Thy Word is like a garden, Lord

Author: Edwin Hodder Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 163 hymnals Topics: Holy Scriptures Illumination of Lyrics: 1 Thy Word is like a garden, Lord, With flowers bright and fair; And every one who seeks may pluck A lovely cluster there. Thy Word is like a deep, deep mine; And jewels rich are rare Are hidden in its mighty depths For every searcher there. 2 Thy Word is like a starry host: A thousand rays of light Are seen to guide the traveler, And make his pathway bright. Thy Word is like an armory, Where soldiers may repair, And find, for life's long battle day, All needful weapons there. 3 O may I love thy precious Word, May I explore the mine, May I its fragrant flowers glean, May light upon my shine. O may I find my armor there, Thy Word my trusty sword; I'll learn to fight with every foe The battle of the Lord. Amen. Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:3 Used With Tune: SERAPH

O For a Closer Bond with God

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,418 hymnals Topics: Holy Spirit Illuminator Lyrics: 1 O for a closer bond with God, a calm and heavenly frame, A light to shine upon the road that leads us to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness we knew when first our hearts were stirred? Where is the soul-refreshing view of Jesus Christ, the Word? 3 Return, O holy Dove, return, sweet messenger of peace! Forgive our sins and help us learn in Christ to find release. 4 The dearest idols we have known, as we our ways pursue; Help us to tear them from your throne, and worship only you. 5 So shall our bond be close with God, calm and serene our frame; So purer light shall mark the road that leads us to the Lamb! Scripture: Isaiah 30:18-22 Used With Tune: BEATITUDO
