What Shall I Render to the LORD

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What shall I render to the LORD for all his benefits to me? How shall my life, by grace restored, give worthy thanks, O LORD, to thee? 2 Salvation's cup of blessing now I take and call upon God's name. Before his saints I pay my vow and here my gratitude proclaim. 3 His saints the LORD delights to save; their death is precious in his sight. He has redeemed me from the grave, and in his service I delight. 4 With thankful heart I offer now my gift and call upon God's name. Before his saints I pay my vow and here my gratitude proclaim. 5 Within his house, the house of prayer, I dedicate myself to God. Let all his saints his grace declare and join to sound his praise abroad.

The Gospel Shows the Father's Grace

Author: M. Loy, 1828-1915 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Gospel shows the Father's grace, Who sent His Son to save our race, Proclaims how Jesus lived and died That we might thus be justified. 2 It sets the Lamb before our eyes, Who made th'atoning sacrifice, And call the souls with guilt opprest To come and find eternal rest. 3 It brings the Savior's righteousness Our souls to robe in royal dress; From all our guilt it brings release And gives the troubled conscience peace. 4 It is the pow'r of God to save From sin and Satan and the grave; It works the faith, which firmly clings To all the treasures which it brings. 5 It bears to all the tidings glad And bids their hearts no more be sad; The heavy-laden souls it cheers And banishes their guilty fears. 6 May we in faith its tidings learn Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn; May we in faith its truth confess And praise the Lord our Righteousness!

O Christ, the Healer

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 38 hymnals First Line: O Christ, the healer, we have come Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the healer, we have come to pray for health, to plead for friends. How can we fail to be restored when reached by love that never ends? 2 From every ailment flesh endures our bodies clamor to be freed: yet in our hearts we would confess that wholeness is our deepest need. 3 How strong, O Christ, are our desires, how weak our knowledge of ourselves! Release in us those healing truths unconscious pride resists or shelves. 4 In conflicts that destroy our health we recognize the world's disease: our common life declares our ills. Is there no cure, O Christ, for these? 5 Grant that we all, made one in faith, in your community may find the wholeness that, enriching us, shall reach the whole of humankind.

Is Not the Cup of Blessing, Blest
