Jesus, Saviour, pilot me

Author: Edward Hopper Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,247 hymnals Topics: Christian Life Pilgrimage and Guidance Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Saviour, pilot me Over life's tempestuous sea; Unknown waves before me roll, Hiding rock and treach'rous shoal; Chart and compass came from thee: Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. 2 As a mother stills her child, Thou canst hush the ocean wild; Boist'rous waves obey thy will When thou sayest to them, "Be still." Wondrous Sovereign of the sea, Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. 3 When at last I near the shore, And the fearful breakers roar 'Twixt me and the peaceful rest, Then, while leaning on thy breast, May I hear thee say to me, "Fear not, I will pilot thee." Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 43:2 Used With Tune: PILOT

Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken

Author: Henry Francis Lyte Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,346 hymnals Topics: Pilgrimage and Guidance Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, all to leave, and follow thee; destitute, despised, forsaken, thou from hence my all shalt be. Perish ev'ry fond ambition, all I've sought or hoped or known; yet how rich is my condition, God and heav'n are still my own. 2 Let the world despise and leave me, they have left my Savior too; human hearts and looks deceive me; thou art not, like man, untrue; and, while thou shalt smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, foes may hate and friends may shun me; show thy face, and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'twill but drive me to thy breast; life with trials hard may press me, heav'n will bring me sweeter rest. O 'tis not in grief to harm me while thy love is left to me; O 'twere not in joy to charm me, were that joy unmixed with thee. 4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation, rise o'er sin and fear and care; joy to find in ev'ry station something still to do or bear; think what Spirit dwells within thee, what a Father's smile is thine, what a Savior died to win thee: child of heav'n, shouldst thou repine? 5 Hasten on from grace to glory, armed by faith, and winged by prayer; heav'n's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission, swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; hope shall change to glad fruition, faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: ELLESDIE

The God of Abraham Praise

Author: Daniel ben Judah; Thomas Olivers Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 466 hymnals Topics: Pilgrimage and Guidance Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise, who reigns enthroned above, Ancient of everlasting days and God of love. Jehovah! Great I AM! by earth and heav'n confessed; I bow and bless the sacred name, forever blest. 2 The God of Abraham praise, at whose supreme command from earth I rise and seek the joys at his right hand. I all on earth forsake, its wisdom, fame, and pow'r, and him my only portion make, my shield and tow'r. 3 He by himself hath sworn, I on his oath depend; I shall, on eagles' wings upborne, to heav'n ascend. I shall behold his face, I shall his pow'r adore, and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore. 4 The goodly land I see, with peace and plenty blest, a land of sacred liberty and endless rest. There milk and honey flow, and oil and wine abound, and trees of life forever grow, with mercy crowned. 5 There dwells the Lord our King, the Lord our Righteousness, triumphant o'er the world and sin, the Prince of Peace. On Zion's sacred height his kingdom he maintains, and glorious with his saints in light forever reigns. 6 The whole triumphant host gives thanks to God on high; "Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!" they ever cry. Hail, Abraham's God and mine! I join the heav'nly lays; all might and majesty are thine, and endless praise. Scripture: Genesis 22:16-17 Used With Tune: LEONI Text Sources: Based on a Jewish text of Daniel ben Judah
