If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee

Author: Georg Neumark, 1621-1681; Catherine Winkworth, 1829-1878 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #304 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Assurance and Trust Lyrics: 1 If thou but suffer God to guide thee, And hope in Him through all thy ways, He'll give thee strength whate'er betide thee, And bear the through the evil days; Who trusts in God's unchanging love Builds on the rock that nought can move. 2 Be patient and await His leisure In cheerful hope, with heart content, To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure And His discerning love hath sent; Nor doubt our inmost wants are known To Him who chose us for His own. 3 He knows the time for joy, and, truly Will send it when He sees it meet; When He has tried and purged thee duly And finds thee free from all deceit. He comes to thee all unaware And makes thee own His loving care. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: NEUMARK (BREMEN)

Borthwick, 1813-1897 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #312 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Assurance and Trust Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, as Thou wilt: O may Thy will be mine! Into Thy hand of love I would my all resign. Through sorrow or thro' joy, Conduct me as Thine own, And help me still to say, "My Lord, Thy will be done." 2 My Jesus, as Thou wilt: Tho' seen thro' many'a tear, Let not my star of hope Grow dim or disappear. Since Thou on earth hast wept And sorrowed oft alone, If I must weep with Thee, My Lord, Thy will be done. 3 My Jesus, as Thou wilt: All shall be well for me; Each changing future scene I gladly trust with Thee. Straight to my home above I travel calmly on, And sing in life or death, "My Lord, Thy will be done." Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: JEWETT

Make Me a Captive, Lord

Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #326 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, And then I shall be free; Force me to render up my sword, And I shall conqueror be; I sink in life's alarms When by myself I stand; Imprison me within Thine arms, And strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor Until it master find; It has no spring of action sure-- It varies with the wind; It cannot freely move Till Thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with Thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign. 3 My pow'r is faint and low Till I have learned to serve; It wants the needed fire to glow, It wants the breeze to nerve; It cannot drive the world Until itself be driv'n; Its flag can only be unfurled When Thou shalt breathe from heav'n. 4 My will is not my own Till Thou hast made it Thine; If it would reach a monarch's throne It must its crown resign; It only stands unbent, Amid the clashing strife, When on Thy bosom it has leaned, And found in Thee its life. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PARADOXY

Lyrics: 1 All for Jesus, All for Jesus! All my being's ransom'd pow'rs: All my thoughts and words and doings, All my days and all my hours. 2 Let my hands perform His bidding, Let my feet run in His ways; Let my eyes see Jesus only, Let my lips speak forth His praise. 3 Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, I've lost sight of all beside; So enchained my spirit's vision, Looking at the Crucified. 4 Oh, what wonder! how amazing! Jesus, glorious King of kings, Deigns to call me His beloved, Lets me rest beneath His wings. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WYCLIFF

Love Divine

Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure, unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation; Enter every trembling heart. 2 Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit Into every troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit, Let us find that second rest. Take away our bent to sinning, Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. 3 Come, almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy life receive; Suddenly return, and never, Nevermore Thy temples leave: Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy hosts above, Pray, and praise Thee without ceasing, Glory in Thy perfect love. 4 Finish then Thy new creation, Pure and spotless let us be; Let us see Thy great salvation Perfectly restored in Thee: Changed from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BEECHER

We Would See Jesus

Author: Anna B. Warner, 1820-1915 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #360 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration First Line: We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Across this little landscape of our life; We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen For the last weariness, the final strife. 2 We would see Jesus; the great Rock Foundation Whereon our feet were set by sov'reign grace; Nor life, nor death, with all their agitation, Can thence remove us, if we see His face. 3 We would see Jesus; sense is all too binding, And heaven appears too dim, too far away. We would see Thee, Thyself our hearts reminding What Thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay. 4 We would see Jesus; this is all we're needing; Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight; We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading; Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CONSOLATION (Mendelssohn)
