To Thee, O Savior Friend,
Our loving prayers ascend,
To Thee we sing.
Upon Thine altars here
Our choicest gifts appear,
And all we hold most dear
To Thee we bring.Sometimes our love to Thee
Grows cold, and seems to be
A fleeting breath.
But Thine burns warm and pure
While earthly things endure:
A love forever sure
In life and death.Dear Lord, our love renew,
That we with zeal may do
Thy holy will.
Support us when we fail,
Be near us when we call,
Direct and help us all
To serve Thee still.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Joh 15:15] What A Friend Thou Art To Me!
O my Redeemer,
What a Friend Thou art to me!
Oh, what a refuge I have found in Thee!
When the way was dreary,
And my heart was sore oppressed,
’Twas Thy voice that lulled me
To a calm sweet rest.Refrain
Nearer, draw nearer,
Till my soul is lost in Thee;
Nearer, draw nearer,
Blessèd Lord, to me.When in their beauty
Stars unveil their silver light,
Then, O my Savior,
Give me songs at night—
Songs of yonder mansions,
Where the dear ones, gone before,
Sing Thy praise for ever,
On that peaceful shore.Refrain
Jesus, my Savior,
When the last deep shadows fall;
When in the silence
I shall hear Thy call—
In Thine arms reposing,
Let me breathe my life away,
And awake triumphant,
In eternal day.Refrain

John 15:19
-
[Joh 15:19] Chosen Seed And Zion’s Children
Chosen seed and Zion’s children,
Ransomed from eternal wrath,
Traveling to the heav’nly Canaan
On a rough and thorny path;
Church of God, in Christ elected,
Thou to God art reconciled,
But on earth thou art a stranger,
Persecuted and reviled.Still rejoice amid thy trials,
Nor regard thy lot amiss;
For the kind and loving Savior
Is the source of all thy bliss;
May He ever be thy portion,
He Who gave thee life and breath:
In His keeping fear no evil
Now or in the hour of death.Pleasantly thy lines have fallen
Underneath the tree of life:
For the Lord is thy salvation,
And thy shield in all thy strife:
Here the timid bird finds shelter,
Here the swallow finds a nest;
Trembling fugitive a refuge,
And the weary pilgrim rest.Faith and love are the conditions;
All on faith and love depends;
Love of law is the fulfillment,
Faith God’s mercy apprehends;
Who hath faith shall see salvation,
Who hath love shall life obtain.
May, O Lord, Thy love possess us,
And Thy Spirit in us reign.And upon this blest foundation,
Lord, our Lord and Savior King,
May Thy Spirit e’er unite us,
To it may we ever cling.
May we members of one body,
Grow into a perfect whole;
Grant, O Lord, that in Thy people,
There may be one heart and soul.Play source: Cyberhymnal
John 16:7
-
[Joh 16:7] Our Blest Redeemer, Ere He Breathed
Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed
His tender last farewell,
A Guide, a Comforter, bequeathed
With us to dwell.He came in semblance of a dove,
With sheltering wings outspread,
The holy balm of peace and love
On earth to shed.He came in tongues of living flame
To teach, convince, subdue,
All powerful as the wind He came
As viewless too.He came sweet influence to impart,
A gracious, willing Guest,
While He can find one humble heart
Wherein to rest.And His that gentle voice we hear,
Soft as the breath of even,
That checks each fault, that calms each fear,
And speaks of Heav’n.And every virtue we possess,
And every conquest won,
And every thought of holiness,
Are His alone.Spirit of purity and grace,
Our weakness, pitying, see:
O make our hearts Thy dwelling place
And worthier Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal
