O Love That Will Not Let Me Go
Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Appears in 675 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 9:12-17 Lyrics: 1 O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.
2 O Light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.
3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain
that morn shall tearless be.
4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Used With Tune: ST. MARGARET

Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 396 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 9:13 Lyrics: 1 Stay, thou insulted spirit, stay,
Though I have done thee such despite,
Nor cast the sinner quite away,
Nor take thine everlasting flight.
2 Though I have steeled my stubborn heart,
And still shook off my guilty fears;
And vexed, and urged thee to depart,
For many long, rebellious years:
3 Though I have most unfaithful been,
Of all whoe'er thy grace received;
Ten thousand times thy goodness seen,
Ten thousand times thy goodness grieved:
4 Yet, oh! the chief of sinners spare,
In honor of my great High Priest;
Nor in thy righteous anger swear
T' exclude me from thy people's rest.
5 This only woe I deprecate;
This only plague I pray remove;
Nor leave me in my lost estate;
Nor curse me with this want of love.
6 Now, Lord, my weary soul release,
Upraise me with thy gracious hand,
And guide into thy perfect peace,
And bring me to the promised land. Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith; Deprecating the Withdrawal of the Spirit

Till all our wanderings cease,
And at our Father's loved abode
Our souls arrive in peace.

in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!

unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.

seeking word and melody;
there’s a dawn in every darkness,
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
3 In our end is our beginning;

in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.

at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see. Topics: Christian Year Easter Vigil; Christian Year Resurrection/Easter; Eternal Life; Hope; Jesus Christ Resurrection; Christian Year Easter Used With Tune: PROMISE
