you were fasting in the wild;
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled.
2 Sunbeams scorching all the day,
chilly dewdrops nightly shed;
prowling beasts about our way;
stones your pillow, earth your bed.
3 Shall not we your trial share,
and from earthly joys abstain,
fasting with unceasing prayer,
strong with you to suffer pain?
4 If temptations, vexing sore,
flesh or spirit should assail,
you their vanquisher before,
grant we may not faint nor fail.
5 Keep, oh keep us, Saviour dear,
ever constant by your side;
that with you we may appear
at the eternal Eastertide. Used With Tune: HEINLEIN

The day of march has come;
henceforth in fields of conquest
your tents shall be our home.
Through days of preparation
your grace has made us strong,
and now, O King eternal,
we lift our battle song.
2 Lead on, O King eternal,
till sin's fierce war shall cease,
and holiness shall whisper
the sweet amen of peace;
for not with swords' loud clashing,
nor roll of stirring drums;
with deeds of love and mercy
the heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King eternal:
we follow, not with fears,
for gladness breaks like morning
where'er your face appears;
your cross is lifted o'er us;
we journey in its light.
The crown awaits the conquest;
lead on, O God of might!
Scripture: Isaiah 48:17 Used With Tune: LANCASHIRE
Lead On, O King Eternal!

my grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply.
The flame shall not hurt you; I only design
your dross to consume and your gold to refine.

O Lord, I would delight in Thee
Author: John Ryland Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 243 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Trust in Christ and Redemption Lyrics: 1 O Lord, I would delight in Thee,

Thy fulness is the same;
May I with this be satisfied,
And glory in Thy Name!
3 No good in creatures can be found,
But may be found in Thee;
I must have all things, and abound,
While God is God to me.
4 O that I had a stronger faith
To look within the veil,
To credit what my Saviour saith,
Whose word can never fail!
5 He that has made my heaven secure,
Will here all good provide:
While Christ is rich, can I be poor?
What can I want beside?
6 O Lord, I cast my care on Thee;
I triumph and adore:
Henceforth my great concern shall be
To love and please Thee more. Used With Tune: ST. STEPHEN'S

When heated in the chase,
So longs my soul, O God, for thee,
And thy refreshing grace.

My thirsty soul doth pine;
O when shall I behold thy face,
Thou Majesty Divine!
3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Trust God; and he'll employ
His aid for thee, and change these sighs
To thankful hymns of joy.
4 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Hope still; and thou shalt sing
The praise of him who is thy God,
Thy health's eternal spring.

Jesus, priceless treasure
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.3.4.8.6 Appears in 131 hymnals Topics: Christian Life Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
Fount of purest pleasure,
Truest friend to me:
Ah, how long in anguish
Shall my spirit languish,
Yearning, Lord, for thee?
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb!
I will suffer naught to hide thee,
Naught I ask beside thee.
2 In thine arms I rest me;
Foes who would molest me
Cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
Ev'ry heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear.
Lightnings flash and thunders crash;
Yet, though sin and hell assail me,
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Satan, I defy thee;
Death, I now decry thee;
Fear, I bid thee cease.
World, thou shalt not harm me
Nor thy threats alarm me
While I sing of peace.
God's great pow'r guards ev'ry hour;
Earth and all its depths adore him,
Silent bow before him.
4 Hence with earthly treasure!
Thou art all my pleasure,
Jesus, all my choice.
Hence, thou empty glory!
Naught to me thy story,
Told with tempting voice.
Pain or loss or shame or cross
Shall not from my Saviour move me,
Since he deigns to love me.
5 Hence, all fear and sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in.
Those who love the Father,
Though the storms may gather,
Still have peace within.
Yea, whate'er I here must bear,
Thou art still my purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure.
Amen. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:7 Used With Tune: LINDEMAN
