O Help Us Lord, Each Hour of Need
Author: Henry H. Milman Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 192 hymnals First Line: O help us, Lord, each hour of need Lyrics: 1. O help us, Lord, each hour of need
Thy heavenly succor give;
Help us in thought, and word, and deed,
Each hour on earth we live.
2. O help us, when our spirits bleed
With contrite anguish sore;
And when our hearts are cold and dead,
O help us, Lord, the more.
3. O help us through the prayer of faith
More firmly to believe;
For still the more the servant hath,
The more shall he receive.
4. If, strangers to Thy fold, we call,
Imploring at Thy feet
The crumbs that from Thy table fall,
’Tis all we dare entreat.
5. But be it, Lord of mercy, all,
So Thou wilt grant but this:
The crumbs that from Thy table fall
Are light, and life, and bliss.
6. O help us, Jesu, from on high,
We know no help but Thee;
O help us to so to live and die,
As Thine in Heav’n to be. Used With Tune: BEDFORD Text Sources: Hymns Written and Adapted to the Weekly Church Service of the Year, by Reginald Heber (London: J. Murray, 1827)
O Help Us Lord, Each Hour of Need
There is a fountain filled with blood
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,534 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners, plunged neath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2 The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.
3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransomed church of God
Be saved, to sin no more.
4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
And shall be till I die.
5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing Thy power to save,
When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave. Topics: Justification Used With Tune: BEDFORD
There is a fountain filled with blood
If Thou impart Thyself to me
Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 41 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If Thou impart Thyself to me,
No other good I need:
If Thou, the Son, shalt make me free,
I shall be free indeed.
2 I know in Thee all fulness dwells,
And all for wretched man:
Fill every want my spirit feels,
And break off every chain!
3 From sin, the guilt, the power, the pain,
Thou wilt redeem my soul:
Lord, I believe, and not in vain;
My faith shall make me whole.
4 I too with Thee shall walk in white,
With all Thy saints shall prove
What is the length, and breadth, and height,
And depth of perfect love. Topics: The Order of Salvation Faith and Justification; Sundays in Lent; Fourteenth Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: BEDFORD

The Head that once was crowned with thorns
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 522 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heaven affords
Is His by sovereign right:
The King of kings and Lord of lords,
And heaven's eternal Light.
3 The joy of all who dwell above,
The joy of all below,
To whom He manifests His love,
And grants His name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
With all its grace, is given;
Their name, an everlasting name,
Their joy, the joy of heaven.
5 The cross He bore is life and health,
Though shame and death to Him:
His people's hope, His people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme. Topics: TheChurch Year Ascension; Christ Cross of; Christ King; Christ Victor Used With Tune: BEDFORD
The Head that once was crowned with thorns
Frequent the day of God returns
Author: Simon Browne Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 191 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Frequent the day of God returns,
To shed its quickening beams;
And yet how slow devotion burns,
How languid are its flames!
2 Accept my faint attempts to love;
Our frailties, Lord, forgive.
We would be like Thy saints above,
And praise Thee while we live.
3 Increase, O Lord, our faith and hope,
And fit us to ascend
Where the assembly ne'er breaks up,
The Sabbath ne'er shall end;
4 Where we shall breathe in heavenly air,
With heavenly lustre shine;
Before the throne of God appear,
And feast on Love divine. Topics: Worship Public Worship Used With Tune: BEDFORD

How wretched was our former state
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How wretched was our former state,
when, slaves to Satan’s sway,
with hearts disorder'd and impure,
o’erwhelmed in sin we lay!
2 But, O my soul! for ever praise,
for ever love his name,
who turn'd thee from the fatal paths
of folly, sin, and shame.
3 Vain and presumptuous is the trust
which in our works we place,
salvation from a higher source
flows to the human race.
4 ’Tis from the mercy of our God
that all our hopes begin;
his mercy sav'd our souls from death,
and wash'd our souls from sin.
5 His Spirit, through the Saviour shed,
its sacred fire imparts,
refines our dross, and love divine
rekindles in our hearts.
6 Thence rais'd from death, we live anew;
and, justify'd by grace,
we hope in glory to appear,
and see our Father’s face.
7 Let all who hold this faith and hope
in holy deeds abound;
thus faith approves itself sincere,
by active virtue crown'd. Scripture: Titus 3:3-9 Used With Tune: BEDFORD (1st form)
How wretched was our former state

O Thou who didst, with love untold
If God is mine, then present things
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 65 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If God is mine, then present things,
And things to come, are mine;
Yea, Christ, His Word, and Spirit, too,
And glory all divine.
2 If He is mine, then from His love,
He every trouble sends;
All things are working for my good,
And bliss His rod attends.
3 If He is mine, I need not fear
The rage of earth and hell;
He will support my feeble frame,
Their utmost force repel.
4 If He is mine, let friends forsake,
Let wealth and honors flee—
Sure He, who giveth me Himself,
Is more than these to me.
5 If He is mine, I’ll boldly pass
Through death’s tremendous vale;
He is a solid comfort when
All other comforts fail.
6 O, tell me, Lord! that Thou art mine;
What can I wish beside?
My soul shall at the fountain live,
When all the streams are dried. Used With Tune: BEDFORD Text Sources: John Rippon's Selections, 10th ed. 1800
If God is mine, then present things
