Thou Lord of all above

Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: BWHT1899 #387 (1899) Person Name: Benjamin Beddome Lyrics: 1 Thou Lord of all above, And all below the sky, Before Thy feet I prostrate fall, And for Thy mercy cry. 2 Forgive my follies past, The crimes which I have done; Oh, bid a contrite sinner live, Through thine incarnate Son. 3 Guilt, like a heavy load, Upon my conscience lies; To Thee I make my sorrows known, And lift my weeping eyes. 4 The burden which I feel, Thou only canst remove; Display, O Lord, Thy pardoning grace, And Thine unbounded love. 5 One gracious look of thine Will ease my troubled breast; Oh, let me know my sins forgiven, And I shall then be blest. Amen.

Jerusalem, the golden

Author: Bernard of Cluny; John M. Neale Hymnal: BWHT1899 #585 (1899) Person Name: Bernard of Cluny Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden, With milk and honey blest! Beneath thy contemplations Sink heart and voice oppressed: I know not, oh, I know not What joys await me there, What radiancy of glory, What light beyond compare. 2 They stand, those halls of Zion, All jubilant with song, And bright with many an angel, And all the martyr throng; The Prince is ever in them, The daylight is serene; The pastures of the blessèd Are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David; And there, from care released, The song of them that triumph, The shout of them that feast: And they who, with their Leader, have conquered in the fight For ever and forever Are clad in robes of white.

O God, the Rock of Ages

Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: BWHT1899 #78 (1899) Person Name: Edward H. Bickersteth Lyrics: 1 O God, the Rock of Ages, Who evermore hast been, What time the tempest rages, Our dwelling-place serene: Before Thy first creations, O Lord, the same as now, To endless generations, The Everlasting Thou! 2 Our years are like the shadows On sunny hills that lie, Or grasses in the meadows That blossom but to die: A sleep, a dream, a story, By strangers quickly told, An unremaining glory Of things that soon are old. 3 O Thou, who canst not slumber, Whose light grows never pale, Teach us aright to number Our years before they fail! On us Thy mercy lighten, On us Thy goodness rest, And let Thy Spirit brighten The hearts Thyself hast blessed! Amen.

I was a wandering sheep

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: BWHT1899 #128 (1899) Person Name: Horatius Bonar Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold, I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controlled: I was a wayward child, I did not love my home, I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; He followed me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild: He found me nigh to death, Famished, and faint, and lone; He bound me with the bands of love, He saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is, 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that washed me in His blood, 'Twas He that made me whole; 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep, 'Twas He that brought me to the fold, 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 No more a wandering sheep, I love to be controlled, I love my tender Shepherd's voice, I love, I love the fold: No more a wayward child, I seek no more to roam, I love my Heavenly Father's voice-- I love, I love His home.

All that I was, my sin, my guilt

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: BWHT1899 #131 (1899) Person Name: Horatius Bonar Lyrics: 1 All that I was, my sin, my guilt, My death, was all my own; All that I am I owe to Thee, My gracious God, alone. 2 The evil of my former state Was mine, and only mine; The good in which I now rejoice Is Thine, and only Thine. 3 The darkness of my former state, The bondage--all was mine; The light of life in which I walk, The liberty--is Thine. 4 Thy grace first made me feel my sin, It taught me to believe; Then, in believing, peace I found, And now I live, I live! 5 All that I am e'en here on earth, All that I hope to be When Jesus comes and glory dawns-- I owe it, Lord, to Thee.
