Jesu, the very thought of thee
Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,025 hymnals Matching Instances: 304 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, the very thought of thee
with sweetness fills the breast;
but sweeter far thy face to see,
and in thy presence rest.
2 No voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
nor can the memory find
a sweeter sound than Jesu's name,
the Saviour of mankind.
3 O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
to those who ask how kind thou art,
how good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
nor tongue nor pen can show;
the love of Jesus, what it is
none but his loved ones know.
5 Jesu, our only joy be thou,
as thou our prize wilt be;
in thee be all our glory now,
and through eternity. Topics: Adoration; Devotion; Future hope; Jesus Name; Rest Scripture: Ephesians 3:17-19 Used With Tune: ST AGNES (Dykes) Text Sources: Based on Jesu, dulcis memoria, (Latin, c. 12th century)

Happy the home when God is there
Calm on the list'ning ear of night
Author: Edmund H. Sears Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 349 hymnals Matching Instances: 19 Lyrics:
Calm on the listening ear of night
Come heaven's melodious strains,
Where wild Judea stretches far
Her silver-mantled plains.
Celestial choirs from courts above
Shed sacred glories there;
And angels, with their sparkling lyres,
Make music on the air.
The answering hills of Palestine
Send back the glad reply;
And greet, from all their holy heights,
The Dayspring from on high.
O'er the blue depths of Galilee
There comes a holier calm,
And Sharon waves, in solemn praise,
Her silent groves of palm.
"Glory to God!" the sounding skies
Loud with their anthems ring,
"Peace to the earth, good will to men,
From heaven's eternal King!"
Light on thy hills, Jerusalem!
The Savior now is born:
More bright on Bethlehem's joyous plains
Breaks the first Christmas morn.

To seek Thee more and more!

And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine own!

O, for a Faith that Will Not Shrink
Author: William H. Bathurst Appears in 690 hymnals Matching Instances: 8 Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink,
Tho' pressed by every foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe!--
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod,
But, in the hour of grief or pain,
Will lean upon its God;--
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without;
That when in danger knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt.--
4 Lord, give us such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
We’ll taste, e’en here, the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home. Topics: Christ Character; Christ Character Used With Tune: [O, for a faith that will not shrink]
