Thy Wondrous Testimonies, Lord

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thy wondrous testimonies, Lord, My soul will keep and greatly praise; Thy Word, by faithful lips proclaimed, To simplest minds the truth conveys. 2 I thirst for Thy commandments, Lord, And for Thy mercy press my claim; O look on me, and show the grace Displayed to all who love Thy Name. 3 Direct my footsteps in Thy Word, From sin's dominion save my soul, From man's oppression set me free, That I may yield to Thy control. 4 O make Thy face to shine on me, And teach me all Thy laws to keep; Because Thy statutes are despised, With overwhelming grief I weep.

Një Gjë Shumë E Çuditshme

Author: William W. How; Jan Foss, 1954- Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Një gjë shumë e çuditshme ësht’ Lyrics: 1 Një gjë shumë e çuditshme ësht’, Si mund të jet’ e mundur kjo? Nga qielli zbriti Zoti im Të vdesë për mua, një fajtor. 2 E di, që e vërtet’ ësht’ kjo: Ai si njeri u shfaq mbi dhe. Lot, djers, mundim duronte ai Për shkak se shumë na deshi ne. 3 K’të dashuri unë s’e kuptoj! Si mund aí t’më deshte mua? Çfar’ dashuri ndaj meje ka, Që mua më bën atë ta dua. 4 Për kryqin unë mendoj ndonj’herë Dhe sytë i mbyll për ta shikuar Sa shumë Jezusi vuante Kur vdiq at’herë në kryq për mua. 5 Po edhe mund ta shihja unë Si vdiste ai, kjo do të jetë Një pjes’ e vog’l e dashurisë Që duhet ai për mua të ketë. 6 Edhe pse e çuditshme është Ta njoh unë dashurinë e tij. Edhe kjo dashuri e zbehtë Që kam për të ësht’ një çudi! 7 Që të të dua kam dëshirë, Ti ndez tek unë një flak’ të re, Gjithnjë edhe më shumë të dua, Gjersa t’të shoh ashtu si je.

While o'er the deep Thy servants sail

Author: G. Burgess Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While o'er the deep Thy servants sail, Send Thou, O Lord, the prosperous gale; And on their hearts, where'er they go, O let Thy heavenly breezes blow. 2 If on the morning's wings they fly, They will not pass beyond Thine eye: The wanderer's prayer Thou bend'st to hear, And faith exults to know Thee near. 3 When tempests rock the groaning bark, Oh, hide them safe in Jesus' ark! When in the tempting port they ride Oh, keep them safe at Jesus' side! 4 If life's wide ocean smile or roar, Still guide them to the heavenly shore; And grant their dust in Christ may sleep, Abroad, at home or in the deep. Amen. Topics: Travellers by Sea or Land Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD

Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts

Author: R. Palmer; St. Bernard of Clairvaux Appears in 582 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts, Thou fount of life, Thou Light of men, From the best bliss the earth imparts, We turn unfilled to Thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call; To them that seek Thee, Thou art good, To them that find Thee, all in all. 3 We taste Thee, O Thou living Bread! And long to feast upon Thee still; We drink of Thee, the Fountain Head, And thirst from Thee our souls to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad, when Thy gracious smile we see, Blest, when our faith can hold thee fast. 5 O Jesus, ever with us stay! Make all our moments calm and bright! Chase the dark night of sin away! Shed o'er the world Thy holy light! Topics: The Church Holy Communion Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD

O Thou, Who Gav'st Thy Servant Grace

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Thou, who gav’st Thy servant grace On Thee the living rock to rest, To look on Thine unveiled face, And lean on Thy protecting breast. 2. Grant us, O King of mercy, still To feel Thy presence from above, And in Thy word and in Thy will To hear Thy voice and know Thy love. 3. And when the toils of life are done, And nature waits Thy just decree, To find our rest beneath Thy throne, And look in certain hope to Thee. 4. To Thee, O Jesus, light of light, Whom as their king the saints adore, Thou strength and refuge in the fight, Be laud and glory evermore.
