Beneath The Cross Of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 520 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noon-tide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon the cross of Jesus, Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffer'd there for me. And from my smitten heart with tears, These wonders I confess, The wonder of His glorious love, And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain or loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

Spirit of God within Me

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God within me, Possess my human frame; Fan the dull embers of my heart, Stir up the living flame: Strive till that image Adam lost, New minted and restored, In shining splendor brightly bears The likeness of the Lord. 2 Spirit of truth within me, Possess my thought and mind; Lighten anew the inward eye By Satan rendered blind: Shine on the words that wisdom speaks And grant me pow'r to see The truth made known to all in Christ, And in that truth be free. 3 Spirit of love within me, Possess my hands and heart; Break through the bonds of self concern That seeks to stand apart: Grant me the love that suffers long, That hopes, believes and bears; The love fulfilled in sacrifice, That cares as Jesus cares. 4 Spirit of life within me, Possess this life of mine; Come as the wind of heaven's breath, Come as the fire divine! Spirit of Christ, the living Lord, Reign in this house of clay, Till from its dust with Christ I rise To everlasting day. Topics: Christian Life; Holy Spirit; Love for Others; Pentecost; Truth; Vision Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:22-23 Used With Tune: WILLOW RIVER

Elizabeth Cecilia Clephane

1830 - 1869 Person Name: Elizabeth Cecilia Douglas Clephane Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Author of "Beneath the Cross of Jesus" in The Presbyterian Hymnal Clephane, Elizabeth Cecilia, third daughter of Andrew Clephane, Sheriff of Fife, was born at Edinburgh, June 18, 1830, and died at Bridgend House, near Melrose, Feb. 19, 1869. Her hymns appeared, almost all for the first time, in the Family Treasury, under the general title of Breathings on the Border. In publishing the first of these in the Treasury, the late Rev. W. Arnot, of Edinburgh, then editor, thus introduced them:— "These lines express the experiences, the hopes, and the longings of a young Christian lately released. Written on the very edge of this life, with the better land fully, in the view of faith, they seem to us footsteps printed on the sands of Time, where these sands touch the ocean of Eternity. These footprints of one whom the Good Shepherd led through the wilderness into rest, may, with God's blessing, contribute to comfort and direct succeeding pilgrims." The hymns, together with their dates,are:— 1. Beneath the cross of Jesus. Family Treasury, 1872, p. 398, 2. Mine eyes for ever closed. Family Treasury, 1872, p. 398. 3. Who climbeth up too nigh. Family Treasury, 1872, p. 552. 4. Into His summer garden. Family Treasury, 1873, p. 245. 5. From my dwelling midst the dead. Family Treasury, 1873, p. 365. 6. The day is drawing nearly done. Family Treasury, 1873, p. 389. 7. Life-light waneth to an end. Family Treasury, 1874, p. 595. 8. There were ninety and nine that safely lay. Family Treasury, 1874, p. 595. Of these Nos. 1 and 8 are in common use. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.] --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Small Church Music

Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Editors: Elizabeth C. Clephane Description: The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs. Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted.
