O Jesus, I have promised
Author: John Ernest Bode, 1816-1874 Hymnal: EH1982 #655 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve thee to the end:
be thou for ever near me,
my Master and my friend;
I shall not fear the battle
if thou art by my side,
nor wander from the pathway,
if thou wilt be my guide.
2 O let me hear thee speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will;
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
thou guardian of my soul.
3 O Jesus, thou hast promised
to all who follow thee,
that where thou art in glory
there shall thy servant be;
and, Jesus I have promised
to serve thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
my Master and my friend.

Blest are the pure in heart
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866; William John Hall, 1793-1861 Hymnal: EH1982 #656 (1985) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Blest are the pure in heart,
for they shall see our God;
the secret of the Lord is theirs,
their soul is Christ's abode.
2 The Lord, who left the heavens
our life and peace to bring,
to dwell in lowliness with us,
our pattern and our King;
3 he to the lowly soul
will still himself impart
and for his dwelling and his throne
will choose the pure in heart.
4 Lord, we thy presence seek;
may ours this blessing be;
give us a pure and lowly heart,
a temple fit for thee. Topics: The Christian Life Languages: English Tune Title: FRANCONIA
Blest are the pure in heart
Love divine, all loves excelling
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: EH1982 #657 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heaven, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
2 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be alway blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
3 Finish then thy new creation;
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee:
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Love divine, all loves excelling
As longs the deer for cooling streams
Hymnal: EH1982 #658 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 As longs the deer for cooling streams
in parched and barren ways,
so longs my soul, O God, for thee
and thy refreshing grace.
2 For thee, my God, the living God,
my thirsty soul doth pine:
O when shall I behold thy face,
thou Majesty divine?
3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Hope still, and thou shalt sing
the praise of him who is thy God,
thy health's eternal spring.
4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God whom we adore,
be glory, as it was, is now,
and shall be evermore. Topics: The Christian Life Scripture: Psalm 42:1-7 Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYRDOM

O Master, let me walk with thee
Author: Washington Gladden, 1836-1918 Hymnal: EH1982 #659 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Master, let me walk with thee
in lowly paths of service free;
tell me thy secret; help me bear
the strain of toil, the fret of care.
2 Help me the slow of heart to move
by some clear, winning word of love;
teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.
3 Teach me thy patience; still with thee
in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong,
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
far down the future's broadening way,
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live. Topics: The Christian Life Languages: English Tune Title: DE TAR

They cast their nets in Galilee
Author: William Alexander Percy, 1885-1942 Hymnal: EH1982 #661 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 They cast their nets in Galilee
just off the hills of brown;
such happy, simple fisher-folk,
before the Lord came down.
2 Contented, peaceful fishermen,
before they ever knew
the peace of God that filled their hearts
brimful, and broke them too.
3 Young John who trimmed the flapping sail,
homeless, in Patmos died.
Peter, who hauled the teeming net,
head-down was crucified.
4 The peace of God, it is no peace,
but strife closed in the sod.
Yet let us pray for but one thing-
the marvelous peace of God. Topics: The Christian Life Languages: English Tune Title: GEORGETOWN

Abide with me: fast falls the eventide
Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793-1847 Hymnal: EH1982 #662 (1985) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
when other helpers fail and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 I need thy presence every passing hour;
what but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
3 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
4 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

The Lord my God my shepherd is
Author: F. Bland Tucker, 1895-1984 Hymnal: EH1982 #663 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Life Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND
The Lord my God my shepherd is
My Shepherd will supply my need
Author: Isaac Watts, 1675-1748 Hymnal: EH1982 #664 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 My Shepherd will supply my need,
Jehovah is His Name;
in pastures fresh he makes me feed
beside the living stream.
He brings my wandering spirit back
when I forsake his ways,
and leads me, for his mercy's sake,
in paths of truth and grace.
2 When I walk through the shades of death,
thy presence is my stay;
one word of thy supporting breath
drives all my fears away.
Thy hand, in sight of all my foes,
doth still my table spread;
my cup with blessings overflows,
thy oil anoints my head.
3 The sure provisions of my God
attend me all my days;
oh, may thy house be mine abode
and all my work be praise.
There would I find a settled rest,
while others go and come;
no more a stranger or a guest,
but like a child at home. Topics: The Christian Life Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: RESIGNATION
My Shepherd will supply my need
