How shall I follow Him I serve?

Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 80 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 How shall I follow Him I serve? How shall I copy Him I love? Nor from those blessèd footsteps swerve, Which lead me to His seat above? 2 Lord, should my path through suffering lie, Forbid it I should e'er repine; Still let me turn to Calvary, Nor heed my griefs, remembering Thine. 3 O let me think how Thou didst leave Untasted every pure delight, To fast, to faint, to watch, to grieve, The toilsome day, the homeless night:-- 4 To faint, to grieve, to die for me! Thou camest not Thyself to please; And, dear as earthly comforts be, Shall I not love Thee more than these? Amen. Topics: The Church Year Septuagesima to Lent Used With Tune: SAXBY

Where high the heavenly temple stands

Author: Michael Bruce Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 204 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands, The house of God not made with hands, A great High-Priest our nature wears, The Saviour of mankind appears. 2 He who for men their surety stood, And pour'd on earth His precious Blood, Pursues in heav'n His mighty plan, The Saviour and the Friend of man. 3 Though now ascended up on high, He bends on earth a brother’s eye; Partaker of the human name, He knows the frailty of our frame. 4 In every pang that rends the heart The Man of Sorrows had a part; He sympathizes with our grief, And to the sufferer sends relief. 5 With boldness therefore at the throne Let us make all our sorrows known, And ask the aids of heav'nly power To help us in the evil hour. Amen. Topics: The Church Year The Kingdom and Glory of Christ Used With Tune: SAXBY

Author: Anna Hoppe Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, the children's Friend, To Thee the orphans we commend; Do Thou their ev'ry need supply Until they reach their home on high. 2 Thou pleadest still so tenderly, "Let little ones come unto Me." O grant us grace to do Thy will, Our hearts with love and mercy fill. 3 Bless Thou the fatherless, we pray, Abide with them from day to day, Feed Thou Thy lambs, O dearest Lord, In verdant pastures of Thy Word. 4 Grant that we heed Thy Word's commands, And give us willing hearts and hands; Let us our gifts of love bestow, That they Thy boundless love may know. 5 Bless all who in the parents' stead Provide these little ones with bread; Bless all who shield with loving arms These helpless ones from all alarms. 6 O precious Saviour, hear our prayers! Protect Thy lambs from earthy snares; Be Thou their Guide, O heavenly Friend, Until they reach their journey's end. Amen.
