Guiding in love and truth
Through devious ways,
Christ, our triumphant King,
We come Thy name to sing,
Hither our children bring
To shout Thy praise.

The 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 Ever be Thou our Guide,
Our Shepherd and our Pride,
Our Staff and Song;
Jesus, Thou Christ of God,
By Thy perennial Word,
Lead us where Thou hast trod,
Make our faith strong.
4 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!

salvation to the Lamb!"

the beatific sight.

let all on earth below
record and dwell upon thy love.

thine everlasting praise. Topics: Praise of God; Trinity Used With Tune: FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH

Chief of Sinners Though I Be
Author: William McComb, 1793-1873 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 90 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 3:17-18 Lyrics: 1 Chief of sinners though I be,
Jesus shed His blood for me.
Died that I might live on high,
Lived that I might never die.
As the branch is to the vine,
I am His and He is mine.
2 Oh, the height of Jesus' love,
Higher than the heav'ns above,
Deeper than the depths of sea,
Lasting as eternity!
Love that found me--wondrous thought!
Found me when I sought Him not.
3 Only Jesus can impart
Balm to heal the wounded heart,
Peace that flows from sin forgiv'n,
Joy that lifts the soul to heav'n.
Faith and hope to walk with God
In the way that Enoch trod.
4 Chief of sinners though I be,
Christ is all in all to me.
All my wants to Him are known,
All my sorrows are His own.
He sustains the hidden life
Safe with Him from earthly strife.
5 O my Savior, help afford
By Your Spirit and Your Word!
When my wayward heart would stray,
Keep me in the narrow way;
Grace in time of need supply
While I live and when I die.
