If thou but suffer God to guide thee

Appears in 191 hymnals Lyrics: 1 If thou but suffer God to guide thee, And hope in Him through all thy ways, He'll give thee strength whate'er betide thee, And bear thee through the evil days. Who trusts in God's unchanging love Builds on the Rock that cannot move. 2 Only be still, and wait His leisure In cheerful hope with heart content To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure And all-deserving love hath sent; Nor doubt our inmost wants are known To Him who chose us for His own. 3 Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving; So do thine own part faithfully, And trust His word; though undeserving, Thou yet shalt find it true for thee: God never yet forsook at need The soul that trusted Him indeed. Amen. Used With Tune: ELBE

Jesus, Thy boundless Love to me

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless Love to me No thought can reach, no tongue declare; Unite my thankful heart to Thee, And reign without a rival there. Thine wholly, Thine alone I am; Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 O Love, how cheering is Thy ray! All pain before Thy presence flies: Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise: O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire or seek but Thee! 3 Unwearied, may I this pursue, Dauntless to the high prize aspire; Hourly within my soul renew This holy flame, this heavenly fire; And day and night be all my care To guard this sacred treasure there!

Author: Johann J. Rambach, 1693-1735; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 46 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Baptized into your name most holy, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I claim a place, though weak and lowly, Among your saints, your chosen host, Buried with Christ and dead to sin. Your Spirit now shall live within. 2 My loving Father, there you took me To be henceforth your child and heir. My faithful Savior, there you let me The fruit of all your sorrows share. O Holy Spirit, comfort me When threat'ning clouds around I see. 3 My faithful God, you fail me never; Your promise surely will endure. Oh, cast me not away forever If words and deeds become impure. Have mercy when I come defiled; Forgive, lift up, restore your child. 4 All that I am and love most dearly - Receive it all, O Lord, from me. Let me confess my faith sincerely And help me your own child to be! Let nothing that I am or own Serve any will but yours alone.

O Gott, von dem wir alles haben

Author: Kaspar Neumann Appears in 44 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Gott, von dem wir alles haben, die Welt ist ein sehr großes Haus; du aber teilest deine Gaben recht wie ein Vater drinnen aus. Dein Segen macht uns alle reich; ach lieber Gott, wer ist dir gleich? 2 Wer kann die Menschen alle zählen, die heut bei dir zu Tische gehn? Doch muß die Nahrung keinem fehlen, denn du weißt allem vorzustehn und schaffest, daß ein jedes Land sein Brot bekommt aus deiner Hand. 3 Du machst, daß man auf Hoffnung säet und endlich auch die Frucht genießt. Der Wind, der durch die Felder wehet, die Wolke, die das Land begießt, des Himmels Tau, der Sonne Strahl sind deine Diener allzumal. 4 Und also wächst des Menschen Speise, der Acker selbst wird ihm zu Brot; es mehret sich vielfältger Weise, was anfangs schien, als wär es tot, bis in der Ernte jung und alt erlanget seinen Unterhalt. 5 Nun, Herr, wer kanns genug bedenken? Der Wunder sind hier gar zu viel. So viel du kann niemand schenken, und dein Erbarmen hat kein Ziel; denn immer wird uns mehr beschert, als wir zusammen alle wert. 6 Wir wollen es auch nie vergessen, was uns dein Segen bringet ein; ein jeder Bissen, den wir essen, soll deines Namens Denkmal sein, und Herz und Mund soll lebenslang, für unsere Nahrung sagen Dank.

O that I had a thousand voices!

Author: Johann Mentzer; Dr. Henry Mills Appears in 29 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O that I had a thousand voices! A mouth to speak with thousand tongues! Then, with a heart His praise rejoices, Would I proclaim in grateful songs To all, wherever I might be, What things the Lord hath done for me. 2 Dear Father, endless praise I render, For soul and body strangely joined; I praise Thee, Guardian kind and tender, For all the noble joys I find So richly spread on every side, And freely for my use supplied. 3 What equal praises can I offer, Dear Jesus, for Thy mercy shown? What pangs, my Savior, didst Thou suffer, And thus for all my sins atone! Thy death alone my soul could free From Satan, to be blest with Thee. 4 Honor and praise, still onward reaching, Be Thine too, Spirit of all grace, Whose holy power and faithful teaching Give me among Thy saints a place: Whate'er of good in me may shine Comes only from Thy light divine. 5 Accept, O Lord, I now implore Thee, The meager praise I give below: In heaven I better will adore Thee, When I an angel's strength shall know: There would I join their sacred praise, And heav'nly hallelujahs raise.
