Do Not I Love Thee, O My Lord?

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1244 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Do not I love Thee, O my Lord? Behold my heart and see; And turn each cursèd idol out, That dares to rival Thee. 2. Do not I love Thee, O my Lord? Then let me nothing love; Dead be my heart to every joy, When Jesus cannot move. 3. Is not Thy name melodious still To mine attentive ear? Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound My Savior’s voice to hear? 4. Hast Thou a lamb in all Thy flock I would disdain to feed? Hast Thou a foe, before whose face I fear Thy cause to plead? 5. Would not mine ardent spirit vie With angels round the throne, To execute Thy sacred will, And make Thy glory known? 6. Would not my heart pour forth its blood In honor of Thy name? And challenge the cold hand of death To damp th’immortal flame? 7. Thou know’st I love Thee, dearest Lord, But O, I long to soar Far from the sphere of mortal joys, And learn to love Thee more! Languages: English Tune Title: HOWARD (Cuthbert)

O Praise and Bless the Lord, My Soul

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5266 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. O praise and bless the Lord, my soul, His wondrous love proclaim; Join heart and voice and all my powers To bless His holy name. 2. O praise and bless the Lord, my soul, And ever thankful be; Forget not all the benefits He has bestowed on thee. 3. He freely pardons all thy sins, And He is strong to save; He heals thy sickness, soothes thy pain, And ransoms from the grave. 4. He crowns thee with His grace and love, And, with His strength endued, Thou mountest up on eagle’s wings, Thy joyous youth renewed. 5. The Lord will judge in righteousness For all that are oppressed; To all His saints His gracious acts And ways are manifest. 6. The Lord is ever merciful, And unto anger slow; His loving-kindness and His grace In rich abundance flow. 7. He will not chide forevermore, He turns His wrath away; He has not strictly marked our sins, Our evil to repay. 8. As Heaven is high above the earth, So great His mercy proves; As far from us as east and west He all our sins removes. Languages: English Tune Title: HOWARD (Cuthbert)
