Author: William Walsham How Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 683 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ and God Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, thou art standing outside the fast-closed door, in lowly patience waiting to pass the threshold o'er: shame on us, Christian brothers, his name and sign who bear, O shame, thrice shame upon us, to keep him standing there! 2 O Jesus, thou art knocking; and lo, that hand is scarred, and thorns thy brow encircle, and tears thy face have marred: O love that passeth knowledge, so patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, so fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, thou art pleading in accents meek and low, "I died for you, my children, and will ye treat me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow we open now the door; dear Savior, enter, enter, and leave us nevermore. Scripture: Revelation 3:20 Used With Tune: ST. EDITH

Lord, Hear My Prayer, and Let My Cry

Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Communion with God Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry Have ready access unto Thee; When in distress to Thee I fly, O hide not Thou Thy face from me. Attend, O Lord, to my desire, O haste to answer when I pray; For grief consumes my strength like fire, My days as smoke pass swift away. 2 My heart is withered like the grass, And I forget my daily bread; In lonely grief my days I pass And sad my thoughts upon my bed. My foes reproach me all the day, My drink is tears, my bread is grief, For in Thy wrath I pine away, My days are like a fading leaf. 3 But Thou, Jehovah, shalt endure, Thy throne forever is the same; And to all generations sure Shall be Thy great memorial Name. The time for Zion’s help is near, The time appointed in Thy love; O let Thy gracious aid appear, Look Thou in mercy from above. 4 O Lord, regard the prayer of those Who love the walls of Zion well, Whose hearts are heavy for her woes, Who sad amid her ruins dwell. Thy power and glory shall appear, And Zion’s walls shall be restored; Then all the kings of earth shall fear And heathen nations serve the Lord. 5 The Lord, exalted on His throne, Looked down from heaven with pitying eye To still the lowly captive’s moan And save His people doomed to die. All men in Zion shall declare His gracious Name with one accord, When kings and nations gather there To serve and worship God the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 102 Used With Tune: HOLY COMMUNION

Apart from thee I long and thirst, and nought can satisfy; I wander in a desert land where all the streams are dry. 2 The loving-kindness of my God is more than life to me; so I will bless thee while I live and lift my pray'r to thee. In thee my soul is satisfied, my darkness turns to light, and joyful meditations fill the watches of the night. 3 My Savior, 'neath thy shelt'ring wings my soul delights to dwell; still closer to thy side I press, for near thee all is well. My soul shall conquer ev'ry foe, upholden by thy hand; thy people shall rejoice in God, thy saints in glory stand. Scripture: Psalm 63 Used With Tune: THE GREEN HILL Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

Today, as when Thy followers trod

Author: Dr. J. V. Smith, 1847-1916 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Communion With God Lyrics: 1 To-day, as when Thy followers trod The lone Judean way, Draw nigh, Thou risen Son of God, Our boding fears allay. 2 Weary and sad, with us commune, To each Thyself reveal; With words of hope our souls attune, And break the mystic seal. 3 Teacher from heaven, unlock the word Spoken by seers of old, Cause men to see the suffering Lord Thy glorious plan unfold. 4 So shall our hearts within us burn, And hope be all aglow, Master Divine, our spirits yearn More of Thyself to know. 5 Far-spent the day, with us abide, Be Thou our welcome guest; For they whose hearts in Thee confide Shall be for ever blest. 6 And when the shadows round us fall, And earth's brief day shall cease, O Friend of Souls, to each and all Breathe forth Thy word of "Peace."
