Jesus, I live to Thee

Author: Rev. Henry Harbaugh Hymnal: The Hymnal #246b (1950) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Life in Christ Dedication and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I live to Thee, The Loveliest and Best; My life in Thee, Thy life in me, In Thy blest love I rest. 2 Jesus, I die to Thee, Whenever death shall come; To die in Thee is life to me In my eternal home. 3 Whether to live or die, I know not which is best; To live in Thee is bliss to me, To die is endless rest. 4 Living or dying, Lord, I ask but to be Thine; My life in Thee, Thy life in me, Makes heaven forever mine.

Make me a captive, Lord

Author: Rev. George Matheson (1842-1906) Hymnal: The Hymnal #247a (1950) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: The Life in Christ Dedication and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, And then I shall be free; Force me to render up my sword, And I shall conqueror be. I sink in life's alarms When by myself I stand; Imprison me within Thine arms, And strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor Until it master find; It has no spring of action sure— It varies with the wind. It cannot freely move Till Thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with Thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign. 3 My power is faint and low Till I have learned to serve; It wants the needed fire to glow, It wants the breeze to nerve; It cannot drive the world Until itself be driven; Its flag can only be unfurled When Thou shalt breathe from heaven. 4 My will is not my own Till Thou hast made it Thine; If it would reach a monarch's throne, It must its crown resign; It only stands unbent Amid the clashing strife, When on Thy bosom it has leant And found in Thee its life. Amen. Tune Title: LLANLLYFNI

Alas! and did my Saviour bleed

Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Hymnal #249 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Life in Christ Dedication and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed, And did my Sovereign die! Would He devote that sacred head For sinners such as I! 2 Was it for sins that I have done He suffered on the tree? Amazing pity! Grace unknown! And love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When He, the mighty Maker, died For man the creature's sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face While His dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt mine eyes to tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe; Here, Lord, I give myself away; 'Tis all that I can do. Amen. Tune Title: MARTYRDOM

By Thy love constraining, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are Thine. 3 Fierce may be the conflict, Strong may be the foe, But the King's own army None can overthrow: Round His standard ranging, Victory is secure; For His truth unchanging Makes the triumph sure.
