Thou Shepherd of Israel divine

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 179 hymnals Topics: For closer Communion with God Lyrics: 1 Thou Shepherd of Israel divine, The joy and desire of my heart, For closer communion I pine, I long to reside where thou art: The pasture I languish to find, Where all, who their Shepherd obey, Are fed, on thy boson reclin'd, And screen'd from the heat of the day. 2 Ah! show me that happiest place, That place of thy people's abode, Where saints in an ecstasy gaze, And hang on a crucified God: Thy love for a sinner declare, Thy passion and death on the tree; My spirit to Calvary bear, To suffer and triumph with thee. 3 'Tis there with the lambs of thy flock, There only I covet to rest, To lie at the foot of the Rock, Or rise to be hid in thy breast; 'Tis there I would always abide, And never a moment depart; Conceal'd in the cleft of thy side, Eternally held in thine heart. Scripture: Psalm 23

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,705 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ and God Lyrics: 1 How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear! It soothes the sorrows, heals the wounds, and drives away all fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, and calms the troubled breast; 'tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary, rest. 3 Dear Name! the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding-place, my never-failing treasury, filled with boundless stores of grace. 4 Jesus, my Shepherd, Brother, Friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 5 The effort of my heart is weak, and cold my warmest thought; but when I see you whom I seek, I'll praise you as I ought.

Who shall fulfil thy boundless praise? Blest are the souls that fear thee still, And pay their duty to thy will. 3 Remember what thy mercy did For Jacob's race, thy chosen seed; And with the same salvation bless The meanest suppliant of thy grace. 4 Oh may I see thy saints rejoice, And aid their triumphs with my voice! This is my glory, Lord, to be Join'd to thy saints, and near to thee. Scripture: Psalm 106:1-5

And yet how oft did Israel prove Thy constancy of grace! 2 They saw thy wonders wrought, And then thy praise they sung; But soon thy works of power forgot, And murmur'd with their tongue. 3 Now they believe his word, While rocks with rivers flow; Now with their lusts provoke the Lord, And he reduc'd them low. 4 Yet when they mourn'd their faults, He hearken'd to their groans; Brought his own covenant to his thoughts, And call'd them still his sons. 5 Their names were in his book, He sav'd them from their foes; Oft he chastis'd, but ne'er forsook The people that he chose. 6 Let Israel bless the Lord, Who lov'd their antient race; And Christians join the solemn word, Amen to all the praise. Scripture: Psalm 106:7-8
