Take Me, O My Father, Take Me

Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: TH1990 #491 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Take me, O my Father, take me; take me, save me, through thy Son; that which thou wouldst have me, make me, let thy will in me be done. Long from thee my footsteps straying, thorny proved the way I trod; weary come I now, and praying, take me to thy love, my God. 2 Fruitless years with grief recalling, humbly I confess my sin; at thy feet, O Father, falling, to thy household take me in. Freely now to thee I proffer this relenting heart of mine; freely life and soul I offer, gift unworthy love like thine. 3 Once the world's Redeemer, dying, bore our sins upon the tree; on that sacrifice relying, now I look in hope to thee: Father, take me; all forgiving, fold me to thy loving breast; in thy love for ever living I must be forever blest.

O Jesus, Thou Art Standing

Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: TH1990 #492 (1990) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, thou art standing outside the fast-closed door, in lowly patience waiting to pass the threshold o'er: shame on us, Christian brothers, his name and sign who bear, O shame, thrice shame upon us, to keep him standing there! 2 O Jesus, thou art knocking; and lo, that hand is scarred, and thorns thy brow encircle, and tears thy face have marred: O love that passeth knowledge, so patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, so fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, thou art pleading in accents meek and low, "I died for you, my children, and will ye treat me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow we open now the door; dear Savior, enter, enter, and leave us nevermore.

We Have Not Known Thee As We Ought

Author: Thomas Benson Pollock Hymnal: TH1990 #493 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 We have not known thee as we ought, nor learned thy wisdom, grace and pow'r; the things of earth have filled our thought, and trifles of the passing hour. Lord, give us light thy truth to see, and make us wise in knowing thee. 2 We have not feared thee as we ought, nor bowed beneath thine awful eye, nor guarded deed, and word, and thought, remembering that God was nigh. Lord, give us faith to know thee near, and grant the grace of holy fear. 3 We have not loved thee as we ought, nor cared that we are loved by thee; thy presence we have coldly sought, and feebly longed thy face to see. Lord, give a pure and loving heart to feel and own the love thou art. 4 We have not served thee as we ought; alas! the duties left undone, the work with little fervor wrought, the battles lost, or scarcely won! Lord, give the zeal, and give the might, for thee to toil, for thee to fight. 5 When shall we know thee as we ought, and fear, and love, and serve aright! When shall we, out of trial brought, be perfect in the land of light! Lord, may we day by day prepare to see thy face, and serve thee there.
