Oh, that I could forever dwell

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #399 (1870) Topics: Love To Christ Lyrics: 1 Oh, that I could forever dwell, Delighted at the Saviour’s feet; Behold the form I love so well, And all His tender words repeat! 2 The world shut out from all my soul, And heaven brought in with all its bliss, Oh! is there aught, from pole to pole, One moment to compare with this? 3 This is the hidden life I prize-- A life of penitential love; When most my follies I despise, And raise my highest thoughts above; 4 When all I am I clearly see, And freely own with deepest shame; When the Redeemer's love to me Kindles within a deathless flame. 5 Thus would I live till nature fail, And all my former sins forsake; Then rise to God within the veil, And of eternal joys partake.

Of all the joys we mortals know

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #390 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience Communion with Christ, and love to him; Love to Christ present or absent Lyrics: 1 Of all the joys we mortals know, Jesus, thy love exceeds the rest; Love, the best blessing here below, The highest rapture of the blest. 2 While we are held in thy embrace, There's not a thought attempts to rove; Each smile that's seen upon thy face, Fixes, and charms, and fires our love. 3 When of thine absence we complain, And long, and weep, and humbly pray; There's a strange pleasure in the pain,-- Those tears are sweet which mourn thy stay. 4 When round thy courts by day we rove, Or ask the watchmen of the night For some kind tidings from above, Thy very name creates delight. 5 Jesus, our God, descend and come; Our eyes shall dwell upon thy face; 'Tis heav'n to see our Lord at home, And feel the presence of his grace.

Blest Jesus! when my soaring thoughts

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #405 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Love to; Love To Christ Lyrics: 1 Blest Jesus! when my soaring thoughts O’er all Thy graces rove, How is my soul in transport lost-- In wonder, joy, and love! 2 Not softest strains can charm mine ears, Like Thy belovéd name, Nor aught beneath the skies inspire, My heart with equal flame. 3 Where’er I look, my wond'ring eyes Unnumber'd blessings see; But what is life, with all its bliss, If once compared to Thee? 4 When nature faints, around my bed Let Thy bright glories shine; And death shall all his terrors lose In raptures so divine.

Desiring to love Christ

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCLI (1792) Topics: Graces of the Spirit Love to Christ; Love Desiring to Love Christ First Line: Come, let me love: or is my mind Refrain First Line: L. M. Lyrics: 1 Come let me love: or is my mind Harden,'d to stone, or froze to ice? I see the blessed fair one bend, And stoop to embrace me from the skies! 2 O! 'tis a thought would melt a rock, And make an heart of Iron move, That those sweet lips, that heavenly look Should seek and wish a mortal love! 3 I was a traitor doom'd to fire, Bound to sustain eternal pains; He flew on wings of strong desire, Assum'd my guilt and took my chains. 4 Infinite grace! almighty charms! Stand in amaze, ye rolling skies! Jesus the God, extends his arms, Hangs on a cross of love, and dies. 5 Did pity ever stoop so low Dress'd in divinity and blood? Was ever rebel courted so, In groans of an expiring God? 6 Again he lives, and spreads his hands, Hands that were nail'd to torturing smart; "By these dear wounds," says he; and stands, And prays to clasp me to his heart. 7 Sure I must love; or are my ears Still deaf, nor will my passions move? Lord! melt this stubborn heart to tears; This heart shall yield to death or love. Languages: English

My God, I love Thee--not because

Author: Edward Caswall; Francis Xavier Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #451a (1899) Topics: Love To Christ Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee--not because I hope for heaven thereby-- Nor yet because, if I love not, I must forever die. 2 For me to lowest depths of woe Thou didst Thyself abase; For me didst bear the cross and shame, And manifold disgrace. 3 For me didst suffer pains unknown, Blood-sweat and agony, Yea, death itself--all, all for me Who was Thine enemy. 4 Then why, O blessèd Saviour mine, Should I not love Thee well? Not for the sake of winning heaven, Nor of escaping hell; 5 Not with the hope of gaining aught, Not seeking a reward-- But freely, fully, as Thyself Hast lovèd me, O Lord! 6 E'en so I love Thee, and will love, And in Thy praise will sing; Solely because Thou art my God, And my eternal King. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY
