Living in Christ

Thine ever-smiling face to see, And serve the cause of such a Friend. 3 I would not breathe for worldly joy, Or to increase my worldly good; Nor future days nor powers employ To spread a sounding name abroad. 4 'Tis to my Saviour I would live, To him who for my ransom died; Nor could the bowers of Eden give Such bliss as blossoms at his side. 5 His work my hoary age shall bless, When youthful vigor is no more; And my last hour of life confess His dying love, his saving power.

Bearing the Cross

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #534 (1888) Topics: Church Ordinances of First Line: Jesus, I my cross have taken Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow thee; Naked, poor, despised, forsaken, Thou, from hence, my all shalt be! Perish, every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known, Yet how rich is my condition, God and heaven are still my own! 2 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour, too; Human hearts and looks deceive me-- Thou art not, like them, untrue; Oh, while thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate, and friends disown me, Show thy fact, and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'Twill but drive me to thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me; Heaven will bring me sweeter rest! Oh, tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me; Oh, 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with thee. 4 Go, then, earthly fame and treasure! Come, disaster, scorn, and pain! In thy service, pain is pleasure, With thy favor, loss is gain. I have called thee--Abba, Father! I have stayed my heart on thee! Storms may howl, and clouds may gather, All must work for good to me. Scripture: Matthew 10:32 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLESDIE

Christ on the Cross

Author: Richard Lee Hymnal: Laudes Domini #542 (1888) Topics: Church Ordinances of First Line: When I view my Saviour bleeding Lyrics: 1 When I view my Saviour bleeding, For my sins, upon the tree; Oh, how wondrous!--how exceeding Great his love appears to me! Floods of deep distress and anguish, To impede his labors, came; Yet they all could not extinguish Love's eternal, burning flame. 2 Now redemption is completed, Full salvation is procured; Death and Satan are defeated, By the sufferings he endured. Now the gracious Mediator Risen to the courts of bliss, Claims for me, a sinful creature, Pardon, righteousness, and peace! 3 Sure such infinite affection Lays the highest claims to mine; All my powers, without exception, Should in fervent praises join. Jesus, fit me for thy service; Form me for thyself alone; I am thy most costly purchase,-- Take possession of thine own. Scripture: Numbers 21:8 Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIA
