Holy Spirit, truth divine

Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819 - 92 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #130 (1958) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, truth divine, Dawn upon this soul of mine; Word of God, and inward light, Wake my spirit, clear my sight. 2 Holy Spirit, love divine, Glow within this heart of mine; Kindle every high desire; Perish self in thy pure fire. A-men. 3 Holy Spirit, power divine, Fill and nerve this will of mine; By thee may I strongly live, Bravely bear, and nobly strive. 4 Holy Spirit, peace divine, Still this restless heart of mine; Speak to calm this tossing sea, Stayed in thy tranquillity. 5 Holy Spirit, right divine, King within my conscience reign; Be my law, and I shall be Firmly bound, for ever free.

I heard the voice of Jesus say

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808 - 89 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #499b (1958) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'Come unto me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon my breast.' I came to Jesus as I was, Weary, and worn, and sad; I found in him a resting place, And he has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'Behold, I freely give The living water, thirsty one, Stoop down, and drink, and live.' I came to Jesus and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, And now I live in him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'I am this dark world's light; Look unto me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright.' I looked to Jesus, and I found In him my star, my sun; And in that light of life I'll walk Till traveling days are done.

There is a green hill far away

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823 - 95 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #77a (1958) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall, Where the dear Lord was crucified, Who died to save us all. 2 We may not know, we cannot tell What pains he had to bear, But we believe it was for us He hung and suffered there. 3 He died that we might be forgiven, He died to make us good; That we might go at last to heaven, Saved by his precious Blood. 4 There was no other good enough To pay the price of sin, He only could unlock the gate Of heaven, and let us in. 5 O dearly, dearly has he loved, And we must love him too, And trust in his redeeming Blood, And try his works to do.
