I heard the voice of Jesus say

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-89 Hymnal: Together in Song #585 (1999) Scripture: Ephesians 5:6-10 Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'Come unto me and rest; lay down, O weary one, lay down your head upon my breast.' I came to Jesus as I was, so weary and worn and sad; I found in him a resting-place, and he has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'Behold, I freely give the living water; thirsty one, stoop down and drink and live.' I came to Jesus, and I drank of that life-giving stream; my thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, 'I am this dark world’s light; look unto me, your morn shall rise, and all your day be bright.' I looked to Jesus, and I found in him my star, my sun; and in that light of life I’ll walk, till travelling days are done.

When all thy mercies, O my God

Author: Joseph Addison (1672-1719) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #820 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Ephesians 5:19-20 Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God, my rising soul surveys, transported with the view, I'm lost in wonder, love, and praise. 2 Unnumbered comforts to my soul thy tender care bestowed, before my infant heart conceived from whom those comforts flowed. 3 When in the slippery paths of youth with heedless steps I ran, thine arm unseen conveyed me safe, and led me up to man. 4 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts my daily thanks employ, and not the least a cheerful heart which tastes those gifts with joy. 5 Through every period of my life thy goodness I'll pursue, and after death in distant worlds the glorious theme renew. 6 Through all eternity to thee, a joyful song I'll raise; for O, eternity's too short to utter all thy praise.

Jesus Calls Us

There’s a wideness in God’s mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-63 Hymnal: Together in Song #136 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Scripture: Ephesians 5:6-10 Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy like the wideness of the sea, and forgiveness in his justice sealed for us on Calvary. 2 There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measures of our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own, and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he would not own. 5 If our love were but more simple we should take him at his word; and our lives would be illumined by the goodness of our Lord.
