The love of Christ is really constraining because it makes me unable to reject Him even though His demand is so difficult to me.
I also want to ask the editors to recheck stanza 3 and 4 whether it is already correct or not because they're just the same with stanza 1 and 2 (but some phrases are deleted from them).
The saints in Columbus, Ohio taught me this song when we went there to serve the Children's Meeting during the perfecting training. It is such a wonderful song.
We sung this song at SSOT which finished yesterday. It was new to everyone, but clearly enjoyed because it kept being requested. Beautiful tune aside (can be two-part), the lyrics are great to declare, pray-read, and use in prayer. Praise the Lord for this song!
This song makes me feel that the lord is now constraining me and be one with me. Hallelujah, we are all one body in christ. As this song is full of meaning as i just want to sing it with all the brother and sister during this coming gospel meeting, to let all the gospel friends that the lord is now constraining them.
This hymn reminds me once again that we are prisoners of love - prisoners of the Lord Jesus' love for us... 'The Love of Christ is now constraining me, that I would love and love Him utterly, His mighty love has touched me deep within to consecrate my life and all to Him.' Just this 1st stanza and this hymn has really touched me... O Lord, I love you and consecrate my life to you...
