I am the Lord's! O joy beyond expression

We sung this hymn at my daughter's wedding.

The tune for this beautiful hymn was written for the beautiful wedding hymn, "O Perfect Love", by Dorothy F. Gurney. This tune was written specifically for the wedding of Queen Victoria's granddaughter, Princess Louise of Wales.

----------------------

Below are the words of that wedding hymn:

1. O perfect Love, all human thought transcending,
Lowly we kneel in prayer before Thy throne,
That theirs may be the love which knows no ending,
Whom Thou forevermore dost join in one.
----------------------------

2. 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 not pain nor death.
--------------------------

3. 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.
---------------------------

4. Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,
Through Jesus Christ, Thy coeternal Word,
Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living
Now and to endless ages art adored.

What a beautiful expression of assurance to the child of God!

I've loved Him since my teenage years and He is more precious now than ever.

A verse from this hymn was quoted on our calendar and I just had to look it up.

Thank you for this lovely rendering.

Lord, thank You that I am Yours. I truly belong to You. Please teach me absolute surrender to You. I love You Lord.

Dear Lord, may my entire being be Yours forevermore. I give my body and soul and spirit to You right now, to love and honor and obey You for the rest of my days. Thank You for accepting me forever. I ask You to teach me all it means to love You as much as You have loved me. Take me completely, I am Yours.

I am the Lord's! Yet teach me all it meanth! Lord Jesus teach us how to please You. Constitue Your being with ours so that our living can express sontaneously that we are Yours.

Oh, how blest the thought...thank You Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. To You alone be all glory, power, and dominion now and forever more. Amen

Yes we are in love with our dear Master. Oh who's like our Jesus. He's all we desire. He is the living God to us. He's the magnificent One. No one can match Him. He's peerless! O Jesus, Jesus dearest Lord, we love to say Thy dear name.

O joy beyond expression! Lord, make us wholly Your own in every way. No one deserves our love as much as You do. Be so romantic and win our hearts completely. Don't stop until You have all of us. We know You'll answer this prayer, dear Lord. Thank You so much, Lord Jesus. Love, Randall

I'm the Lord's! Yes, body, soul and spirit. I'm the Lord's! Yes, I'm His and only His!

Hallelujah! we are the Lord's and only His!
