to stab Julius Caesar
How may we know whether we love God?
If You gave me a mountain of gold
The old monks intently gazed upon the crucifix
Pleasure, delight, contentment & satisfaction in God
Above the decaying objects around him?
Ah, my much abused, much neglected heart!
Can we forget such mighty grace?
Stricken and smitten and afflicted
Christ must be all!Were it no bigger than a child's doll
Why do our hearts grow so cold?
That secret loveliness
Spiritual change?Come to Christ as Mary Magdalene did!
Have we not leaned upon a thousand things?
Love of Jesus
Is Jesus increasingly precious to you?If you want to see what sin really is
Broke her heart all in pieces
Let your daily historyYou take the goods
The happy secret of retaining our merciesA living, loving, personal Savior
How emptying, humbling, and abasing!A sea of sin--and not a drop of sorrow!
Better than life!
Poverty, wretchedness, and woe!
Hanging upon a rich, almighty Savior!Is there no silent lesson here for us?
A hard, proud, hollow religion
Inexpressible sweetness!
Jesus deserves our best!The monarch of our affections!
Like a little child in the arms of eternal love
May our hearts glow with seraphic love
High Proficiency in Divine Things?
