JESUS CHRIST – PERFECT LOVE
Holy One that knows no fault
Screen my thoughts.; Make me clean
Know the motives of my heart
When I see my selfish choice
When I glimpse your holiness
Then I realise again
Perfect Love has come to cleanse
Jesus Christ – Lord for all
Plant in me the kingdom seed
Search me Lord, when I’m found
Looking only to my needs
When I see the way you lived
How you dignified the poor
Then I realise again
How I need to know you more
Jesus Christ – Lamb of God
Love resolved to take our place
Who can write or describe
All of your self-giving grace
When I look at the brutal cross
Innocence and beauty slain
That’s when I realise once more
You fully understand our pain
Jesus Christ – King of heaven
Qualified to wear the crown
In your face radiant grace
Draws us closer to your throne
When we see your generous heart
When we touch the world you love
That’s when we realise again
Perfect Love is Perfect Hope
