My Faith Looks Up to Thee
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,205 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:8 Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee,
thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
be wholly thine!
2 May thy rich grace impart
strength to my fainting heart,
my zeal inspire;
as thou hast died for me,
O may my love to thee
pure, warm, and changeless be,
a living fire!
3 While life's dark maze I tread
and griefs around me spread,
be thou my guide;
bid darkness turn to day;
wipe sorrow's tears away;
nor let me ever stray
from thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
when death's cold, sullen stream
shall o'er me roll;
blest Savior, then, in love,
fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
a ransomed soul! Topics: Faith; Forgiveness; Funeral; Grace; Guidance; Living and Dying in Christ Used With Tune: OLIVET

I rest on his unchanging grace;
in every high and stormy gale,
my anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

support me in the whelming flood;
when all around my soul gives way,
he then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]

O may I then in him be found,
dressed in his righteousness alone,
faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]

My Inmost Heart Now Raises
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Georg Nigidius, c. 1588 Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.7.6 Appears in 21 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:1 Lyrics: 1 My inmost heart now raises
In this fair morning hour
A song of thankful praises
To Thine almighty pow'r,
O God, upon Thy throne.
To honor and adore Thee,
I bring my praise before Thee
Thro' Christ, Thine only Son.
2 For Thou from me hast warded
All perils of the night;
From ev'ry harm hast guarded
My soul till morning light.
To Thee I humbly cry,
O Savior, have compassion
And pardon my transgression;
Have mercy, Lord most high!
3 And shield me from all evil,
O gracious God, this day,
From sin, and from the devil,
From shame and from dismay,
From fire's consuming breath,
From water's devastation,
From need and consternation,
From evil sudden death.
4 Let not Thine angel leave me
While here on earth I stay
Lest Satan's arts deceive me
And lead my soul astray.
Then keep Thine angel near
At night and each new morrow
Lest soul and body sorrow
And falt'ring cost me dear.
5 God shall do my advising,
Whose might with wisdom blends;
May He bless rest and rising,
My efforts, means, and ends!
To God, forever blest,
Will I with mine confide me,
And willing let Him guide me
As seemeth to Him best.
6 Amen I say, not fearing
That God rejects my prayer;
I doubt not He is hearing
And granting me His care.
Thus I go on my way
And do not look behind me,
But ply the task assigned me;
God's help shall be my stay.
Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Morning Used With Tune: AUS MEINES HERZENS GRUNDE Text Sources: Tr. based on Catherine Winkworth, 1863
