Savior! Thy dying love

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #353 (1918) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Savior! Thy dying love Thou gavest me, Nor should I aught withhold, Dear Lord, from Thee; In love my soul would bow, My heart fulfill its vow, Some off'ring bring Thee now, Something for Thee. 2 O’er the blest mercy-seat, Pleading for me, My feeble faith looks up, Jesus, to Thee: Help me the cross to bear, Thy wondrous love declare, Some song to raise, or pray'r, Something for Thee. 3 Give me a faithful heart-- Likeness to Thee-- That each departing day Henceforth may see Some work of love begun, Some deed of kindness done, Some wand'rer sought and won, Something for Thee. 4 All that I am and have-- Thy gifts so free-- In joy, in grief, through life, O Lord, for Thee! And when Thy face I see, My ransomed soul shall be, Through all eternity, Something for Thee. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English

Shepherd of tender youth

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #448 (1918) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of tender youth, Guiding in love and truth Through devious ways; Christ, our triumphant King, We come Thy name to sing, And here our children bring To join Thy praise. 2 Thou art our holy Lord, O all-subduing Word, Healer of strife: Thou didst Thyself abase, That from sin's deep disgrace Thou mightest save our race, And give us life. 3 Thou art the great High Priest; Thou hast prepared the feast Of holy love: And in our mortal pain None calls on Thee in vain; Help Thou dost not disdain, Help from above. 4 Ever be near our side, Our shepherd and our Guide, Our Staff and Song; Jesus, Thou Christ of God, By Thine enduring Word, Lead us where Thou hast trod, Make our faith strong. 5 So now, and till we die, Sound we Thy praises high, And joyful sing; Let all the holy throng Who to Thy Church belong, Unite and swell the song To Christ our King!

I'm but a stranger here

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #563 (1918) Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 I'm but a stranger here, Heav'n is my home; Earth is a desert drear, Heav'n is my home; Danger and sorrow stand Round me on every hand; Heav'n is my fatherland, Heav'n is my home. 2 What though the tempest rage, Heav'n is my home; Short is my pilgrimage, Heav'n is my home; And time's wild wintry blast Soon shall be over-past; I shall reach home at last, Heav'n is my home. 3 There at my Savior's side, Heav'n is my home; I shall be glorified, Heav'n is my home; There are the good and blest, Those I love most and best; And there I, too, shall rest, Heav'n is my home. 4 Therefore I murmur not, Heav'n is my home; Whate'er my earthly lot, Heav'n is my home, And I shall surely stand There at my Lord's right hand; Heav'n is my fatherland, Heav'n is my home.

In the hour of trial

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #409 (1918) Meter: 6.5.8.1 Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me; Lest by base denial I depart from Thee; When Thou see'st me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With forbidden pleasures Would this vain world charm; Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm; Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe; Or should pain attend me On my path below; Grant that I may never Fail Thy hand to see; Grant that I may ever Cast my care on Thee. 4 When my last hour cometh, Fraught with strife and pain, When my dust returneth To the dust again; On Thy truth relying, Through that mortal strife, Jesus, take me, dying, To eternal life.
