What Shall I Render to My God? (Wesley)

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals First Line: What shall I render to my God Lyrics: 1. What shall I render to my God For all His mercy’s store? I’ll take the gifts He hath bestowed, And humbly ask for more. 2. The sacred cup of saving grace I will with thanks receive, And all His promises embrace, And to His glory live. 3. My vows I will to His great name Before His people pay, And all I have, and all I am, Upon His altar lay. 4. Thy lawful servant, Lord, I owe To Thee whate’er is mine, Born in Thy family below, And by redemption thine. 5. Thy hands created me, Thy hands From sin have set me free, The mercy that hath loosed my bands Hath bound me fast to Thee. 6. The God of all redeeming grace My God I will proclaim, Offer the sacrifice of praise, And call upon His name. 7. Praise Him, ye saints, the God of love, Who hath my sins forgiven, Till, gathered to the church above, We sing the songs of Heaven. Used With Tune: GERONTIUS Text Sources: Cento from manuscript

The Word Of Truth's A Spacious Field

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The word of truth’s a spacious field Lyrics: 1 The word of truth’s a spacious field, Adorned with fragrant flowers; A golden mine, where we may search, And make the treasure ours. 2 Here streams of milk and honey flow, Diwinely rich and free; Here Christ unveils His lovely face, And bids us come and see. 3 Here’s living water, living bread, And more than angels’ fare; Millions of souls have been supplied, And yet there’s much to spare. 4 Here, as upon the tree of life, Fruits grow of various kind; And as in famed Bethesda’s pool, We help and healing find. 5 Come then, my soul, these truths attend, With humble hope and fear; Here search for Christ, the pearl of price, And thou shalt find Him here. 6 Then widely spread His worth and fame, Let heathens hear His voice; Oh send His word to every shore, And bid the earth rejoice.

Now I'm Convinced the Lord Is Kind

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now I’m convinced the Lord is kind To men of heart sincere; Yet once my foolish thoughts repined, And bordered on despair. 2. I grieved to see the wicked thrive, And spoke with angry breath, “How pleasant and profane they live! How peaceful is their death! 3. “With well-fed flesh and haughty eyes, They lay their fears to sleep; Against the heav’ns their slanders rise, While saints in silence weep. 4. In vain I lift my hands to pray, And cleanse my heart in vain; For I am chastened all the day, The night renews my pain. 5. Yet while my tongue indulged complaints, I felt my heart reprove— Sure I shall thus offend thy saints, And grieve the men I love. 6. But still I found my doubts too hard, The conflict too severe, Till I retired to search Thy Word, And learn Thy secrets there. 7. There, as in some prophetic glass, I saw the sinner’s feet High mounted on a slippery place, Beside a fiery pit. 8. I heard the wretch profanely boast, Till at Thy frown he fell; His honors in a dream were lost, And he awakes in hell. 9. Lord, what an envious fool I was! How like a thoughtless beast! Thus to suspect Thy promised grace, And think the wicked blessed. 10. Thus I was kept from full despair, Upheld by power unknown; That blessèd hand that broke the snare Shall guide me to Thy throne.

Commissioned By The Great I Am

Author: William Sanders; Hugh Bourne Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Commissioned by the great I AM I leave my friends and home, To spread the triumphs of His name, O’er desert wastes I roam. 2 While the whole counsel of the Lord, I shun not to declare, May sinners fall before the Word, And lift their hearts in prayer. 3 My soul, at times, is much cast down, And pressed with pain and toil, But I’ll not dread the sinner’s frown, Nor will I court their smile. 4 Though grief and sorrow be my lot, I shortly shall be free; And whether I’m reproached or not, May God remember me. 5 I soon shall quit this cumbrous clay, And fly to Jesus’ breast; Angels will bear my soul away, To everlasting rest.
