Commit thou all thy griefs

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #247 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Doubt and Fear Lyrics: 1 Commit thou all thy griefs And ways into His hands, To His sure truth and tender care, Who earth and heaven commands, Who points the clouds their course, Whom winds and seas obey; He shall direct thy wandering feet, He shall prepare thy way. 2 Thou on the Lord rely, So safe shalt thou go on; Fix on His work thy steadfast eye, So shall thy work be done. No profit canst thou gain By self-consuming care; To Him commend thy cause; His ear Attends the softest prayer. 3 Thy everlasting truth, Father, Thy ceaseless love, Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows What best for each will prove; And whatsoe'er Thou will'st, Thou dost, O King of kings What Thy unerring wisdom chose, Thy power to being brings. 4 Thou everywhere hast sway, And all things serve Thy might; Thy every act pure blessing is, Thy path unsullied light. When Thou arisest, Lord, What shall Thy work withstand? When all Thy children want Thou giv’st, Who, who shall stay Thy hand? 5 Give to the winds thy fears; Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears, God shall lift up thy head. Through waves and clouds and storms He gently clears thy way; Wait thou His time, so shall this night Soon end in joyous day. 6 Still heavy is thy heart? Still sink thy spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, And every care be gone. What though thou rulest not? Yet heaven and earth and hell Proclaim, God sitteth on the throne And ruleth all things well. 7 Leave to His sovereign sway To choose and to command, So shalt thou wondering own, His way How wise, how strong His hand. Far, far above thy thought His counsel shall appear, When fully He the work hath wrought That caused thy needless fear. 8 Thou seest our weakness, Lord! Our hearts are known to Thee: O lift Thou up the sinking hand, Confirm the feeble knee! Let us in life, in death, Thy steadfast truth declare, And publish with our latest breath Thy love and guardian care. Languages: English Tune Title: THESSALONICA

Hail, Thou once despised Jesus!

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #258 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Doubt and Fear Lyrics: 1 Hail, Thou once despised Jesus! Hail, Thou Galilean King! Thou didst suffer to release us, Thou didst free salvation bring. Hail, Thou agonizing Saviour, Bearer of our sin and shame! By Thy merit we find favor; Life is given through Thy name. 2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed, All our-sins on Thee were laid; By almighty love anointed, Thou hast full atonement made. All Thy people are forgiven Through the virtue of Thy blood: Opened is the gate of heaven, Peace is made 'twixt man and God. 3 Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory, There forever to abide; All the heavenly host adore Thee, Seated at Thy Father's side. There for sinners Thou art pleading, There Thou dost our place prepare, Ever for us interceding, Till in glory we appear. 4 Worship, honor, power, and blessing, Thou art worthy to receive; Highest praises, without ceasing, Right it is for us to give. Help, ye bright angelic spirits, All your sweetest, noblest lays, Help to sing our Saviour's merits, Help to chant Immanuel's praise. Languages: English Tune Title: MIGHTY LORD, VICTORIOUS SAVIOUR!

Jesus, I my cross have taken

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #262 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Doubt and Fear Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow Thee; Destitute, 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. Man may trouble and distress me, 'Twill but drive me to Thy breast; Life with trials sore may press me, Heaven will bring me sweeter rest. 3 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. 4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation; Rise o'er sin, and fear, and care; Joy to find, in every station, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee, What a Father's smile is thine, What a Saviour died to win thee: Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine? 6 Haste, then, on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thine earthly mission, Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Languages: English Tune Title: WORLD, FAREWELL!

Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #267 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Doubt Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts! Thou Fount of Life, Thou Light of men! From the best bliss that earth imparts We turn unfill'd 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 our souls from Thee 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! Languages: English

Jesus, priceless treasure

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #269 (1898) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Topics: Doubt and Fear Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure, Source of purest pleasure, Truest friend to me: Long my heart hath panted Till it well-nigh fainted, Thirsting after Thee. Thine I am, O spotless Lamb! I will suffer naught to hide Thee, Ask for naught beside Thee. 2 In Thine arms I rest me, Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here; Though the earth be shaking, Every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; Sin and hell, in conflict fell, With their heaviest storms assail me,-- Jesus will not fail me. 3 Hence, all fear and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; Those who love the Father, Though the storms may gather, Still have peace within; Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Still art Thou my purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure!
