Oh, for a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,364 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51:10-12 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, a calm and heavenly frame, a light to shine upon the road that leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew when first I sought the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view of Jesus and his Word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.

Psalm 51 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 49 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51:3-13 First Line: Lord, I would spread my sore distress Lyrics: Lord, I would spread my sore distress And guilt before thine eyes; Against thy laws, against thy grace, How high my crimes arise! Shouldst thou condemn my soul to hell, And crush my flesh to dust, Heav'n would approve thy vengeance well, And earth must own it just. I from the stock of Adam came, Unholy and unclean; All my original is shame, And all my nature sin. Born in a world of guilt, I drew Contagion with my breath; And as my days advanced, I grew A juster prey for death. Cleanse me, O Lord, and cheer my soul With thy forgiving love; O make my broken spirit whole, And bid my pains remove. Let not thy Spirit quite depart, Nor drive me from thy face; Create anew my vicious heart, And fill it with thy grace. Then will I make thy mercy known Before the sons of men; Backsliders shall address thy throne, And turn to God again.

Spirit of God, Who Dwells within My Heart

Author: George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 340 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51:10-12 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, who dwells within my heart, wean it from sin, through all its pulses move. Stoop to my weakness, mighty as you are, and make me love you as I ought to love. 2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, no sudden rending of the veil of clay, no angel visitant, no opening skies; but take the dimness of my soul away. 3 Did you not bid us love you, God and King, love you with all our heart and strength and mind? I see the cross– there teach my heart to cling. O let me seek you and O let me find! 4 Teach me to feel that you are always nigh; teach me the struggles of the soul to bear, to check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; teach me the patience of unceasing prayer. 5 Teach me to love you as your angels love, one holy passion filling all my frame: the fullness of the heaven-descended Dove; my heart an altar, and your love the flame.

Have Mercy, Lord, on me

Appears in 121 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 51 Lyrics: 1 Have Mercy, Lord, on me, as Thou wert ever kind; Let me, oppress'd with Loads of guilt, thy wonted Mercy find. 2,3 Wash off my foul Offence, and cleanse me from my Sin; For I confess my Crime, and see how great my Guilt has been. 4 Against Thee, Lord, alone, and only in thy Sight, Have I transgress'd; and tho' condemn'd must own thy Judgment right. 5 In Guilt each Part was form'd of all this sinful Frame; In Guilt I was conceiv'd, and born the Heir of Sin and Shame. 6 Yet Thou, whose searching Eye does inward Truth require, In secret didst with Wisdom's Laws my tender Soul inspire. 7 With Hyssop purge me, Lord; and so I clean shall be: I shall with Snow in whiteness vie, when purify'd by Thee. 8 Make me to hear with Joy thy kind forgiving Voice; That so the Bones which Thou hast broke, may with fresh Strength rejoice. 9,10 Blot out my crying Sins, nor me in Anger view; Create in me a Heart that's clean, an upright Mind renew. Part II 11 Withdraw not Thou thy Help, nor cast me from thy Sight; Nor let thy Holy Spirit take its everlasting flight. 12 The Joy thy Favour gives, let me again obtain And thy free Spirit's firm Support My fainting Soul sustain. 13 So I thy righteous Ways to Sinners will impart; Whilst my Advice shall wicked Men to thy just Laws convert. 14 My Guilt of Blood remove, my Saviour, and my God; And my glad Tongue shall loudly tell thy righteous Acts abroad. 15 Do Thou unlock my Lips, with Sorrow clos'd, and Shame; So shall my Mouth thy wond'rous Praise to all the World proclaim. 16 Could Sacrifice atone, whole Flocks and Herds should die; But on such Off'rings Thou disdain'st to cast a gracious eye. 17 A broken Spirit is by God most highly priz'd; By Him a broken contrite Heart shall never be despis'd. 18 Let Sion, Favour find, of thy Good-will assur'd; And thy own city flourish long, by lofty Walls secur'd. 19 The Just shall then attend, and pleasing Tribute pay; And Sacrifice of choicest Kind upon thy Altar lay.
