Savior, Thy Dying Love
Author: Sylvanus D. Phelps, 1816-1895 Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 556 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Savior, Thy dying love
Thou gavest me,
Nor should I aught withhold,
Dear Lord, from Thee;
In love my soul would bow,
My heart fulfill its vow,
Some offering bring Thee now,
Something for Thee.
2 At the blest mercy seat,
Pleading for me,
My feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to Thee;
Help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
Some song to raise, or prayer,
Something for Thee.
3 Give me a faithful heart,
Likeness to Thee,
That each departing day
Henceforth may see
Some work of love begun,
Some deed of kindness done,
Some wanderer sought and won,
Something for Thee.
4 All that I am and have,
Thy gifts so free,
In joy, in grief, through life,
Dear Lord, for Thee!
And when Thy face I see,
My ransomed soul shall be,
Through all eternity,
Something for Thee.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Dedication and Consecration; Jesus Passion; Stewardship Used With Tune: SOMETHING FOR JESUS

O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go
Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Appears in 676 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in Thee;
I give Thee back the life I owe,
That in Thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.
2 O Light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.
3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to Thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be.
4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from Thee;
I lay in dust life's glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Dedication and Consecration; Cross; Inner Life; Jesus Abiding with Believers; Love Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Used With Tune: ST. MARGARET

When I was lost in sin,
Of wondrous grace that brought me
Back to His fold again,
Of heights and depths of mercy
Far deeper than the sea
And higher than the heavens,
My theme shall ever be.

His saving grace to know;
He healed the brokenhearted
And caused the blind to see;
And still His great heart yearneth
In love for even me. [Refrain]

For us to suffer loss,
To bear without a murmur
The anguish of the cross;
With saints redeemed in glory
Let us our voices raise,
Till heaven and earth re-echo
With our Redeemer’s praise. [Refrain] Topics: The Christian Life Dedication and Consecration; Cross; God Grace; Love; Walking with God Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Used With Tune: SWEETER AS THE YEARS GO BY

God of Love, That Hearest Prayer
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 82 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of love, that hearest prayer,
Kindly for Thy people care
Who on Thee alone depend;
Love us, save us to the end.
2 Save us in the prosperous hour
From the flattering tempter’s power,
From his unsuspected wiles,
From the world’s pernicious smiles.
3 Men of worldly, low design,
Let not these Thy people join,
Poison our simplicity,
Drag us from our trust in Thee.
4 Save us from the great and wise,
Till they sink in their own eyes
Tamely to Thy yoke submit,
Lay their honors at Thy feet.
5 Never let the world break in,
Fix a mighty gulf between;
Keep us little and unknown,
Prized and loved by God alone.

What Various Hindrances We Meet
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 524 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What various hindrances we meet
In coming to a mercy seat;
Yet, who that knows the worth of prayer
But wishes to be often there?
2 Prayer makes the darkened clouds withdraw;
Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw;
Gives exercise to faith and love;
Brings every blessing from above.
3 Restraining prayer, we cease to fight;
Prayer makes the Christian’s armor bright;
And Satan trembles when he sees
The weakest saint upon his knees.
4 Were half the breath oft vainly spent,
To heaven in supplication sent,
Our cheerful song would oftener be,
"Hear what the Lord has done for me." Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Conflict; Faith; Prayer Scripture: Exodus 25:22 Used With Tune: QUEBEC

Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me
Author: Augustus M. Toplady, 1740-1778 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,901 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath and make me pure.
2 Could my tears forever flow,
Could my zeal no languor know,
These for sin could not atone:
Thou must save, and Thou alone.
In my hand no price I bring;
Simply to Thy cross I cling,
3 While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyes shall close in death,
When I rise to worlds unknown,
And behold Thee on Thy throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Death Scripture: Exodus 33:22 Used With Tune: TOPLADY

Let each his friendly aid afford,
And feel his brother’s care.

Our little stock improve;
Increase our faith, confirm our hope,
And perfect us in love.

Let us in all things grow,
Till Thou hast made us free indeed,
And spotless here below.

Receive Thy ready bride:
Give us in heaven a happy lot
With all the sanctified.
