Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Partner, Lover, Friend, fill me with your Spirit's fires; I will learn to be and do all that healing love requires. I will be your hands and feet; I will be your heart and soul. Lead me into love and truth, Broken Bread in us made whole. 2 You are grace and peace to me, Partner through the troubled day; with me on the city street, showing me the faithful way. You are more than liberty, Lover of my life, my heart, Comfort of my deepest soul when my world is torn apart. 3 Like the outcast at the well, Living Water, quench my thirst; those rejected here on earth at your table will be first. Love me into life and health, Friend of all, when friendships end; never leave me, precious Christ, Jesus, Partner, Lover, Friend. Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 Used With Tune: HILDEN

Leader of faithful souls, and Guide

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 94 hymnals Topics: Heaven A City; Heaven A City Lyrics: 1 Leader of faithful souls, and Guide Of all who travel to the sky, Come, and with us, even us, abide, Who would on Thee alone rely; On Thee alone our spirits stay, While held in life's uneven way. 2 Strangers and pilgrims here below, This earth, we know is not our place; But hasten through the vale of woe, And, restless to behold Thy face, Swift to our heavenly country move, Our everlasting home above. 3 We've no abiding city here, But seek a city out of sight; Thither our steady course we steer, Aspiring to the plains of light, Jerusalem, the saints' abode, Whose founder is the living God. 4 Through Thee, who all our sins hast borne, Freely and graciously forgiven, With songs to Zion we return, Contending for our native heaven, That palace of our glorious King, We find it nearer while we sing. 5 Raised by the breath of love divine, We urge our way with strength renewed; The church of the first-born to join, We travel to the mount of God; With joy upon our heads arise, And meet our Captain in the skies. Used With Tune: DURA
