Sweet Savior, Bless Us Ere We Go
Author: Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 335 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Refrain First Line: Through life's long day and death's dark night Lyrics: 1. Sweet Savior, bless us ere we go;
Thy Word into our minds instill,
And make our lukewarm hearts to glow
With lowly love and fervent will.
Refrain
Through life’s long day and death’s dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
2. The day is done, its hours have run,
And Thou hast taken count of all,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won,
The broken vow, the frequent fall. [Refrain]
3. Grant us, dear Lord, from evil ways
True absolution and release:
And bless us, more than in past days,
With purity and inward peace. [Refrain]
4. Do more than pardon; give us joy,
Sweet fear, and sober liberty,
And simple hearts without alloy
That only long to be like Thee. [Refrain]
5. Labor is sweet, for Thou hast toiled,
And care is light, for Thou hast cared;
Let not our works with self be soiled,
Nor in unsimple ways ensnared. [Refrain]
6. For all we love, the poor, the sad,
The sinful, unto Thee we call;
O let Thy mercy make us glad:
Thou art our Jesus, and our All. [Refrain]
7. Sweet Savior, bless us; night is come;
Through night and darkness near us be;
Good angels watch about our home,
And we are one day nearer Thee. [Refrain] Used With Tune: IN TENEBRIS LUMEN Text Sources: Jesus and Mary, 1849
Sweet Savior, Bless Us Ere We Go
Tremble, Ye Families Profane
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Tremble, ye families profane,
Where the great God is not adored,
Who take the name of Christ in vain,
But do not invocate your Lord;
Regardless of His smile or frown,
Ye pull His heaviest judgments down.
2 Before the threatened curse takes place,
And sweeps your prayerless souls to hell,
Daily unite t’implore His grace,
Invite Him in your tents to dwell,
Let every house His worship show,
And every heart His presence know. Used With Tune: IN TENEBRIS LUMEN Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Holy Scriptures (Bristol, England: E. Farley, 1762)

To conquer death, my final foe;
And when I quit this cumbrous clay,
And soar on angel wings away,
My soul the second death defies,
And reigns eternal in the skies. Used With Tune: IN TENEBRIS LUMEN Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Holy Scripture (Bristol, England: E. Farley, 1762)
