Shall I, for Fear of Feeble Man
Appears in 106 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Shall I, for fear of feeble man.
The Spirit's course in me restrain?
Or undismayed in deed and word
Be a true witness for the Lord?
Awed by a mortal's frown, shall I
Conceal the word of God most high?
How then before Thee shall I dare
To stand, or how Thine anger bear?
2. Shall I, to soothe th' unholy throng,
Soften Thy truths and smooth my tongue,
To gain earth's gilded toys or flee
The cross, my God, endured by Thee?
What, then, is he whose scorn I dread,
Whose wrath or hate makes me afraid?
A man - an heir of death - a slave
To sin - a bubble on the wave.
3. Yea, let men rage, since Thou wilt spread
Thy shadowy wings around my head,
Since in all pain, Thy tender love.
Will still my sure refreshment prove.
Savior of men, Thy searching eye
Doth all my inmost thoughts descry;
Doth aught on earth my wishes raise,
The world's vain pleasures, or its praise?
4. The love of Christ doth me constrain
To seek the wand'ring souls of men;
With cries, entreaties, tears to save,
To snatch them from the gaping grave.
For this let men revile my name,
No cross I shun, I fear no shame-
All hail reproach! and welcome pain!
Thy terrors only Lord, restrain.
5. My life, my blood, I here present,
If for Thy truth they may be spent;
Fulfil Thy sov'reign counsel, Lord;
Thy will be done, Thy name adored
Give of Thy strength, O God of pow'r
Then let winds blow, or thunders roar,
Thy faithful witness will I be:
'Tis fixed- I can do all through Thee. Used With Tune: [Shall I, for fear of feeble man] Text Sources: Wesley's Collection

O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace
Author: Ambrose, d.297; John Chandler Appears in 85 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace,
Thou Brightness of Thy Father's face,
Thou Fountain of eternal light,
Whose beams disperse the shades of night!
2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love,
Send down Thy radiance from above;
And to our inmost hearts convey
The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray.
3 May He our actions deign to bless,
And loose the bonds of wickedness,
From sudden falls our feet defend,
And guide us safely to the end.
4 May faith, deep-rooted in the soul,
The flesh subdue, our minds control;
May guile depart, and discord cease,
And all within be joy and peace.
5 O hallowed thus be every day!
Let meekness be our morning ray,
And faithful love our noonday light,
And hope our sunset, calm and bright.
6 O Christ, with each returning morn,
Thine image to our hearts is borne;
O may we ever clearly see
Our Saviour and our God in Thee!
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Used With Tune: WAREHAM
O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace
Jesus, where'er thy people meet
Author: William Cowper (1731-1800) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 525 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, where'er thy people meet,
there they behold thy mercy-seat;
where'er they seek thee thou art found,
and every place is hallowed ground.
2 For thou, within no walls confined,
inhabitest the humble mind;
such ever bring thee when they come,
and, going, take thee to their home.
3 Dear Shepherd of thy chosen few,
thy former mercies here renew;
here to our waiting hearts proclaim
the sweetness of thy saving name.
4 Here may we prove the power of prayer
to strengthen faith and sweeten care,
to teach our faint desires to rise,
and bring all heaven before our eyes.
5 Lord, we are few, but thou art near;
nor short thine arm, nor deaf thine ear:
O rend the heavens, come quickly down,
and make a thousand hearts thine own! Topics: Church nature of; Jesus Name; Prayer; Proper 12 Year C; Proper 18 Year A; The Fourth Sunday before Lent Year A; The Third Sunday of Lent Year A Scripture: Isaiah 57:15 Used With Tune: WAREHAM
Jesus, where'er thy people meet
Thine, Lord, Is Wisdom, Thine Alone
Author: Ernst Lange; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thine, Lord, is wisdom, Thine alone;
Justice and truth before Thee stand:
Yet, nearer to Thy sacred throne,
Mercy withholds Thy lifted hand.

Each rising morn Thy plenteous grace;
Thy wakened wrath doth slowly move,
Thy willing mercy flies apace.
3. To Thy benign, indulgent care,
Father, this light, this breath, we owe;
And all we have, and all we are,
From Thee, great Source of being, flow.
4. Thrice Holy! Thine the kingdom is,
The power omnipotent is Thine;
And when created nature dies,
Thy never ceasing glories shine. Used With Tune: WAREHAM Text Sources: Neues geistreiches Gesangbuch, by Johann A. Freylinghausen, 1714; translation in Collection of Psalms and Hymns (Charleston, South Carolina: 17
