Thy Presence, Lord, Hath Me Supplied

Appears in 21 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 Thy presence, Lord, hath me supplied, Thou my right hand support dost give; Thou first shalt with Thy counsel guide, And then to glory me receive. 2 Whom then in heav’n, but Thee alone, Have I, whose favor I require? Throughout the spacious earth there’s none, Compar’d with Thee, that I desire. 3 My trembling flesh and aching heart May often fail to succor me; But God shall inward strength impart, And my eternal portion be.

Author: Dr. O. W. Holmes Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 427 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Lord of all being; throned afar, Thy glory flames from sun and star; Centre and soul of every sphere, Yet to each loving heart now near! 2 Sun of our life, Thy quickening ray Sheds on our path the glow of day; Star of our hope, Thy softened light Cheers the long watches of the night. 3 Our midnight is Thy smile withdrawn; Our noontide is Thy gracious dawn; Our rainbow arch, Thy mercy's sign; All, save the clouds of sin, are Thine. 4 Lord of all life, below, above, Whose light is truth, Whose warmth is love, Before Thy ever-blazing throne We ask no lustre of our own. 5 Grant us Thy truth to make us free, And kindling hearts that burn for Thee, Till all Thy living altars claim One holy light, one heavenly flame. Amen. Topics: General; Processional Used With Tune: [Lord of all being; throned afar]

My God,Now I From Sleep Awake

Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 25 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: My God, I now from sleep awake Lyrics: 1 My God, I now from sleep awake, The sole possession of me take; From midnight terrors me secure, And guard my heart from thoughts impure. 2 Blest angels, while we silent lie, Your hallelujahs sing on high; You joyful hymn the ever-blest, Before the throne, and never rest. 3 I with your choir celestial join, In offering up a hymn divine; With you in Heav’n I hope to dwell, And bid the night and world farewell. 4 My soul, when I shake off this dust, Lord, in Thy arms I will entrust; O make me Thy peculiar care, Some mansion for my soul prepare. 5 Give me a place at Thy saints’ feet, Or some fall’n angel’s vacant seat; I’ll strive to sing as loud as they, Who sit above in brighter day. 6 O may I always ready stand, With my lamp burning in my hand; May I in sight of Heav’n rejoice, Whene’er I hear the Bridegroom’s voice. 7 All praise to Thee, in light arrayed, Who light Thy dwelling place hast made: A boundless ocean of bright beams From Thy all glorious Godhead streams. 8 Blest Jesus, Thou on Heav’n intent, Whole nights hast in devotion spent; But I, frail creature, soon am tired, And all my zeal is soon expired. 9 Shine on me, Lord, new life impart, Fresh ardors kindle in my heart; One ray of Thy all quickening light Dispels the sloth and clouds of night. 10 Lord, lest the tempter me surprise, Watch over Thine own sacrifice; All loose, all idle thoughts cast out, And make my very dreams devout. 11 Praise God, from all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heav’nly host, Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
