Send Me, O Lord, Send Me
Without Spot and Blameless
Author: William G. Schell Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: I'll rise at early morning hour Lyrics: 1 I’ll rise at early morning hour,
With first effulgent rays,
While nature’s songsters in the bow’r,
Send up their Maker’s praise;
I’ll bow before my God so dear,
And tarry till my heart shall hear
The Spirit’s witness sweet and clear:
“Without spot and blameless.”
2 While proud in heart, at bright midday,
Can find no time for prayer,
My thoughts shall soar from earth away,
To heaven, bright and fair:
Around the fam’ly altar knelt,
My heart with gratitude will melt,
Till blest assurance shall be felt,
“Without spot and blameless.”
3 And when the pleasant evening air
Is dusky with the night,
My soul shall turn to God in prayer,
In heaven’s golden light;
I’ll linger at the great white throne,
Until the thoughts of God are known,
And He shall claim me for His own,
“Without spot and blameless.”
4 With God’s approval on my soul
My body sinks to rest,
No doubts nor waves of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast;
And through the night that hand so mild
Protects from storms and billows wild
His helpless, trusting, loving child,
“Without spot and blameless.” Scripture: 2 Peter 3:14 Used With Tune: [I'll rise at early morning hour] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Without_Spot_and_Blameless); Faith Publishing House, Evening Light Songs, 1949, edited 1987 (193); The Gospel Trumpet Company, Select Hymns, 1911 (383)

O Love Divine
Author: Clara M. Brooks Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: O love divine! no soul has e'er Lyrics: 1 O love divine! no soul has e’er
Thy wondrous depths explored;
O priceless gift! we fain would have
Thy riches on us poured.
Let mortals join with all their might,
Let earth and heaven both unite
To sing thy praise both day and night—
The half can ne’er be told.
2 O love divine, what treasures yet
Within thy coffers lie!
The gold and silver of the earth
Would not thy riches buy.
E’en though the sands upon the shore
Of every sea should turn to ore
Of choicest metal, ’twere no more
Than naught compared to thee.
3 O love divine, in thee our souls
Eternal pleasures find,
Surpassing all that earth could give,
Were all its pow’rs combined.
Thy music sweet we love to sing,
Our spirits e’er to thee would cling,
An off’ring now of praise we bring,
In humble sacrifice.
4 O love divine, ’tis wonderful
That mortals here below
May share thy grace most excellent,
Thy wondrous power know!
Around our hearts fore’er entwine,
And let thy beauties in us shine,
That we may be, O love divine,
Completely lost in thee. Scripture: 1 John 4:16 Used With Tune: [O love divine, no soul has e'er] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/O_Love_Divine); Faith Publishing House, Echoes from Heaven, 1976 (126); The Gospel Trumpet Company, Select Hymns, 1911 (161)

In Silent Pain the Eternal Son
Author: Christopher Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In silent pain the eternal Son
Hangs derelict and still;
In darkened day His work is done,
Fulfilled, His Father’s will.
Uplifted for the world to see
He hangs in strangest victory,
For in His body on the tree
He carries all our ill.
2 He died that we might die to sin
And live for righteousness;
The earth is stained, to make us clean
And bring us into peace.
For peace He came, and met its cost;
He gave Himself to save the lost;
He loved us to the uttermost
And paid for our release.
3 For strife He came, to bring a sword,
The truth to end all lies;
To rule in us, our patient Lord,
Until all evil dies:
For in His hand He holds the stars,
His voice shall speak to end our wars,
And those who love Him see His scars
And look into His eyes. Topics: Lent; Good Friday Scripture: Matthew 10:34-39 Used With Tune: REALITY

My Faith, It Is an Oaken Staff
Author: Thomas T. Lynch Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My faith, it is an oaken staff,
The traveler’s well loved aid;
My faith, it is a weapon stout,
The soldier’s trusty blade,
I’ll travel on, and still be stirred,
By silent thought or social word;
By all my perils undeterred,
A soldier pilgrim staid.
2. I have a Guide, and in His steps
When travelers have trod,
Whether beneath was flinty rock
Or yielding grassy sod,
They cared not, but with force unspent,
Unmoved by pain, they onward went,
Unstayed by pleasures, still they bent
Their zealous course to God.
3. My faith, it is an oaken staff,
O let me on it lean!
My faith, it is a trusty sword,
May falsehood find it keen!
Thy Spirit, Lord, to me impart,
O make me what Thou ever art,
Of patient and courageous heart,
As all true saints have been. Used With Tune: THE STAFF OF FAITH Text Sources: The Rivulet: A Contribution to Sacred Song (London: Longman, 1855).

Safe At Home

Safe at home! safe at home!
Where no anxious cares are thronging,
Safe at home! safe at home!
Now a heavy burden presses,
And I walk thro’ thorny places,
Till my weary wandering ceases,
Safe at home! safe at home!
2 There I’ll see no tempest raging,
Safe at home! safe at home!
Sin no warfare wild is waging,
Safe at home! safe at home!
When shall come the blissful waking,
Where no painful head is aching,
Where no throbbing heart is breaking,
Safe at home! safe at home!
3 There are friends who with me parted,
Safe at home! safe at home!
No more wandering broken hearted,
Safe at home! safe at home!
Undisturbed while storms are sweeping,
Calmly now the loved are sleeping,
Ever in their Father’s keeping,
Safe at home! safe at home!
4 Dear ones gone before will meet me,
Safe at home! safe at home!
At the pearly gate will greet me,
Safe at home! safe at home!
Savior, dearest Savior, hear me,
I am weary, be Thou near me,
Oh, sustain me till Thou cheer me,
Safe at home! safe at home! Used With Tune: WHITE PLAINS Text Sources: Gospel Praise Book by Asa Hull (New York: D. W. Knowles, 1879)
