Irresistible Grace

Irresistible Grace!

Apprehended by the love of Christ, what shall I do?
To the right or left my heart cannot go,
But only straight on through
To the rapturous delights of Divine Love!

Shall my heart now grumble at its apprehension?
How could that ever be so;
For in that wonderful, Divine Condescension
My Soul apprehends its perfect joy!

“God’s yoke is burdensome” my heart shall never say.
But ever will it praise the One
Who bore the burden that my soul may,
By Grace, see and be satisfied!
