O Jesus, crucified for man

Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: LHTC1918 #69 (1917) Tune Title: HAMBURG Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, crucified for man, O Lamb, all-glorious on Thy throne, Teach Thou our wondering souls to scan The mystery of Thy love unknown. 2 We pray Thee, grant us strength to take Our daily cross, whate’er it be, And gladly for Thine own dear sake In paths of pain to follow Thee. 3 As on our daily way we go, Through light or shade, in calm or strife, O may we bear Thy marks below In conquered sin and chastened life. 4 And week by week this day we ask That holy memories of Thy Cross May sanctify each common task, And turn to gain each earthly loss. 5 Grant us, dear Lord, our cross to bear, Till at Thy feet we lay it down, Win through Thy Blood our pardon there, And through the cross attain the crown. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English

God calling yet!-- shall I not hear?

Author: Gerhard Tersteegen, d. 1769; Sarah Borthwick Findlater Hymnal: LHTC1918 #312 (1917) Tune Title: HAMBURG Lyrics: 1 God calling yet!--shall I not hear? Earth's pleasures shall I still hold dear? Shall life's swift passing years all fly, And still my soul in slumbers lie? 2 God calling yet!--shall I not rise? Can I His loving voice despise, And basely His kind care repay? He calls me still; can I delay? 3 God calling yet! and shall He knock And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet!--and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still:--My heart, awake! 5 Ah, yield Him all: in Him confide: Where but with Him doth peace abide? Break loose, let earthly bonds be riven, And let the spirit rise to heaven! Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Repentance Languages: English

O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LHTC1918 #318 (1917) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: HAMBURG Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry, Though all my crimes before Thee lie, Behold them not with angry look, But blot their memory from Thy book. 2 Create my nature pure within, And form my soul averse to sin; Let Thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Nor hide Thy presence from my heart. 3 I cannot live without Thy light, Cast out and banish from Thy sight; Thy holy joys, my God, restore, And guard me that I fall no more. 4 A broken heart, my God, my King, Is all the sacrifice I bring; Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye And save the soul condemned to die. 5 O may Thy love inspire my tongue! Salvation shall be all my song, And all my powers shall join to bless The Lord, my Strength and Righteousness. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Repentance Languages: English

My God and Father, while I stray

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: LHTC1918 #408a (1917) Tune Title: HANFORD Lyrics: 1 My God and Father, while I stray Far from my home. in life's rough way, O teach me from my heart to say, "Thy will be done." 2 Though dark my path, and sad my lot, Let me be still and murmur not, Or breathe the prayer, divinely taught, "Thy will be done." 3 What though in lonely grief I sigh For friends beloved, no longer nigh; Submissive still would I reply, "Thy will be done." 4 If Thou should'st call me to resign What most I prize, it ne'er was mine: I only yield Thee what is Thine; "Thy will be done." 5 Renew my will from day to day, Blend it with Thine, and take away All that now makes it hard to say, "Thy will be done."

O worship the King, all-glorious above

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: LHTC1918 #294a (1917) Tune Title: HANOVER Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all-glorious above, And gratefully sing His wonderful love; Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days, Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise. 2 O tell of His might and sing of His grace, Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space; His chariots of wrath the deep thunder-clouds form, And dark is His path on the wings of the storm. 3 The earth with its store of wonders untold, Almighty, Thy power hath founded of old: Hast stablished it fast by a changeless decree, And round it hast cast like a mantle the sea. 4 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air, it shines in the light, It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail; Thy mercies how tender! how firm to the end Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. 6 O measureless Might, ineffable Love! While angels delight to hymn Thee above, The humbler creation, though feeble its lays, With true adoration shall sing to Thy praise. Amen.

Christ, our God, to Thee we raise, This our sacrifice of praise. 3 For the joy of ear and eye, For the heart and mind’s delight, For the mystic harmony Linking sense to sound and sight, Christ, our God, to Thee we raise, This our sacrifice of praise. 4 For Thyself, best Gift divine! To our race so freely given, For that great, great love of thine, Peace on earth and joy in heaven, Christ, our God, to Thee we raise, This our sacrifice of praise. Amen.
