As Near the Wished for Port We Draw

Author: Charles E. York Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As near the wished for port we draw We lift our hearts in praise to Thee, Almighty Father, loving Lord, Our Pilot on the troubled sea. 2. By Thy good care in peace we come, From fire and foe securely kept, And after tempest, at Thy word, The waves have laid them down and slept. 3. As Thou hast giv’n us outward calm, So, Lord, within us may there be A peace divine, a peace in Him, Through whom alone we live to Thee. 4. Give us more light, direct our course, Cleanse us from guile, our hearts renew; Let not dark clouds of sin shut out The star of Jesus from our view. 5. And then, our long life voyage o’er, And past the perils of the sea, Receive us on the blissful shore, To everlasting rest with Thee. 6. To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, The God whom Heav’n and earth adore, Be glory as it was of old, Is now, and shall be evermore. Used With Tune: MELCOMBE Text Sources: Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1889

Now say good night! O Father be

Author: Rev. John Humberger Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now say good night! O Father be My refuge still; to Thee I flee. When darkness, death, and terrors rise, Thy grace shall still for me suffice. 2 All praise to Christ my Savior give, For He this day hath let me live My life away in His dear name: "To live is Christ, to die is gain." 3 O Holy Ghost, Thy grace impart, To rest in Christ my troubled heart. O sweet the rest Thy grace goth bring, And bids me to my Saviour cling. 4 Now say good night! May angels bright Kep watching o'er me through the night, And spread their guardian, heavenly wings, O'er these my wearied, slumb'ring limbs. 5 "And now I lay me down to sleep; I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray, Thee, Lord, my soul to take." 6 Now say good night! To all, good night! God keep you safe till morning's light, That with His praise you all may wake; "And this I ask for Jesus sake." Topics: The Catechism Evening Used With Tune: NAZARETH (Melcombe)

To thee, Jehovah, will I cry

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 To thee, Jehovah, will I cry, my rock; O, be not silent now! Lest, if thou hold thy peace, I be like those who in the pit lie low. 2 O, hear my supplication's voice, when unto thee for help I cry, when to thy holy oracle I lift my pleading hands on high. 3 O, with the wicked draw me not away, nor with the men of sin; who to their neighbours speak of peace, but evil is their heart within. 4 Give them according to their deed, their evil doings all reward; give them according to their works, return them their desert, O Lord. 5 Since they Jehovah's mighty acts, and doings of his hands disdain, he will destroy them in his wrath, and never build them up again. 6 blest be Jehovah! He hath heard my supplication's voice in heaven; Jehovah is m strength and shield; I trusted him, he help hath given. 7 And therefore shall my heart exult, my song shall of his praises be. He is their strength; the saving strength of his anointed one is he. 8 O, save the nation of thy love, O, bless thy chosen heritage; feed them and lead them as a flock, lift thou them up from age to age.
