O Thou, from whom all goodness flows

Author: Thomas Haweis Hymnal: CBWM1872 #490 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Thou, from whom all goodness flows, I lift my heart to Thee; In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes, Dear Lord, remember me! 2 When on my aching, burdened heart My sins lie heavily, My pardon speak, new peace impart: In love, remember me! 3 Temptations sore obstruct my way, And ills I cannot flee; O give me strength, Lord, as my day; For good, remember me! 4 Distrest with pain, disease, and grief, This feeble body see, Grant patience, rest, and kind relief; Hear, and remember me! 5 When in the solemn hour of death I wait Thy just decree: Be this the prayer of my last breath, Good Lord, remember me! 6 And when before Thy throne I stand And lift my soul to Thee: Then, with the saints at Thy right hand, Good Lord, remember me!

And let this feeble body fail

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CBWM1872 #491 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And let this feeble body fail, And let it droop or die; My soul shall quit the mournful vale And soar to worlds on high: Shall join the disembodied saints, And find its long-sought Rest, That only bliss for which it pants, In the Redeemer's breast. 2 In hope of that immortal crown, I now the Cross sustain, And gladly wander up and down, And smile at toil and pain: I suffer on my three-score years Till my Deliverer come, And wipe away His servant's tears, And take His exile home. 3 O what hath Jesus bought for me! Before my ravished eyes Rivers of life divine I see, And trees of paradise! I see a world of spirits bright, Who reap the pleasures there; They all are clothed in robes of white, And conquering palms they bear. 4 O what are all my sufferings here, If, Lord, Thou count me meet, With that enraptured host to appear, And worship at Thy feet! Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, Take life or friends away; But let me find them all again In that eternal day.

Lord, it belongs not to my care

Author: Richard Baxter Hymnal: CBWM1872 #492 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. If life be long, I will be glad That I may long obey; If short, yet why should I be sad To soar to endless day? 2 Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before: He that into God's kingdom comes Must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be? 3 Then I shall end my sad complaints, And weary sinful days, And join with the triumphant saints, That sing Jehovah's praise. My knowledge of that Life is small, The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him.

Before the Lord we bow

Author: Francis Scott Key Hymnal: CBWM1872 #494 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Before the Lord we bow, The God who reigns above, And rules the world below Boundless in power and love; Our thanks we bring In joy and praise, Our hearts we raise To heaven's high King. 2 The nation Thou hast blest, May well Thy love declare, From foes and fears at rest, Protected by Thy care. For this fair land, For this bright day, Our thanks we pay,-- Gifts of Thy hand. 3 May every mountain height, Each vale and forest green, Shine in Thy Word's pure light, And its rich fruits be seen! May every tongue Be tuned to praise, And join to raise A grateful song. 4 Earth! hear thy Maker's voice, The great Redeemer own; Believe, obey, rejoice, And worship Him alone. Cast down thy pride, Thy sin deplore, And bow before The Crucified. 5 And when in power He comes, O may our native land, From all its rending tombs, Send forth a glorious band, A countless throng, Ever to sing To heaven's high King Salvation's song.

Dread Jehovah, God of nations

Author: Thomas Cotterill Hymnal: CBWM1872 #495 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Dread Jehovah, God of nations, From Thy temple in the skies, Hear Thy people's supplications, Now for their deliverance rise! 2 Lo, with deep contrition turning, Humbly at Thy feet we bend; Hear us, fasting, praying, mourning, Hear us, spare us, and defend. 3 Though our sins, our hearts confounding, Long and loud for vengeance call, Thou hast mercy more abounding, Jesus' Blood can cleanse them all. 4 Let that Love veil our transgression, Let that Blood our guilt efface: Save Thy people from oppression, Save from spoil Thy holy place.

When in the hour of utmost need

Author: Paul Eber; Miss Winkworth Hymnal: CBWM1872 #496 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When in the hour of utmost need We know not where to look for aid; When days and nights of anxious thought No help or counsel yet have brought: 2 Then this our comfort is alone, That we may meet before Thy throne And cry, O faithful God, to Thee For rescue from our misery: 3 To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes, Repenting sore with bitter sighs, And seek Thy pardon for our sin, And respite from our griefs within. 4 For Thou hast promised graciously To hear all those who cry to Thee, Through Him whose Name alone is great, Our Saviour and our Advocate. 5 And thus we come, O God, to-day, And all our woes before Thee lay; For tried, afflicted, lo!, we stand, Peril and foes on every hand. 6 Ah, hide not for our sins Thy face; Absolve us through Thy boundless grace; Be with us in our anguish still, Free us at last from every ill. 7 That so with all our hearts may we Once more with joy give thanks to Thee, And walk obedient to Thy Word, And now and ever praise the Lord.

Now may the God of power and grace

Author: Watts Hymnal: CBWM1872 #497 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Now may the God of power and grace Attend His people's humble cry! Jehovah hear when Israel prays, And bring deliverance from on high! 2 The Name of Jacob's God defends Better than shields or brazen walls; He from His sanctuary sends Succor and strength when Zion calls. 3 In His salvation is our hope, And in the Name of Israel's God, Our troops shall lift their banners up, Our navies spread their flags abroad. 4 Some trust in horses trained for war, And some of chariots make their boasts, Our surest expectations are From Thee, the Lord of heavenly hosts. 5 Now save us, Lord, from slavish fear; Now let our hope be firm and strong, Till Thy salvation shall appear, And joy and triumph raise the song.

Called down by faithful prayer, Saviour, appear below, Thy hand lift up, Thine arm make bare, And quell Thy people's foe. 2 Our Refuge in distress, In danger's darkest hour, Appear as in the ancient days, With full redeeming power: That Thy redeemed may sing In glad triumphant strains, The Lord is God, the Lord is King, The Lord for ever reigns! 3 We with our ears have heard, Our fathers us have told The work that in their days appeared. And in the times of old: With such deliverance bless Whom Thou hast chose for Thine, That men and nations may confess The work is all divine!

God of unbounded Power

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: CBWM1872 #499 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God of unbounded Power, God of unwearied Love, Be present in our dangerous hour Our danger to remove: Jesus, Jehovah, Lord, Thy wonted aid we claim; Not trusting in our bow or sword, But in Thy saving Name! 2 Our lives are hid with Thine, Our hairs are numbered all, Nor can without the Will divine One worthless sparrow fall. And shall a nation bleed, And shall a kingdom fail, While Thou, O Christ, art Lord and Head O'er heaven and earth and hell? 3 Beneath Thy wings secure, In patience we possess Our souls, and quietly endure Whate'er our God decrees. Teach us to understand The thunder of Thy power, And thus, O Lord, to Thy Hand, Thy Truth and Love adore. 4 Escaped the hostile sword, O may we fly to Thee, And find in our redeeming Lord Our life and liberty. Our Strength and Righteousness, O let us hold Thee fast, With confidence divine, and peace That shall for ever last.
