Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 7.6 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O bread to pilgrims given, Richer than angels eat, O Manna sent from heaven, For heaven-born natures meet! Give us, for Thee long pining, To eat till richly filled; Till, earth's delights resigning, Our every wish is stilled! 2 O Fountain, life-bestowing, From out the Saviour's heart, A Fountain purely flowing, A Fount of Love Thou art! Oh let us, freely tasting, Our burning thirst assuage! Thy sweetness never wasting, Avails from age to age. 3 Jesus, this feast receiving, We Thee unseen adore; Thy faithful word believing, We take, and doubt no more: Give us, Thou true and loving, On earth to live in Thee; Then, death the veil removing, Thy glorious face to see!

Lord of the Living Harvest

Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 119 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord of the living harvest That whitens o'er the plain, Where angels soon shall gather Their sheaves of golden grain, Accept these hands to labor, These hearts to trust and love, And deign with them to hasten Thy kingdom from above. 2 As lab'rers in Thy vineyard, Still faithful may they be, Content to bear the burden Of weary days for Thee; To ask no other wages, When Thou shalt call them home, But to have shared the travail Which makes Thy kingdom come. 3 Come down, Thou Holy Spirit, And fill their souls with light, Clothe them in spotless raiment, In vesture clean and white; Within Thy sacred temple Be with them where they stand, To guide and teach Thy people In this and every land. 4 Be with them, God the Father! Be with them, God the Son! And God the Holy Spirit! Most blessèd Three in One! Make them Thy chose heralds, On them the Spirit pour, And fill them with Thy fullness Both now and evermore! Amen.

O Come Before Jehovah

Author: Paul E. Kretzmann Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O come before Jehovah And bless His holy name; With songs of grateful gladness Make known abroad His fame, Who with His arm of power Has been our help and shield, So that we stand undaunted And safely hold the field. 2 To God alone all glory Who helped us hitherto, Whose mercy and compassion Have been each morning new; Who kept our feet from stumbling And shed abroad His light When doubt and danger threatened To leave our souls in night. 3 We praise our heav'nly Father, Who filled us with His love, Who sent in fullest measure His mercy from above; Who helped us in our labors With courage ever new, That we to His example Might evermore be true. 4 Be with us, Lord, we pray Thee, As we pursue our way; Be with us, Lord, and keep us And bless us day by day, That we, Thy children, growing In spirit like to Thee, May serve Thee in our neighbor With fervent love and free.

Anbetung Dir, dem Lamme

Author: Julius Löwen, 1822-1907 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Anbetung Dir, dem Lamme, Das unsre Sünden trug. Dort an des Kreuzes Stamme Wardst Du für uns ein Fluch! Preis Dir, daß Du gegeben In heißer Liebesglut Für uns Dein teures Leben Und Dein Versöhnungsblut! 2 Wer könnte je ergründen Die Tiefen und die Höhn, Und wer Verständnis finden Von dem, was dort geschehn! Du, alles Lebens Quelle, Des ew'gen Gottes Sohn, Du hast an unsrer Stelle Geschmeckt der Sünde Lohn! 3 Preis und Anbetung bringen Wir Dir, o Herr, dafür! Von Deiner Liebe singen In Schwachheit wir schon hier. Was wird es sein, wenn droben, In Deiner Herrlichkeit, Dich jeder Mund wird loben, O Lamm, in Ewigkeit! Used With Tune: [Anbetung Dir, dem Lamme]
