Love to the Brethren

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #278 (1845) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Graces First Line: Blest be the tie, that binds Lyrics: 1 Blest be the tie, that binds Our hearts in Christian love! The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above. 2 Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent pray'rs; Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts and our cares. 3 We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear; And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear. 4 When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain: But we shall still be join'd in heart, And hope to meet again. 5 From sorrow, toil, and pain, And sin, we shall be free; And perfect love and friendship reign Through all eternity.

Love divine, all love excelling

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #350 (1870) Topics: Christian Graces prayed for Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all love excelling, Joy of heaven, to earth come down! Fix in us Thy humble dwelling, All Thy faithful mercies crown. Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure, unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation, Enter every trembling heart! 2 Breathe, oh, breathe Thy loving spirit Into every troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit, Let us find Thy promised rest. Take away the love of sinning, Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. 3 Come, Almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy life receive; Graciously return, and never, Never more Thy temples leave! Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy hosts above; Pray, and praise Thee without ceasing, Glory in Thy precious love. 4 Finish then Thy new creation, Pure, unspotted may we be; Let us see Thy great salvation Perfectly restored in Thee! Change from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise. Languages: English

Oh, that my load of sin were gone!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #352 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Graces prayed for Lyrics: 1 Oh, that my load of sin were gone! Oh, that I could at last submit At Jesus' feet to lay it down, To lay my soul at Jesus' feet! 2 Rest for my soul I long to find: Saviour, if mine indeed Thou art, Give me Thy meek and lowly mind, And stamp Thine image on my heart. 3 Break off the yoke of inbred sin, And fully set my spirit free; I cannot res till pure within, Till I am wholly lost in Thee. 4 Fain would I learn of Thee, my God, Thy light and easy burden prove, The cross all stain'd with hallow'd blood The labor of Thy dying love. 5 I would; but Thou must give the power. My heart from every sin release; Bring near, bring near the joyful hour, And fill me with Thy perfect peace. Languages: English

Jesus, my strength, my hope

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #353 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Christian Graces prayed for Lyrics: 1 My God, my strength, my hope, On Thee I cast my care, With humble confidence look up, And know Thou hear’st my prayer. Give me on Thee to wait, Till I can all things do; On Thee, almighty to create, Almighty to renew. 2 I want a godly fear, A quick discerning eye, That looks to Thee when sin is near, And sees the tempter fly: A spirit still prepared, And arm'd with jealous care, For ever standing on its guard, And watching unto prayer. 3 I want a heart to pray, To pray and never cease, Never to murmur at thy stay Or wish my suff'rings less. This blessing, above all, Always to pray, I want, Out of the deep on Thee to call, And never, never faint. 4 I rest upon Thy Word; The promise is for me: My succor and salvation, Lord, Shall surely come from Thee. But let me still abide, Nor from my hope remove, Till Thou my patient spirit guide Into Thy perfect love. Languages: English

"The Head, even Christ"

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Laudes Domini #419 (1888) Topics: Christians Graces First Line: Blest be the dear, uniting love Lyrics: 1 Blest be the dear, uniting love, That will not let us part: Our bodies may far off remove; We still are one in heart. 2 Joined in one spirit to our Head, Where he appoints we go; We still in Jesus' footsteps tread, And show his praise below. 3 Oh, may we ever walk in him, And nothing know beside! Nothing desire, nothing esteem, But Jesus crucified! 4 Partakers of the Saviour's grace, The same in mind and heart, Not joy nor grief nor time nor place Nor life nor death can part.

I thirst, but not as once I did

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #420 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience Sanctification and christian graces Lyrics: 1 I thirst, but not as once I did, The vain delights of earth to share: Thy wounds, Emmanuel, all forbid That I should seek my pleasure there. 2 It was the sight of thy dear cross First wean'd my soul from earthly things; And taught me to esteem as dross The mirth of fools and pomp of kings. 3 I want that grace that springs from thee, That quickens all things where it flows, And makes a wretched thorn, like me, Bloom as the myrtle, or the rose. 4 Dear fountain of delight unknown! No longer sink below the brim; But overflow, and pour me down A living, and life-giving stream! 5 For sure, of all the plants that share The notice of thy Father's eye, None proves less grateful to his care, Or yields him meaner fruit than I.

My Lord! in whose presence I live

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #425 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: Christian experience Sanctification and christian graces Lyrics: 1 My Lord! in whose presence I live, Whose favour alone I desire; To whom all the hopes I conceive, With ardent devotion aspire; How pleasant is all that I meet! From fear of adversity free. I find even sorrow made sweet, Because 'tis assign'd me by thee. 2 Transported I see thee display Thy riches and glory divine; I have only my life to repay, To thee this best gift I resign. Thy will is the treasure I seek, For thou art as faithful as strong; There let me, obedient and meek, Repose myself all the day long, 3 My spirit and faculties fail; O finish what grace has begun! Destroy what is sinful and frail, And dwell in the soul thou hast won! Dear theme of my wonder and praise, I cry, who is worthy as Thou! I can only be silent and gaze; 'Tis all that is left to me now. 4 Oh glory, in which I am lost, Too deep for the plummet of thought! On an ocean of Deity toss'd, I'm swallow'd, I sink into naught. Yet lost and absorb'd as I seem, I chant to the praise of my King; And though overwhelm'd by the theme, Am happy whenever I sing.

Return, my roving heart, return

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #427 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience Sanctification and christian graces Lyrics: 1 Return, my roving heart, return, And chase these shadowy forms no more; Seek out some solitude to mourn, And thy forsaken God implore. 2 Wisdom and pleasure dwell at home; Retir'd and silent seek them there: This is the way to overcome, The way to break the tempter's snare. 3 And thou, my God, whose piercing eye Distinct surveys each deep recess, In these abstracted hours draw nigh, And with thy presence fill the place. 4 Through the mazes of my heart, My search let heav'nly wisdom guide; And still its radiant beams impart, Till all be search'd and purified. 5 Then with the visits of thy love, Vouchsafe my inmost soul to cheer; Till ev'ry grace shall join to prove, That God hath fix'd his dwelling there.
