My Dear Redeemer and My Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 573 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:1 Lyrics: 1 My dear Redeemer and my Lord,
I read my duty in thy word,
but in thy life the law appears
drawn out in living characters.
2 Such was thy truth, and such thy zeal,
such def'rence to thy Father's will,
such love, and meekness so divine,
I would transcribe and make them mine.
3 Cold mountains and the midnight air
witnessed the fervor of thy prayer;
the desert thy temptations knew,
thy conflict, and thy vict'ry too.
4 Be thou my pattern; make me bear
More of thy gracious image here;
then God, the Judge, shall own my name
amongst the foll'wers of the Lamb.

At even, ere the sun was set
Author: Henry Twells, 1823-1900 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 312 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:1-13 Lyrics: 1 At even, ere the sun was set,
the sick, O Lord, around thee lay;
O in what divers pains they met!
O with what joy they went away!
2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we
oppressed with various ills draw near;
what if thy form we cannot see?
we know and feel that thou art here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel;
for some are sick, and some are sad,
and some have never loved thee well,
and some have lost the love they had.
4 And some have found the world is vain,
yet from the world they break not free;
and some have friends who give them pain,
yet have not sought a friend in thee.
5 And none, O Lord, has perfect rest,
for none is wholly free from sin;
and they who fain would serve thee best
are conscious most of wrong within.
6 O Christ, thou hast been human too,
thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried;
thy kind but searching glance can view
the very wounds that shame would hide.
7 Thy touch has still its ancient pow'r;
no word from thee can fruitless fall:
Hear, in this solemn evening hour,
and in thy mercy heal us all. Topics: Evening; Healing; Suffering and Sorrow Used With Tune: ANGELUS

Tell Me the Story of Jesus
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Meter: 8.7.8.7 D with refrain Appears in 222 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:2 Lyrics: 1 Tell me the story of Jesus,
write on my heart every word;
tell me the story most precious,
sweetest that ever was heard.
Tell how the angels in chorus
sang as they welcomed his birth,
“Glory to God in the highest!
Peace and good tidings to earth.”
[Refrain:]
Tell me the story of Jesus,
write on my heart every word;
tell me the story most precious,
sweetest that ever was heard.
2 Fasting alone in the desert,
tell of the days that are past;
how for our sins He was tempted,
yet was triumphant at last.
Tell of the years of his labor,
tell of the sorrow he bore,
he was despised and afflicted,
homeless, rejected and poor. (Refrain)
3 Tell of the cross where they nailed him,
writhing in anguish and pain;
tell of the grave where they laid him,
tell how He liveth again.
Love in that story so tender
clearer than ever I see;
stay, let me weep while you whisper,
"Love paid the ransom for me." (Refrain)

Forty Days and Forty Nights
Author: George Hunt Smyttan Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 157 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Forty days and forty nights
You were fasting in the wild;
Forty days and forty nights
Tempted, and yet undefiled.
2 Shall not we Your sorrow share
And from worldly joys abstain,
Fasting with unceasing prayer,
Strong with You to suffer pain?
3 Then if Satan on us press,
Flesh or spirit to assail,
Victor in the wilderness,
Grant we may not faint nor fail!
4 So shall we have peace divine:
Holier gladness ours shall be;
Round us, too, shall angels shine,
Such as served You faithfully.
5 Keep, O keep us, Savior dear,
Ever constant by Your side;
That with You we may appear
At the eternal Eastertide.

O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High
Author: Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471); Benjamin Webb; J. M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 139 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:1-13 Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high,
how passing thought and fantasy,
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals' sake!
2 For us baptized, for us he bore
his holy fast and hungered sore;
for us temptation sharp he knew,
for us the tempter overthrew.
3 For us he prayed; for us he taught;
for us his daily works he wrought:
by words and signs and actions thus
still seeking not himself, but us.
4 For us to evil pow'r betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death,
for us gave up his dying breath.
5 For us he rose from death again;
for us he went on high to reign;
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to comfort, and to cheer.
6 All glory to our Lord and God
for love so deep, so high, so broad --
the Trinity, whom we adore
forever and forevermore.
