This child we dedicate to Thee

Author: Dr. S. Gilman, 1791-1858 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #254 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 This child we dedicate to Thee, O God of grace and purity! Shield it from sin and threatening wrong, And let Thy love its life prolong. 2 O may Thy Spirit gently draw Its willing soul to keep Thy law! May virtue, piety, and truth, Dawn even with its dawning youth. 3 We, too, before Thy gracious sight, Once shared the blest baptismal rite, And would renew its solemn vow With love, and thanks, and praises, now. 4 Grant that, with true and faithful heart, We still may act the Christian's part, Cheered by each promise Thou hast given, And labouring for the prize in heaven.

According to Thy gracious word

Author: J. Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #257 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 According to Thy gracious word, In meek humility, This will I do, my dying Lord, I will remember Thee! 2 Thy body, broken for my sake, My bread from heaven shall be; Thy testamental cup I take, And thus remember Thee! 3 Gethsemane can I forget? Or there Thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember Thee! 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my Sacrifice, I must remember Thee! 5 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains, And all Thy love to me; Yes, while a breath, a pulse remains, Will I remember Thee. 6 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and memory flee, When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come, Jesus, remember me!

In memory of the Saviour's love

Cotterill, 1779-1824 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #258 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 In memory of the Saviour's love, We keep the sacred feast, Where every humble, contrite heart Is made a welcome guest. 2 By faith we take the bread of life With which our souls are fed, The cup in token of His blood That was for sinners shed. 3 Under His banner thus we sing The wonders of His love, And thus anticipate by faith The heavenly feast above.

Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face

Author: Dr. H. Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #259 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 Here, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face; Here would I touch and handle things unseen, Here grasp with firmer hand the eternal grace, And all my weariness upon Thee lean. 2 Here would I feed upon the bread of God, Here drink with Thee the royal wine of heaven; Here would I lay aside each earthly load, Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiven. 3 This is the hour of banquet and of song; This is the heavenly table spread for me; Here let me feast, and feasting still prolong The brief bright hour of fellowship with Thee. 4 Too soon we rise; the symbols disappear; The feast, though not the love, is past and gone; The bread and wine remove, but Thou art here, Nearer than ever; still my Shield and Sun. 5 I have no help but Thine; nor do I need Another arm save Thine to lean upon; It is enough, my Lord, enough indeed; My strength is in Thy might, Thy might alone.

Come all who truly bear

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #260 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 Come, all who truly bear The name of Christ your Lord, His last mysterious supper share, And keep His kindest word. 2 Hereby your faith approve In Jesus crucified; "In memory of My dying love, Do this," He said, and died. 3 Then let us still profess Our Master's honoured name; Stand forth His faithful witnesses, True followers of the Lamb. 4 In proof that such we are, His saying we receive, And thus to all mankind declare We do in Christ believe. 5 Who thus our faith employ, His sufferings to record, Even now we mournfully enjoy Communion with our Lord. 6 We too with Him are dead, And shall with Him arise; The cross on which He bows His head Shall lift us to the skies.

O Holy Father, who in tender love

Author: Bp. E. H. Bickersteth, 1825-1906 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #261 (1917) Topics: The Church and the Kingdom of God Ordinances Lyrics: 1 O Holy Father, who in tender love Didst give Thine only Son for us to die, The while He pleads at Thy right hand above, We in One Spirit now with faith draw nigh, And, as we eat this Bread and drink this Wine, Plead His once offered Sacrifice Divine. 2 We are not worthy to be called Thy sons, Nor gather up the fragments of Thy feast; Yet look on us, Thy sorrowing contrite ones, On us in Him our Advocate and Priest, Whose robe is fringed with mercy's golden bells, Whose breastplate fathomless compassion tells. 3 O hear us, For Thou always hearest Him; Behold us sprinkled with His precious blood; And from between the shadowing cherubim Shine forth, and grant us in this heavenly food Foretastes of coming glory, and meanwhile A Father's blessing and a Father's smile. 4 Nor only, Father, in Thy presence here Low at Thy footstool for ourselves we pray, But for the loved ones to our hearts most near At home or toiling in far lands away; O guard them, guide them, comfort and befriend, And keep them Thine unfaltering to the end. 5 And, Father, ere we leave Thy mercy-throne, Bound by these sacred pledges, yet most free, We give our hearts, and not our hearts alone, But all we are and all we have to thee; Glad free-will offerings all our pilgrim days, Hereafter an eternity of praise.
