As with Gladness Men of Old
Author: William C. Dix, 1837-1898 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 636 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 8:7 Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
did the guiding star behold,
as with joy they hailed its light,
leading onward, beaming bright,
so, most gracious Lord, may we
evermore be led by thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped,
Savior, to thy lowly bed,
there to bend the knee before
thee, whom heav’n and earth adore,
so may we with willing feet
ever seek thy mercy seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
at thy cradle, rude and bare,
so may we with holy joy,
pure and free from sin’s alloy,
all our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to thee, our heav’nly King.
4 Holy Jesus, ev’ry day
keep us in the narrow way;
and, when earthly things are past,
bring our ransomed souls at last
where they need no star to guide,
where no clouds thy glory hide.
5 In the heav'nly country bright
need they no created light;
thou its light, its joy, its crown,
thou its sun which goes not down.
There forever may we sing
alleluias to our King!

O Lord, I would delight in thee
Author: John Ryland, 1753-1825 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 243 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 8:9 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, I would delight in thee,
and on thy care depend;
to thee in ev'ry trouble flee,
my best, my only friend.
2 When all created streams are dried,
thy fulness is the same:
may I with this be satisfied,
and glory in thy name.
3 No good in creatures can be found
but may be found in thee;
I must have all things and abound,
while God is God to me.
4 He that has made my heav'n secure
will here all good provide;
while Christ is rich can I be poor?
What can I want beside?
5 O Lord, I cast my care on thee;
I triumph and adore;
henceforth my great concern shall be
to love and please thee more. Topics: Protection; Redemption and Salvation Used With Tune: WARWICK

Lord, lead the way the Savior went
Author: W. Crosswell Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 200 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 8:12 Lyrics: 1 Lord, lead the way the Saviour went,
By lane and cell obscure,
And let our treasures still be spent,
Like his, upon the poor.
2 Like him, through scenes of deep distress,
Who bore the world's sad weight,
We, in their gloomy loneliness,
Would see the desolate.
3 For thou hast placed us side by side
In this wide world of ill;
And that thy followers may be tried,
The poor are with us still.
4 Small are the offerings we can make;
Yet thou hast taught us, Lord,
If given for the Saviour's sake,
They lose not their reward.
