Saviour, when in dust to Thee

Author: Sir R. Grant, 1785-1838 Appears in 443 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, when in dust to Thee Low we bow the adoring knee; When, repentant, to the skies, Scarce we lift our weeping eyes, O, by all Thy pains and woe, Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn litany! 2 By Thy helpless infant years, By Thy life of want and tears, By Thy fasting and distress In the savage wilderness; By the dread, mysterious hour Of the insulting tempter's power, Turn, O turn a favouring eye, Hear our solemn litany! 3 By the sacred grief that wept O'er the grave where Lazarus slept; By the boding tears that flowed Over Salem's loved abode; By the mournful word that told Treachery lurked within Thy fold; From Thy seat above the sky, Hear our solemn litany! 4 By Thine hour of dire despair, By thine agony of prayer, By the cross, the nail, the thorn Piercing spear, and torturing scorn; By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful sacrifice; Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn litany! 5 By Thy deep expiring groan, By the sealed sepulchral stone, By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God; O from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, re-ascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry Of our solemn litany!

Thou, by heav'nly hosts adored

Author: Henry Harbaugh Appears in 49 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou, by heav'nly hosts adored, Gracious, mighty, sovereign Lord, God of nations, King of kings, Head of all created things, By the Church with joy confessed, God o'er all for ever blest, Pleading at Thy throne we stand, Save Thy people, bless our land. 2 From all public sin and shame, From ambition's grasping aim, From rebellion, war and death, From the pestilential breath, From dread famine's awful stroke, From oppression's galling yoke, From the judgments of Thy hand, Spare Thy people, spare our land. 3 Let our rulers ever be Men that love and honor Thee; Let the powers by Thee ordained Be in righteousness maintained; In the people's hearts increase Love of piety and peace; Thus united, we shall stand One wide, free, and happy land. Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons National Used With Tune: TICHFIELD

Not your own, but His ye are

Author: Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836-1879 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not your own, but His ye are, Who hath paid a price untold For your life, exceeding far All earth's stores of gems and gold. With the precious blood of Christ, Ransom treasure all unpriced, Full redemption is procured, Full salvation is assured. 2 Not your own to Him ye owe All your life and all your love; Live, that ye His praise may show, Who is yet all praise above. Every day and every hour, Every gift and every power Consecrate to Him alone, Who hath claimed you for His own. 3 Teach us, Master, how to give All we have and are to Thee; Grant us, Saviour, while we live, Wholly, only Thine to be. Henceforth be our calling high Thee to serve and glorify; Ours no longer, but Thine own, Thine for ever, Thine alone!
