Spirit of God, descend up on my heart

Author: George Croly, 1780 - 1860 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #129 (1958) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart; Wean it from earth, through all its pulses move; Stoop to my weakness, mighty as thou art, And make me love thee as I ought to love. 2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, No sudden rending of the veil of clay, No angel visitant, no opening skies; But take the dimness of my soul away. A-men. 3 Hast thou not bid me love thee, God and King; All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind? I see thy Cross; there teach my heart to cling; O let me seek thee, and O let me find! 4 Teach me to love thee as thine angels love, One holy passion filling all my frame: The baptism of the heaven-descended Dove, My heart an altar, and thy love the flame. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Pentecost - The Holy Ghost; The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ The Inner Life Languages: English Tune Title: MORECAMBE

For all the saints who from their labors rest

Author: William Walsham How, 1823 - 97 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #144a (1958) Meter: 10.10.10.4 Lyrics: 1 For all the saints who from their labors rest, Who thee by faith before the world confessed, Thy Name, O Jesus, be for ever blest. Alleluia! Alleluia! 2 Thou wast their rock, their fortress and their might; Thou, Lord, their Captain in their well-fought fight; Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true light. Alleluia! Alleluia! 3 O may thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold, Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old, And win, with them, the victor's crown of gold. Alleluia! Alleluia! 4 O blest communion, fellowship divine! We feebly struggle, they in glory shine; Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine. Alleluia! Alleluia! 5 And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long, Steals on the ear the distant triumph-song, And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong. Alleluia! Alleluia! 6 The golden evening brightens in the west; Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest; Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest. Alleluia! Alleluia! 7 But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day: The saints triumphant rise in bright array; The King of Glory passes on his way. Alleluia! Alleluia! 8 From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast, Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host, Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost: Alleluia! Alleluia!

A-men. 3 O holy Jesus, Prince of Peace and Saviour, To thee we owe the peace that still prevails; Stilling the rude wills of men’s wild behavior And calming passion’s fierce and stormy gales. 4 O Holy Ghost, the Lord and the Life-giver, Thine is the quickening power that gives increase; From thee have flowed, as from a pleasant river, Our plenty, wealth, prosperity and peace. 5 O Triune God, with heart and voice adoring, Praise we the goodness that doth crown our days; Pray we that thou wilt hear us, still imploring Thy love and favor, kept to us always. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Trinity Sunday - The Holy Trinity; Church Life and Work City, Nation, World Languages: English Tune Title: ANCIENT OF DAYS

A-men. 3 Lord, thou canst help when earthly armor faileth, Lord, thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth, Lord, o'er thy rock nor death nor hell prevaileth; Grant us thy peace, Lord. 4 Peace in our hearts, our evil thoughts assuaging, Peace in thy Church, where brothers are engaging, Peace when the world its busy war is waging; Calm thy foes' raging. 5 Grant us thy help till backward they are driven; Grant them thy truth, that they may be forgiven; Grant peace on earth, and, after we have striven, Peace in thy heaven.

Christian, up and smite them, Counting gain but loss; Smite them by the merit Of the holy Cross. 2 Christian, dost thou feel them, How they work within, Striving, tempting, luring, Goading into sin? Christian, never tremble, Never be down-cast; Gird thee for the battle, Watch and pray and fast. 3 Christian, dost thou hear them, How they speak thee fair: Always fast and vigil, Always watch and prayer? Christian, answer boldly, 'While I breathe, I pray.' Peace shall follow battle, Night shall end in day. 4 Well I know thy trouble, O my servant true, Thou art very weary, I was weary too; But that toil shall make thee Some day all mine own, But the end of sorrow Shall be near my throne.
