Commit thou all thy griefs

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #247 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all thy griefs And ways into His hands, To His sure truth and tender care, Who earth and heaven commands, Who points the clouds their course, Whom winds and seas obey; He shall direct thy wandering feet, He shall prepare thy way. 2 Thou on the Lord rely, So safe shalt thou go on; Fix on His work thy steadfast eye, So shall thy work be done. No profit canst thou gain By self-consuming care; To Him commend thy cause; His ear Attends the softest prayer. 3 Thy everlasting truth, Father, Thy ceaseless love, Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows What best for each will prove; And whatsoe'er Thou will'st, Thou dost, O King of kings What Thy unerring wisdom chose, Thy power to being brings. 4 Thou everywhere hast sway, And all things serve Thy might; Thy every act pure blessing is, Thy path unsullied light. When Thou arisest, Lord, What shall Thy work withstand? When all Thy children want Thou giv’st, Who, who shall stay Thy hand? 5 Give to the winds thy fears; Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears, God shall lift up thy head. Through waves and clouds and storms He gently clears thy way; Wait thou His time, so shall this night Soon end in joyous day. 6 Still heavy is thy heart? Still sink thy spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, And every care be gone. What though thou rulest not? Yet heaven and earth and hell Proclaim, God sitteth on the throne And ruleth all things well. 7 Leave to His sovereign sway To choose and to command, So shalt thou wondering own, His way How wise, how strong His hand. Far, far above thy thought His counsel shall appear, When fully He the work hath wrought That caused thy needless fear. 8 Thou seest our weakness, Lord! Our hearts are known to Thee: O lift Thou up the sinking hand, Confirm the feeble knee! Let us in life, in death, Thy steadfast truth declare, And publish with our latest breath Thy love and guardian care.

O where shall rest be found

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Church Book #96 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Church Book Lyrics: 1 O where shall rest be found, Rest for the weary soul? 'Twere vain the ocean's depths to sound, Or pierce to either pole. The world can never give The bliss for which we sigh; 'Tis not the whole of life to live, Nor all of death to die. 2 Beyond this vale of tears There is a Life above, Unmeasured by the flight of years; And all that Life is love. There is a Death, whose pang Outlasts the fleeting breath; O what eternal horrors hang Around the second death! 3 Lord God of truth and grace, Teach us that Death to shun, Lest we be banished from Thy face, And evermore undone! Here would we end our quest; Alone are found in Thee The Life of perfect love,--the Rest Of immortality.

I was a wandering sheep

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Church Book #107 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Church Book Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold; I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controlled. I was a wayward child, I did not love my home; I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; They followed me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild: They found me nigh to death, Famished, and faint, and lone; They bound me with the bands of love, They saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is; 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that washed me in His Blood, 'Twas He that made me whole. 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep; 'Twas He that brought me to the fold, 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 I was a wandering sheep, I would not be controlled; But now I love my Shepherd's voice, I love, I love the fold! I was a wayward child, I once preferred to roam; But now I love my Father's voice, I love, I love His home.

Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #577 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Church Book Lyrics: 1 We know, by faith we know, If this vile house of clay This tabernacle, sink below In ruinous decay; We have a House above, Not made with mortal hands; And firm as our Redeemer's Love That heavenly fabvric stands. 2 It stand securely high, Indissolubly sure; Our glorious mansion in the sky Shall evermore endure. O may we enter there, To perfect heaven restored! O may we be caught up to share The triumph of our Lord! 3 O let us put on Thee In perfect holiness, And rise prepared Thy face to see, Thy bright, unclouded face!
