"My springs in thee"
Author: James Edmeston Appears in 76 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:15 First Line: Fountain of grace, rich, full, and free Lyrics: 1 Fountain of grace, rich, full, and free,
What need I, that is not in thee?
Full pardon, strength to meet the day,
And peace which none can take away.
2 Doth sickness fill my heart with fear,
'Tis sweet to know that thou art near;
Am I with dread of justice tried,
'Tis sweet to know that Christ hath died.
3 In life, thy promises of aid
Forbid my heart to be afraid;
In death, peace gently vails the eyes,--
Christ rose, and I shall surely rise. Topics: Christ Fountain; Christ Resurrection of; Christians Privileges; Comfort; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table Used With Tune: PARK STREET
"My springs in thee"
We Walk by Faith, and Not by Sight
Author: Henry Alford (1810-1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 72 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17 Lyrics: 1 We walk by faith and not by sight:
no gracious words we hear
from him who spoke as none e’er spoke,
but we believe him near.
2 We may not touch his hands and side,
nor follow where he trod;
but in his promise we rejoice,
and cry, “My Lord and God!”
3 Help then, O Lord, our unbelief,
and may our faith abound,
to call on you when you are near,
and seek where you are found:
4 that, when our life of faith is done,
in realms of clearer light
we may behold you as you are
with full and endless sight.

Resurrection sure
Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:15 First Line: When downward to the darksome tomb Lyrics: 1 When downward to the darksome tomb
I thoughtful turn my eyes,
Frail nature trembles at the gloom
And anxious fears arise.
2 Why shrinks my soul?--in death's embrace
Once Jesus captive slept:
And angels, hovering o'er the place,
His lowly pillow kept.
3 Thus shall they guard my sleeping dust,
And, as the Saviour rose,
The grave again shall yield her trust,
And end my deep repose.
4 My Lord, before to glory gone,
Shall bid me come away;
And calm and bright shall break the dawn
Of heaven's eternal day.
5 Then let my faith each fear dispel,
And gild with light the grave;
To him my loftiest praises swell,
Who died, from death to save. Topics: Asleep in Jesus; Death Used With Tune: ST. AGES

O 'tis a lovely thing to see
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 38 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17 Lyrics:
O 'tis a lovely thing to see
A man of prudent heart,
Whose thoughts, and lips, and life agree
To act a useful part.
When envy, strife, and wars begin
In little angry souls,
Mark how the sons of peace come in,
And quench the kindling coals.
Their minds are humble, mild, and meek,
Nor let their fury rise;
Nor passion moves their lips to speak,
Nor pride exalts their eyes.
Their frame is prudence mixed with love,
Good works fulfil their day;
They join the serpent with the dove,
But cast the sting away.
Such was the Savior of mankind,
Such pleasures he pursued;
His flesh and blood were all refined,
His soul divinely good.
Lord, can these plants of virtue grow
In such a heart as mine?
Thy grace my nature can renew,
And make my soul like thine.

The Transforming Vision of God
Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:15 First Line: My God, the visits of thy face Lyrics:
I. My God, the visits of thy face
Afford superior joy,
To all the flatt'ring world can give,
Or mortal hopes employ.
II. But clouds and darkness intervene,
My brightest joys decline,
And earth's fay trifles oft ensnare
This wand'ring heart of mine.
III. Lord, guide this wand'ring heart to thee;
Unsatisfied I stray:
Break thro' the shades of sense and sin,
With thine enliv'ning ray.
IV. O let thy beams resplendent shine,
And ev'ry cloud remove;
Transform my pow'rs, and fit my soul
For happier scenes above.
V. There Jesus reigns! may I be cloth'd
With his divine array;
And when I close these eyes in death,
Awake to endless day:
VI. To endless day! To perfect life!
To bliss without alloy!
Where not the least faint cloud shall rise,
To intercept the joy:
VII. To view, unveil'd, thy radiant face,
Thou everlasting fair!
And chang'd to spotless purity,
Thy glorious likeness wear:
VIII. To feast, with ever new delight,
On uncreated good;
And drink full satisfying draughts
Of pleasure's sacred flood.
IX. O bliss too big for mortal thought!
It awes, and yet inspires:
Fain would my soul, unfetter'd, rise
In more intense desires.
X. Lord, raise my faith, my hope, my heart,
To those transporting joys;
Then shall I scorn each little snare,
Which this vain world employs:
XI. Then, tho' I sink in death's cold sleep,
I shall awake to bliss,
And in the likeness of my God,
Find endless happiness.

O food to pilgrims given
Lift up your eyes to th' heavenly seats
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17 Lyrics:
Lift up your eyes to th' heav'nly seats
Where your Redeemer stays;
Kind Intercessor, there he sits,
And loves, and pleads, and prays.
'Twas well, my soul, he died for thee,
And shed his vital blood;
Appeased stern justice on the tree,
And then arose to God.
Petitions now, and praise may rise,
And saints their off'rings bring;
The Priest, with his own sacrifice,
Presents them to the King.
[Let papists trust what names they please,
Their saints and angels boast;
We've no such advocates as these,
Nor pray to th' heav'nly host.]
Jesus alone shall bear my cries
Up to his Father's throne;
He, dearest Lord! perfumes my sighs,
And sweetens every groan.
[Ten thousand praises to the King,
"Hosannah in the highest!"
Ten thousand thanks our spirits bring
To God and to his Christ.]
