Jesu, Lord of life and glory
Author: John Cummins, 1795-1867 Hymnal: NEH1985 #68 (1986) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, Lord of life and glory,
Bend from heaven thy gracious ear;
While our waiting souls adore thee,
Friend of helpless sinners, hear:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
2 From the depth of nature's blindness,
From the hardening power of sin,
From all malice and unkindness,
From the pride that lurks within:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
3 When temptation sorely presses,
In the day of Satan's power,
In our times of deep distresses,
In each dark and trying hour:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
4 In the weary hours of sickness,
In the times of grief and pain,
When we feel our mortal weakness,
When the creature's help is vain:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
5 In the solemn hour of dying,
In the face of judgement day,
May our souls, on thee relying,
Find thee still our rock and stay:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
6 Jesu, may thy promised blessing
Comfort to our souls afford;
May we now, thy love possessing,
And at length our full reward,
Ever praise thee,
Good and ever-glorious Lord. Topics: The Christian Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: ST RAPHAEL
Jesu, Lord of life and glory
Lord, in this thy mercy's day
Author: Isaac Williams, 1802-65 Hymnal: NEH1985 #69 (1986) Meter: 7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, in this thy mercy's day,
Ere it pass for ay away,
On our knees we fall and pray.
2 Lord, on us thy Spirit pour,
Kneeling lowly at the door,
Lest it close for evermore.
3 By thy night of agony,
By thy supplicating cry,
By thy willingness to die.
4 By thy tears of bitter woe,
For Jerusalem below,
Let us not thy love forgo.
5 Grant us 'neath thy wings a place,
Lest we lose the day of grace,
Ere we shall behold thy face.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: ST PHILIP

Lord Jesus, think on me
Author: Synesius of Cyrene, 374-430; A. W. Chatfield, 1808-96 Hymnal: NEH1985 #70a (1986) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, think on me,
And purge away my sin;
From earthborn passions set me free,
And make me pure within.
2 Lord Jesus, think on me,
With care and woe opprest;
Let me thy loving servant be,
And taste thy promised rest.
3 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Amid the battle's strife;
In all my pain and misery
Be thou my health and life.
4 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point thou the heavenly way.
5 Lord Jesus, think on me,
When flows the tempest high:
When on doth rush the enemy
O Saviour, be thou nigh.
6 Lord Jesus, think on me,
That, when the flood is past,
I may the eternal brightness see,
And share thy joy at last.

Maker of earth, to thee alone
Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: NEH1985 #71 (1986) Lyrics: 1 Maker of earth, to thee alone
Perpetual rest belongs;
And those bright choirs around thy throne
May pour their endless songs.
2 But we--ah, holy now no more!
Are doomed to toil and pain;
Yet exiles on an alien shore
May sing their country’s strain.
3 Father, whose promise binds thee still
To heal the suppliant throng,
Grant us to mourn the deeds of ill
That banish us so long;
4 And, while we mourn, in faith to rest
Upon thy love and care,
Till thou restore us with the blest
The song of heaven to share.
5 O God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Holy Ghost,
To thee be praise, great Three in One,
From thy created host. Amen.

Maker of earth, to thee alone
My faith looks up to thee
Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-87 Hymnal: NEH1985 #72 (1986) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
Be wholly thine.
2 May thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As thou hast died for me,
O may my love to thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll,
Blest Saviour, then in love
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul.

My faith looks up to thee
My God, I love thee; not because
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-78 Hymnal: NEH1985 #73a (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My God, I love thee; not because
I hope for heaven thereby,
Nor yet because who love thee not
Are lost eternally.
2 Thou, O my Jesus, thou didst me
Upon the Cross embrace;
For me didst bear the nails and spear,
And manifold disgrace,
3 And griefs and torments numberless,
And sweat of agony;
E'en death itself; and all for one
That was thine enemy.
4 Then why, O blessèd Jesu Christ,
Should I not love thee well,
Not for the sake of winning heaven,
Or of escaping hell;
5 Not with the hope of gaining aught,
Not seeking a reward;
But as thyself hast lovèd me,
O ever-loving Lord!
6 E’en so I love thee, and will love,
And in thy praise will sing,
Solely because thou art my God,
And my eternal King. Topics: The Christian Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: SOLOMON

My God, I love thee; not because
O for a heart to praise my God
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: NEH1985 #74 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God,
A heart from sin set free;
A heart that always feels thy blood
So freely spilt for me:
2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek,
My dear Redeemer’s throne;
Where only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone:
3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart,
Believing, true, and clean,
Which neither life nor death can part
From him that dwells within:
4 A heart in every thought renewed,
And full of love divine;
Perfect and right and pure and good,
A copy, Lord,of thine.
5 My heart, thou know'st, can never rest
Till thou create my peace;
Till of mine Eden repossest,
From self, and sin, I cease.
6 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart,
Come quickly from above;
Write thy new name upon my heart,
Thy new best name of love.

O for a heart to praise my God
O thou who dost accord us
Author: J. W. Hewett Hymnal: NEH1985 #75 (1986) Lyrics: 1 O thou, who dost accord us
The highest prize and guerdon,
Thou hope of all our race,
Jesu, do thou afford us
The gift we ask of pardon
For all who humbly seek thy face.
2 With whispered accusation
Our conscience tells of sinning
In thought and word and deed;
Thine is the restoration,
The work of grace beginning
For souls from every burden freed.
3 For who, if thou reject us,
Shall raise the fainting spirit?
'Tis thine alone to spare:
That thou to life elect us
Through our Redeemer's merit,
Shall be thy people's lowly prayer.
4 O Trinity most glorious,
Thy pardon free bestowing,
Defend us evermore;
That in thy courts victorious,
Thy love more truly knowing,
We may with all thy saints adore.
