Oh, may Thy love possess me whole, My joy, my treasure, and my crown. 3 Unwearied, may I this pursue, Dauntless to this high prize aspire; Hourly within my soul renew This holy flame, this heavenly fire. 4 Still let Thy love point out my way; How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my word, inspire my thought. 5 In suff'ring, be Thy love my peace, In weakness be Thy love my power, And when the storms of life shall cease, Receive me in the trying hour.

God Our Advocate and Judge

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Christ Crucifixion and Death of First Line: Be Thou my helper in the strife Lyrics: 1 Be Thou my helper in the strife, O Lord, my strong defender be; Thy mighty shield protect my life, Thy spear confront the enemy, Amid the conflict, O my Lord, Thy precious promise let me hear, The faithful, reassuring word: I am thy Saviour, do not fear. 2 Ashamed, confounded let them be Who seek my ruin and disgrace; O let Thy angel fight for me, And drive my foes before his face. Without a cause my life they sought, Without a case their plots they laid; Themselves within their snares be caught, And be my crafty foes dismayed. 3 My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. For who, O Lord, is like to Thee, Defender of the poor and meek? The needy Thy salvation see When mighty foes their ruin seek. 4 Unrighteous witnesses have stood And told of crimes beyond belief; Returning evil for my good, They overwhelm my soul with grief. When in affliction they were sad, I wept and made their grief my own; But in my trouble they are glad And strive that I may be o'erthrown. 5 O Lord, how long wilt Thou delay? My soul for Thy salvation waits; My thankfulness I will display Amid the crowds that throng Thy gates. Let not my enemies rejoice And wrongfully exult o'er me; They speak not peace, but lift their voice To trouble those that peaceful be. 6 My foes with joy my woes survey, but Thou, O Lord, hast seen it all; O be no longer far away, Nor silent when on Thee I call. O haste to my deliverance now, O Lord, my righteous cause maintain; My Lord and God alone art Thou; Awake, and make thy justice plain. 7 O Lord my God, I look to Thee, Be Thou my righteous Judge, I pray; Let not my foes exult o'er me And laugh with joy at my dismay. With shame and trouble those requite Who would my righteous cause destroy; But those who in the good delight, Let them be glad and shout for joy. 8 Yea, let the Lord be magnified, Because Thy servants Thou dost bless; And I, from morn till eventide, Will daily praise Thy righteousness. My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. Scripture: Psalm 35 Used With Tune: CATHERINE

"All-Forgiving!"

Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Christ Crucifixion of First Line: Life of the world! I hail thee Lyrics: 1 Life of the world! I hail thee; Hail, Jesus, Saviour dear! I to thy cross could yield me, Might I to thee be near. Thyself, in all thy fullness, My Lord, to me impart: To thee I come as with me, Yea, find thee in my heart. 2 Look on me, All-Forgiving! Low at thy feet I bow: Oh, all-divine thou seemest, As I behold thee now! I clasp with tender passion, Thy feet, so pierced for us, The cruel wombs deep graven, O'erwhelmed to see thee thus! 3 While here with thee I linger, Take me, dear Saviour mine! Oh, draw me to thee closer, And make me wholly thine; Say, "Be thou saved, O sinner!" And gladly at thy call, On thy sure word relying, To thee I give my all. Used With Tune: GERHARDT

What thousands hate it when 'tis known! None but the upright and sincere Will seek or choose it for their own. 2 A thousand ways in ruin end, One only leads to joys on high; By that my willing steps ascend, Pleased with a journey to the sky. 3 No more I ask, or hope to find Delight or happiness below; Sorrow may well possess the mind That feeds where thorns and thistles grow. 4 The joy that fades is not for me, I seek immortal joys above; There glory, without end, shall be The bright reward of faith and love.
