his voice, who ruled them while he dwelt below.

from his own fullness all he takes away.

all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last. Topics: Funerals, Commemoration, Remembrance and All Souls Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

Give Me Jesus
Make me a captive, Lord
Author: George Matheson (1842-1906) Appears in 120 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:35 Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord,
and then I shall be free;
force me to render up my sword,
and I shall conqueror be.
I sink in life's alarms
when by myself I stand;
imprison me within thine arms,
and strong shall be my hand.
2 My heart is weak and poor
until it master find;
it has no spring of action sure,
it varies with the wind.
It cannot freely move
till thou hast wrought its chain;
enslave it with thy matchless love,
and deathless it shall reign.
3 My power is faint and low
till I have learned to serve;
it lacks the needed fire to glow,
it lacks the breeze to nerve;
it cannot drive the world,
until itself be driven;
its flag can only be unfurled
when thou shalt breathe from heaven.
4 My will is not my own
till thou hast made it thine;
if it would reach a monarch's throne
it must its crown resign;
it only stands unbent,
amid the clashing strife,
when on thy bosom it has leant
and found in thee its life. Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Discipleship Used With Tune: LEOMINSTER

Didst thou, Lord Jesus, suffer shame
Author: Kirkham Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 94 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:34 Lyrics: 1 Didst thou, Lord Jesus, suffer shame,
And bear the cross for me?
And shall I fear to own thy name,
Or thy disciple be?
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should dread
To suffer shame or loss;
Oh, let me in thy footsteps tread,
And glory in thy cross. Topics: The Christian Life Honor and Influence; Glorying in the Cross
Didst thou, Lord Jesus, suffer shame
What is the thing of greatest price
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 87 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:36 Lyrics: 1 What is the thing of greatest price,
The whole creation round?
That which was lost in Paradise,
That which in Christ is found:
2 The soul of man--Jehovah's breath
That keeps two worlds at strife;
Hell moves beneath to work its death,
Heaven stoops to give it life.
3 God, to redeem it, did not spare
His well beloved Son;
Jesus, to save it, deign'd to bear
The sins of all in one.
4 And is this treasure borne below
In earthly vessels frail!
Can none its utmost value know,
Till flesh and spirit fail?
5 Then let us gather round the cross,
That knowledge to obtain;
Not by the soul's eternal loss,
But everlasting gain. Topics: The soul; The Works of God
What is the thing of greatest price
