The voice of my beloved sounds
Meter: 8.8.8.8.7.7 Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: The voice of my beloved sounds,While o’er the mountain-tops he bounds,He flies exulting o’er the hills,And all my soul with transport fills!Gently doth he chide my stay“Rise, my love, and come away.”The scattered clouds are fled at last,The rain is gone, the winter past,The lovely vernal flowers appear,The warbling quire enchant our ear:Now with sweetly pensive moan,Coos the turtle-dove alone. Used With Tune: VERNAL FLOWERS
The voice of my beloved sounds
God the Spirit, We Adore Thee
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 8.8.8.8.7.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. God the Spirit, we adore Thee,
In the trinal Godhead One,
One in love and power and glory
With the Father and the Son;
Prayer and praise to Thee we bring,
Our devotion’s offering.
2. Once the desolate world-ocean
Quickened from its long death-sleep,
Woke to light and life’s emotion
At Thy brooding o’er its deep;
Spirit, ever may Thy breath
Quicken us from sleep and death!
3. Holy Fount of inspiration,
By whose gift the great of old
Spake the Word of revelation,
Marvelous and manifold,
Grant to us who see and hear
Reverence of eye and ear.
4. Priceless Gift of Christ for ever,
Righteousness and peace and joy,
Which the evil world, that never
Can receive, cannot destroy,
Shall the Church or faint or fear
While the Comforter is near?
5. Author of our new creation,
Giver of the second birth,
May Thy ceaseless renovation
Cleanse our souls from stains of earth,
And our bodies ever be
Holy temples meet for Thee.
6. When we wander, Lord, direct us,
Keep us in the Master’s way,
Let Thy strong, swift sword protect us,
Warring in the evil day;
Paraclete for every need,
Come to strengthen and to lead!
7. Come, Thy glorious gifts providing,
Foretaste of the future now,
Bring that sweet sense of abiding
Thou canst give and only Thou,
One in Thee, we shall be one
In the Father and the Son. Amen. Used With Tune: MONK Text Sources: Lyra Fidelium; Twelve Hymns of the Twelve Articles of the Apostle's Creed (London: Messrs. Parker and Co., 1866)

Ao an-dapany, Jesosy (In Jesus' palace)
'Tis the Lord thus far hath brought me
Meter: 8.8.8.8.7.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 'Tis the Lord thus far hath brought me,
By his watchful tender care;
Sure 'tis he himself hath taught me
How to seek his face by prayer;
After so much mercy past,
Will he give me up at last?
2 True I've been a guilty creature,
And have sinned against his grace;
But forgiveness is his nature,
Though he justly hides his face:
Ere he called me, well he knew
What a heart like mine would do.
3 In the Savior's intercession
Therefore still I will confide;
Lord accept my free confession:
Though I've sinned, yet thou hast died;
This is all I have to plead,
This is all the plea I need.
