Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-88 Hymnal: ELH1996 #209 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high. Hide me, O my Savior, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide. Oh, receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee. Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find. Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name; I am all unrighteousness, False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin. Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity.

Savior, When in Dust to Thee

Author: R. Grant, 1779-1838 Hymnal: ELH1996 #296 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH Lyrics: 1 Savior, when in dust to Thee Low we bow th'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 days of sore distress In the savage wilderness, By the dread, mysterious hour Of th'insulting tempter's pow'r, Turn, O turn, a fav'ring eye; Hear our solemn litany! 3 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! 4 By Thy deep expiring groan, By the sad sepulchral stone, By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God, O from earth to heav'n restored, Mighty, reascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry; Hear our solemn litany!

Lord Jesus Christ, with Us Abide

Author: N. Selnecker, 1532-92 Hymnal: ELH1996 #511 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: ACH BLEIB BEI UNS Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide, For round us falls the eventide; Nor let Thy Word, that heav'nly light, For us be ever veiled in night. 2 In these last days of sore distress Grant us, dear Lord, true steadfastness That pure we keep, till life is spent, Thy holy Word and Sacrament. 3 Lord Jesus, help, Thy Church uphold, For we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold. O prosper well Thy Word of grace And spread its truth in ev'ry place! 4 O keep us in Thy Word, we pray; The guile and rage of Satan stay! O may Thy mercy never cease! Give concord, patience, courage, peace. 5 O God, how sin's dread works abound! Throughout the earth no rest is found, And falsehood's spirit wide has spread, And error boldly rears its head. 6 And ever is there something new Devised to change Thy doctrine true; Lord Jesus! as Thou still dost reign, Those vain presumptuous minds restrain; 7 And as the cause and glory, Lord, Are Thine, not ours, to us afford Thy help and strength and constancy. And keep us ever true to Thee. 8 Thy Word shall fortify us hence, It is Thy Church's sure defense; O let in its pow'r confide, That we may seek no other guide. 9 O grant that in Thy holy Word We here may live and die, dear Lord; And when our journey endeth here, Receive us into glory there.

May not His voice appal us While slumber binds our breasts! May all our lamps be burning And oil be found in store That we, with Him returning, May open find the door! 2 There shall we see delighted Our dear Redeemer's face, Who leads our souls benighted To glory by His grace. The patriarchs shall meet us, The prophets' holy band, Apostles, martyrs, greet us In that celestial land. 3 They will not blush to own us As brothers, sisters dear; Love ever will be shown us When we with them appear. We all shall come before Him Who for us man became, As Lord and God adore Him, And ever bless His name. 4 Our Father, rich in blessing, Will give us crowns of gold And, to His bosom pressing, Impart a bliss untold, Will welcome with embraces Of never-ending love, And deck us with His graces In blissful realms above. 5 In yonder home shall never Be silent music's voice; With hearts and lips forever We shall in God rejoice. The angels shall adore Him, All saints shall sing His praise And bring with joy before Him Their sweetest heav'nly lays. 6 In mansions fair and spacious Will God the feast prepare And, ever kind and gracious, Bid us its riches share. There bliss that knows no measure From springs of love shall flow, And never-changing pleasure His bounty will bestow. 7 Thus God shall from all evil Forever make us free, From sin and from the devil, From all adversity, From sickness, pain, and sadness, From troubles, cares, and fears, And grant us heav'nly gladness And wipe away our tears.
