Sabbath Psalm (Adapted from Fredrick Blom’s hymn ‘He the Pearly Gates Will Open’)
Love divine, so great and wondrous,
Deep and mighty, pure, sublime!
Coming from the heart of Jesus—
Faithful through the tests of time.
Like a deer when hunted, frightened,
As a wounded fawn was I;
Broken-hearted, yet He healed me—
He will heed the sinner’s cry.
Love divine, beyond all measure,
All my sins He there forgave!
I will sing His praise forever—
For His blood, His power to save.
In life’s eventide, at twilight,
At His door I’ll knock and wait;
Clinging to the cross of Jesus
I will enter heaven’s gate!
