Approach, my soul, the mercy seat
Author: John Newton (1725-1807) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 612 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat
where Jesus answers prayer;
there humbly fall before his feet,
for none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea;
with this I venture nigh:
thou callest burdened souls to thee,
and such, O Lord, am I.
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
by Satan sorely pressed,
by war without, and fears within,
I come to thee for rest.
4 Be thou my shield and hiding place,
that, sheltered near thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
and tell him thou hast died.
5 O wondrous love! to bleed and die,
to bear the cross and shame,
that guilty sinners, such as I,
might plead thy gracious name! Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Devotion; Jesus cross Scripture: Hebrews 4:16 Used With Tune: STRACATHRO

O Lord, My God, Most Earnestly
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my God, most earnestly
My heart would seek Thy face,
Within Thy holy house once more
To see Thy glorious grace.
2 Apart from Thee I long and thirst,
And nought can satisfy;
I wander in a desert land
Where all the streams are dry.
3 The loving kindness of my God
Is more than life to me;
So I will bless Thee while I live
And lift my prayer to Thee.
4 In Thee my soul is satisfied,
My darkness turns to light,
And joyful meditations fill
The watches of the night.
5 My Saviour, 'neath Thy sheltering wings
My soul delights to dwell;
Still closer to Thy side I press,
For near Thee all is well.

All as God Wills
Author: John G. Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 57 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 First Line: All as God wills, who wisely heeds Lyrics: 1. All as God wills, who wisely heeds
To give or to withhold,
And knoweth more of all my needs,
Than all my prayers have told.
2. Enough that blessings undeserved
Have marked my erring track;
That, wheresoe’er my feet have swerved,
His chastening turned me back.
3. That more and more a providence
Of love is understood,
Making the springs of time and sense
Sweet with eternal good.
4. That death seems but a covered way
Which opens into light,
Wherein no blinded child can stray
Beyond the Father’s sight.
5. And so the shadows fall apart.
And so the west winds play;
And all the windows of my heart
I open to the day. Used With Tune: STRACATHRO Text Sources: From his poem "My Psalm", in The Panorama, and Other Poems, 1856.

I waited for the Lord my God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 64 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 I waited for the Lord my God,
and patiently did bear;
at length to me he did incline
my voice and cry to hear.
2 He took me from a fearful pit,
and from the miry clay,
and on a rock he set my feet,
establishing my way.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
our God to magnify:
many shall see it, and shall fear,
and on the Lord rely.
4 To do thy will I take delight,
O thou my God that art;
yea, that most holy law of thine
I have within my heart.
5 In thee let all be glad, and joy,
who seeking thee abide;
who thy salvation love, say still,
the Lord be magnified. Scripture: Hebrews 10:7-10 Used With Tune: STRACATHRO Text Sources: Scottish Psalter, 1650
