One Thing needful
Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 203 hymnals Scripture: Haggai 1:7 First Line: Why will ye waste on trifling cares Lyrics: 1 Why will ye waste on trifling cares
That life which God's compassion spares?
While, in the various range of thought,
The one thing needful is forgot?
2 Shall God invite you from above?
Shall Jesus urge his dying love?
Shall troubled conscience give you pain?
And all these please unite in vain?
3 Not so your eyes will always view
Those objects which you now pursue;
Not so will heaven and hell appear,
When death's decisive hour is near.
4 Almighty God! thy grace impart;
Fix deep conviction on each heart:
Nor let us waste on trifling cares
That life which thy compassion spares. Topics: Access to God; Conscience Used With Tune: SEASONS

may see you face to face. Topics: Ash Wednesday; Lent (season); Baptism (general); Images of God Used With Tune: BELLWOODS

Thine the thorn-plaited, mine the righteous crown.
