"His free ways"
Author: F. W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #149 (1890) Topics: Christ Character of; Christ Character of First Line: Oh, see how Jesus trusts himself Lyrics: 1 Oh, see how Jesus trusts himself
Unto our childish love!
As though by his free ways with us
Our earnestness to prove.
His sacred name a common word
On earth he loves to hear;
There is no majesty in him
Which love may not come near.
2 The light of love is round his feet,
His paths are never dim;
And he comes nigh to us when we
Dare not come nigh to him.
Let us be simple with him then,
Not backward, stiff, nor cold,
As though our Bethlehem could be
What Sinai was of old. Languages: English

The Great Teacher

From lips of gentleness and grace,
When listening thousands gathered round,
And joy and gladness filled the place!

To heaven he led his followers' way;
Dark clouds of gloomy night he broke,
Unvailing an immortal day.
3 "Come, wanderers, to my Father's home,
Come, all ye weary ones, and rest;"
Yes, sacred Teacher, we will come,
Obey thee, love thee, and be blest!
4 Decay then, tenements of dust;
Pillars of earthly pride, decay:
A nobler mansion waits the just,
And Jesus has prepared the way.

That in thy meekness used to shine,
That lit thy lonely pathway, trod
In wondrous love, O Son of God!

So pure, so made to live in light?
Oh, who like thee did ever go
So patient through a world of woe?
3 Oh, who like thee so humbly bore
The scorn, the scoffs of men, before?
So meek, forgiving, godlike, high,
So glorious in humility?
4 Even death, which sets the prisoner free,
Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to thee;
Yet love through all thy torture glowed,
And mercy with thy life-blood flowed.
5 Oh, in thy light be mine to go,
Illuming all my way of woe!
And give me ever on the road
To trace thy footsteps, Son of God. Languages: English

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Laudes Domini #154 (1890) Topics: Christ Character of; Christ Character of First Line: When, like a stranger on our sphere Lyrics: 1 When, like a stranger on our sphere,
The lowly Jesus wandered here,
Where'er he went, affliction fled,
And sickness reared her fainting head.
2 The eye that rolled in irksome night,
Behold his face for God is light;
The opening ear, the loosened tongue,
His precepts heard, his praises sung.
3 With bounding steps the halt and lame,
To hail their great Deliverer came;
O'er the cold grave he bowed his head,
He spake the word, and raised the dead.
4 Despairing madness, dark and wild,
In his inspiring presence smiled;
The storm of horror ceased to roll,
And reason lightened through the soul.
5 Through paths of loving-kindness led,
Where Jesus triumphed we would tread;
To all, with willing hands dispense
The gifts of our benevolence. Languages: English

Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell! (Refrain) Languages: English Tune Title: [O soul, are you weary and troubled?]

Hymnal: The Psalter #157 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Character Vicious; The Wicked Character of First Line: Protect and save me, O my God Lyrics: 1 Protect and save me, O my God,
From foes that seek my life;
And set me high, secure, above
The rising tide of strife.
2 The workers of iniquity
Against me lie in wait;
Tho' I am innocent, O Lord,
They gather in their hate.
3 Behold their wickedness, O Lord;
To help me, O awake,
Lord God of Hosts, Thou, Israel's God,
Arise, and vengeance take.
4 My enemies with deadly rage
Renew their fierce attack;
They think the Lord will not regard,
But Thou wilt turn them back.
5 O God, my strength, on Thee I wait;
To Thee for refuge flee.
My God with mercy will defend
Triumphant I shall be.
6 O God our shield, let wickedness
And pride be put to shame.
Till all shall know that Thou dost rule,
And all shall fear Thy Name.
7 Let wickedness that raged in power
Now rage in impotence;
But I will glory in Thy strength
My refuge and defense.
8 When all the night of woe is past
And morning dawns at length,
Then I will praise Thy grace, O God,
My refuge and my strength.
9 To Thee, O god most merciful,
My thankful song I raise;
My might, my strong, secure abode,
I will proclaim Thy praise. Scripture: Psalm 59 Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.
In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s my stay.
He tells me every care on Him to roll:
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
2 He all my griefs has taken, and all my sorrows borne;
In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tower;
I have all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn
From my heart, and now He keeps me by His power.
Though all the world forsake me and Satan tempt me sore,
Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal;:
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
3 He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here,
While I live by faith and do His blessed will;
A wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear,
With His manna He my hungry soul shall fill.
Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessed face,
Where rivers of delight shall ever roll:
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. Languages: English Tune Title: [I have found a friend in Jesus]

The true Test
Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: Laudes Domini #158 (1890) Topics: Christ Character of; Christ Character of First Line: We may not climb the heavenly steeps Lyrics: 1 We may not climb the heavenly steeps
To bring the Lord Christ down;
In vain we search the lowest deeps,
For him no depths can drown.
2 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet
A present help is he;
And faith has yet its Olivet,
And love its Galilee.
3 The healing of the seamless dress,
Is by our beds of pain;
We touch him in life's throng and press,
And we are whole again.
4 Through him the first fond prayers are said
Our lips of childhood frame;
The last low whispers of our dead
Are burdened with his name.
5 O Lord and Master of us all,
Whate'er our name or sign,
We own thy sway, we hear thy call,
We test our lives by thine!
