Holy Jesus! Fountain streaming
Author: J. van Lodenstein; B. Crasselius Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Jesus Christ Our Example Lyrics: 1 Holy Jesus! Fountain streaming
Of holiness and grace redeeming,
As clear as crystal, pure and free:
Cherubim in robes of whiteness
And seraphim in all their brightness
Are darkness when compared with Thee;
Be Thou my pattern bright,
My glory and delight, Holy Savior!
O teach Thou me, that I may be
All pure and holy, like to Thee.
2 Gentle Jesus! self-denying,
And with Thy Father's will complying,
Yes, even unto death resigned:
Let me e'er, Thy way pursuing,
And pride and haughtiness subduing,
Be guided by Thy gentle mind;
Like Thee may I be mild
And gentle as a child,
Gentle Savior!
O teach Thou me, that I may be
Meek and obedient, like to Thee.
3 Loving Jesus! Thou my treasure,
Whose love to man no thought can measure,
Conform me to Thine image bright;
Send Thy Spirit, grace bestowing,
That I, in every virtue growing,
May ripen for the realms of light;
O draw me after Thee,
Forever Thine to be,
Loving Savior!
Thou givest rest to souls distressed,
And all who learn of Thee are blest. Used With Tune: [Holy Jesus! Fountain streaming]

With wandering Jacob, let us say
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Prayer scriptural examples of Lyrics:
With wandering Jacob, let us say--
"If God will keep me by the way,
Guide and defend me, clothe and feed,
Then God shall be my God indeed."
With Him who led the ransom'd flock
Through the Red Sea to Sinai's rock,
Be this our one supreme request,
Thy presence with us go or rest."
Join we God's people from our youth,
Quit the vain world like humble Ruth;
With them resolved our lot to try,
Rejoice or suffer, live or die.
Like Joshua through this war of life,
Victor in many a deadly strife,
May each this solemn pledge record,
"I and my house will serve the Lord."
74
When prayers and vows to heaven we make,
The words of Solomon we'll take,
Freely for every blessing call,
Yet ask forgiveness with them all.
And now, O Lord our God! to Thee,
This sum of our petition be,
The language of Thy blessed Son,
"Father! Thy will, not mine, be done."
With wandering Jacob, let us say
Isaac was ransom'd when he lay
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Children scriptural examples of; Scriptural examples for the young Lyrics:
Isaac was ransom'd when he lay
Upon the altar bound;
Moses, an infant cast away,
Pharaoh's own daughter found.
Joseph, by his false brethren sold,
God raised above them all;
To Hannah's child, the Lord foretold,
How Eli's house must fall.
David the bear and lion slew
And o'er Gath's champion trod;
Josiah, from his boyhood, knew
His father David's God.
To good Naomi gentle Ruth
Clave with a daughter's soul;
A little maid reveal'd the truth,
Whence Naaman was made whole.
Children are thus Jehovah's care;
Thus youth may seek His face;
Since His own Son He did not spare,
With Him He gives all grace:
Grace, like the young of whom we read,
Early in Him to trust;
A Friend in need, a Friend indeed,
As merciful as just.
353
Lord, while like them our course we read,
Be Thou to us that Friend,
And in the footsteps of Thy Son,
Conduct us to the end.
Isaac was ransom'd when he lay
Come, Follow Me
Author: John Nicholson, 1839–1909 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Example First Line: "Come, follow me," the Savior said Lyrics: 1. “Come, follow me,” the Savior said.
Then let us in his footsteps tread,
For thus alone can we be one
With God’s own loved, begotten Son.
2. “Come, follow me,” a simple phrase,
Yet truth’s sublime, effulgent rays
Are in these simple words combined
To urge, inspire the human mind.
3. Is it enough alone to know
That we must follow him below,
While trav’ling thru this vale of tears?
No, this extends to holier spheres.
4. Not only shall we emulate
His course while in this earthly state,
But when we’re freed from present cares,
If with our Lord we would be heirs.
5. We must the onward path pursue
As wider fields expand to view,
And follow him unceasingly,
Whate’er our lot or sphere may be.
6. For thrones, dominions, kingdoms, pow’rs,
And glory great and bliss are ours,
If we, throughout eternity,
Obey his words, “Come, follow me.” Scripture: Matthew 4:19 Used With Tune: [Come, follow me, the Savior said]

How Great the Wisdom and the Love
Author: Eliza R. Snow, 1804-1887 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Example Lyrics: 1. How great the wisdom and the love
That filled the courts on high
And sent the Savior from above
To suffer, bleed, and die!

His life he freely gave,
A sinless sacrifice for guilt,
A dying world to save.
3. By strict obedience Jesus won
The prize with glory rife:
“Thy will, O God, not mine be done,”
Adorned his mortal life.
4. He marked the path and led the way,
And ev’ry point defines
To light and life and endless day
Where God’s full presence shines.
5. In mem’ry of the broken flesh
We eat the broken bread
And witness with the cup, afresh,
Our faith in Christ, our Head.
6. How great, how glorious, how complete
Redemption’s grand design,
Where justice, love, and mercy meet
In harmony divine! Used With Tune: [How great the wisdom and the love]
How Great the Wisdom and the Love
