Author: Juan Bautista Cabrera, 1837-1916 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13800 First Line: Nunca, Dios mío, cesará mi labio Lyrics: 1 Nunca, Dios mío, cesará mi labio,
De bendecirte, de cantar tu gloria,
Porque conservo de tu amor inmenso
Grata memoria.
2 Cuando perdido en mundanal sendero
No me cercaba sino niebla oscura,
Tú me miraste, y alumbróme un rayo
De tu luz pura.
3 Cuando inclinaba mi abatida frente
Por el pecado de mi necio yugo,
Dulce reposo, y eficaz alivio,
Darme te plugo.
4 Cuando los dones malgasté a porfía,
Con que a mi alma pródigo adornaste,
"Padre, he pecado," con dolor te dije,
Y me abrazaste.
5 Cuando en sus propios méritos se fiaba,
Nunca mi pecho con amor latía;
Hoy de amor late, porque en tus bondades
Sólo confía. Languages: Spanish Tune Title: [Nunca, Dios mío, cesará mi labio]

Ach, Mein Herr Jesu, Wenn Ich Dich Nicht Hätte
Author: Christian Gregor, 1723-1801 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13469 Meter: 11.10.11.6 Lyrics: 1 Ach, mein Herr Jesu, wenn ich dich nicht hätte
Und wenn dein Blut nicht für die Sünder redte,
Wo sollt ich Ärmster unter den Elenden
Mich sonst hinwenden?
2 Ich wüsste nicht, wo ich vor Jammer bliebe;
Denn wo ist solch ein Herz wie deins voll Liebe?
Du, du bist meine Zuversicht alleine;
Sonst weiß ich keine.
3 Hättst du dich nicht zuerst an mich gehangen,
Ich wär von selbst dich wohl nicht suchen gangen;
Du suchtest mich und nahmst mich mit Erbarmen
In deine Arme.
4 Nun dank ich dir vom Grunde meiner Seelen,
Dass du nach deinem ewigen Erwählen
Auch mich zu deiner Kreuzgemeine brachtest
Und selig machtest.

Charlotte Elliott
1789 - 1871 Author of "O Holy Saviour, Friend unseen" in The Hymnal Elliott, Charlotte, daughter of Charles Elliott, of Clapham and Brighton, and granddaughter of the Rev. H. Venn, of Huddersfield, was born March 18, 1789. The first 32 years of her life were spent mostly at Clapham. In 1823 she removed to Brighton, and died there Sept. 22, 1871. To her acquaintance with Dr. C. Malan, of Geneva, is attributed much of the deep spiritual-mindedness which is so prominent in her hymns. Though weak and feeble in body, she possessed a strong imagination, and a well-cultured and intellectual mind. Her love of poetry and music was great, and is reflected in her verse. Her hymns number about 150, a large percentage of which are in common use. The finest and most widely known of these are, "Just as I am” and "My God, my Father, while I stray." Her verse is characterized by tenderness of feeling, plaintive simplicity, deep devotion, and perfect rhythm. For those in sickness and sorrow she has sung as few others have done. Her hymns appeared in her brother's Psalms & Hymns and elsewhere as follows:—
(1) Psalms and Hymns for Public, Private, and Social Worship; selected by the Rev. H. V. Elliott, &c., 1835-48. In this Selection her signature is "C. E." (2) The Christian Remembrancer Pocket Book. This was originally edited by Miss Kiernan, of Dublin. Miss Elliott undertook the editorship in 1834. (3) The Invalid's Hymn Book. This was originally compiled by Miss Kiernan, but before publication was re-arranged by Miss Elliott, who also added 23 hymns in the first edition., 1834. These were increased in the following edition to the sixth in 1854, when her contributions amounted to 112. From that date no change was made in the work. (4) Hours of Sorrow Cheered and Comforted; or, Thoughts in Verse, 1836. (5) Morning and Evening Hymns for a Week, printed privately in 1839 for sale for a benevolent institution in Brighton, and published in 1842. (6) Thoughts in Verse on Sacred Subjects, 1869.
Miss Elliott's Poems were published, with a Memoir by her sister, Mrs. Babington, in 1873, and an additional volume of Leaves from her unpublished Journals and Poems, also appeared in 1870.
In addition to her more important hymns, which are annotated under their respective first lines, there are in common use:—
i. From The Invalid's Hymn-book, 1834-1841:—
1. Clouds and darkness round about thee. (1841.) Resignation.
2. Not willingly dost Thou afflict [reject]. (1841.) Divine Chastisement.
3. O God, may I look up to Thee. (1841.) Teach us to Pray.
4. This is enough; although 'twere sweet. (1834.) On being debarred from Divine Worship.
5. With tearful eyes I look around. (1841.) The Invitation "Come Unto Me."
ii. From H. V. Elliott's Psalms & Hymns, 1835-1839:—
6. Glorious was that primal light. Christmas.
7. Hail, holy day, most blest, most dear. Easter.
8. My only Saviour, when I feel. Jesus His people's Rest.
9. Now let our heavenly plants and flowers. Monday Morning.
10. The Sabbath-day has reached its close. Sunday Evening.
iii. From Miss Elliott's Hours of Sorrow, 1836:—
11. Father, when Thy child is dying. Prayer for a Departing Spirit.
12. Leaning on Thee, my Guide, my Friend. Death Anticipated.
13. My God, is any hour so sweet? The Hour of Prayer.
14. O faint and feeble-hearted. Resignation enforced.
15. There is a holy sacrifice. The Contrite Heart.
iv. From her Hymns for a Week, 1839:—
16. Guard well thy lips; none, none can know. Thursday Morning.
17. There is a spot of consecrated ground. Pt. i.
18. This is the mount where Christ's disciples see. Pt. ii. Monday Evening.
19. This is the day to tune with care. Saturday Morning.
v. From Thoughts in Verse on Sacred Subjects, 1869:—
20. As the new moons of old were given. On a Birthday.
21. I need no other plea. Pt. i.
22. I need no prayers to saints. Pt. ii. Christ, All in All.
23. Jesus, my Saviour, look on me. Christ, All in All.
Several of the earlier of these hymns were repeated in the later works, and are thus sometimes attributed to the wrong work. [Rev. James Davidson, B.A.]
