O that the Lord would guide my ways
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #89 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O that the Lord would guide my ways,
To keep His statutes still!
O that my God would grant me grace
To know and do His will!
2 Order my footsteps by Thy Word,
And make my heart sincere;
Let sin have no dominion, Lord,
But keep my conscience clear.
3 Assist my soul, too apt to stray,
A stricter watch to keep;
And should I e'er forget Thy way,
Restore Thy wandering sheep.
4 Make me to walk in Thy commands;
'Tis a delightful road;
Nor let my head, or heart, or hands,
Offend against my God. Topics: Guidance, prayed for; Holiness; Watchfulness Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON

How precious is the Book divine
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #90 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How precious is the Book divine,
By inspiration given!
Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine,
To guide our souls to heaven.
2 It sweetly cheers our drooping hearts
In this dark vale of tears:
Life, light, and joy, it still imparts,
And quells our rising fears.
3 This lamp, through all the tedious night
Of life, shall guide our way,
Till we behold the clearer light
Of an eternal day. Topics: Word of God; Word of God Precious Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON

My God, accept my heart this day
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #91 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My God, accept my heart this day,
And make it always Thine,
That I from Thee no more may stray,
No more from Thee decline.
2 Before the cross of Him who died,
Behold I prostrate fall;
Let every sin be crucified,
And Christ be all in all.
3 Anoint me with Thy heavenly grace,
Adopt me for Thine own,
That I may see Thy glorious face,
And worship at Thy throne.
4 May the dear blood once shed for me,
My blest atonement prove,
That I from first to last may be
The purchase of Thy love.
5 Let every thought, and work, and word,
To Thee be ever given;
Then life shall be Thy service, Lord,
And death the gate of heaven. Topics: Adoption; Consecration; Holiness Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON

O For A Faith That Will Not Shrink
Author: W. H. Bathurst Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #127 (1930) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink
Tho' pressed by ev'ry foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe!
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chast'ning rod,
But, in the hour of grief and pain,
Will lean upon its God;
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without;
That, when in danger, knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt;
4 That bears, unmoved, the world’s dread frown,
Nor heeds its scornful smile;
That seas of trouble cannot drown,
Nor Satan’s arts beguile;
5 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life’s last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heav'nly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
6 Lord, give us such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
We’ll taste, e’en here, the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON

I love to steal awhile away
Author: Phoebe H. Brown Hymnal: Church Book #534 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 I love to steal awhile away
From every cumbering care,
And spend the hours of setting day
In humble, grateful prayer.
2 I love in solitude to shed
The penitential tear,
And all His promises to plead
Where none but God can hear.
3 I love to think on mercies past,
And future good implore,
And all my cares and sorrows cast
On Him whom I adore.
4 I love by faith to take a view
Of brighter scenes in heaven;
The prospect doth my strength renew,
While here by tempests driven.
5 Thus when life's toilsome day is o'er,
May its departing ray
Be calm as this impressive hour,
And lead to endless day. Topics: Private Devotion Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON
