Back to Poetry Introduction

Captured Hearts!
-- Cornhill, Northamptonshire, 1987


Great, boundless God! Unfathomed! Free!

We would be wholly lost in Thee
Gaze on Your awesome majesty
Great God! Unfathomed! Free!

We shall arise in holy praise
Worship the Lord through all our days
Explore His heights, His depths, His ways
Fair God of glorious praise!

Our souls consumed with fierce desire
Cleansed by Your love's transforming fire
Burn then in us, Lord take us higher
You God of holy fire!

Hearts melt as we are lost in Him
Dissolved in love, joy wells within,
Tears sweetly flow, grace, grace must win
Warm melting heart of God!

God loves His Zion, feels her pain
Great heart of love must wound to gain,
He cuts, He heals, His love the same
Pure God of loving pain!

Come, let us praise, pour out our lives
Shed forth His fragrance, Zion arise!
Turn to our God with captured eyes
Come Zion let us arise!

Kingdom of Jesus, loveliest pearl
Zion, the joy of all the earth,
Here now we worship, hearts unfurl
Let God be all in all!
