Spirit Divine, attend our pray'r

Author: Andrew Reed Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #110a (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 Spirit Divine, attend our pray'r, And make our hearts Thy home; Descend with all Thy gracious pow'r; O come, great Spirit, come. 2 Come as the light--to us reveal Our sinfulness and woe, And lead us in those paths of life, Where all the righteous go. 3 Come as the fire, and purge our hearts Like sacrificial flame; Let ev'ry soul an off'ring be To our Redeemer's name. 4 Come as the dove, and spread Thy wings, The wings of peaceful love, And let the Church on earth become Blest as the Church above.

Come, humble soul, receive the food

Author: Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #268a (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 Come, humble soul, receive the food Your Savior offers here, Believe, and taste that He is good, And fain each soul would cheer. 2 Deem not that you to heav'n can rise, To meet your Savior there, He comes in mercy from the skies That you His bliss may share. 3 Here we commune with Him who died, Us power o'er death to give, The life of Him now glorified We here receive, and live. 4 For 'tis His body that we eat, His precious blood we drink, To make us for His mansion meet, And save from ruin's brink. 5 He ever lives, and only He, In whom the Lord abides, And here, that He in us may be, He richest food provides.

Jesus! the very thought of Thee

Author: Bernard of Clairvaux; Edward Caswell Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #284a (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the very thought of Thee With sweetness fills my breast; But sweeter far Thy face to see, And in Thy presence rest. 2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame, Nor can the mem'ry find A sweeter sound than Thy blest Name, O Savior of mankind! 3 O hope of ev'ry contrite heart, O Joy of all the meek! To those who fall, how kind Thou art, How good to those who seek! 4 But what to those who find? ah, this Nor tongue nor pen can show. The Love of Jesus, what it is, None but His loved ones know. 5 Jesus, our only Joy be Thou! As Thou our Prize wilt be: Jesus, be Thou our Glory now, And through eternity!

When, O dear Jesus, when shall I

Author: John Cennick Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #307 (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 When, O dear Jesus, when shall I Behold Thee all serene; Blest in perpetual holy day, Without a veil between! 2 Assist me, while I wander here, Amidst a world of cares; Incline my heart to pray in love, And then accept my prayers. 3 Release my soul from every chain, No more hell's captive led; And pardon Thy repenting child, For whom the Savior bled. 4 Spare me, O God, O spare the soul, That gives it self to Thee: Take all that I possess below, And give Thyself to me. 5 Thy Spirit, O my Father, give, To be my Guide and Friend, To light my way to ceaseless joys, To rest without an end.

How oft the day of God returns

Author: Simon Brown Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #308b (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 How oft the day of God returns To shed its quick'ning beams; And yet how slow devotion burns, How languid are its flames. 2 Accept our faint attempts to love; Our sins, O Lord, forgive; We would be like Thy saints above, And praise Thee while we live. 3 Increase, O Lord, our faith and hope, And fit us to ascend Where the assembly ne'er breaks up, Thy worship ne'er shall end; 4 When we shall with the ransomed throng, The Savior's praise proclaim, And give in an eternal song All glory to His Name.

At Cana, Lord, Thou didst appear

Author: John Berridge Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #341 (1908) Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal Lyrics: 1 At Cana, Lord, Thou didst appear To grace a marriage feast; We ask Thee likewise to be here, And be a wedding guest. 2 Upon the wedded pair look down, Who now have plighted hands; Their union with Thy favor crown, And bless their nuptial bands. 3 With gifts of grace their hearts endow, Of all rich dowries best! Their substance bless, and peace bestow, To sweeten all the rest. 4 In purest love their souls unite, That they, with Christian care, May make domestic burdens light, By taking mutual share. 5 True helpers may they prove indeed, In prayer and faith and hope; And see with joy a godly seed To build their household up. 6 On ev'ry soul assembled here, O make Thy face to shine; Thy goodness more our hearts can cheer Than richest food or wine.
