520Holy Spirit, Truth divine
521Hosanna! Music is divine
522How are thy servants blest, O lord
523How blest are they whose hearts are pure
524How happy is he born and taught
525How lovely are thy dwellings fair
526How shall I sing that majesty
527How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
528I bind unto myself today
529I heard the voice of Jesus say
530I know not what the future hath
531I learned it in the meadow path
532I look to thee in every need
533I praised the earth, in beauty seen
534I sought thee round about, O thou my God
535Immortal, invisible, God only wise
536Immortal love for ever full
537In Christ there is no East or West
538In our work and in our play (Piggott)
539It fell upon a summer day
540Jesus, good above all other
541Jesus, Lord, we look to thee
542Jesus, lover of my soul
543Jesus, meek and gentle
544Jesus, priceless treasure
545Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
546Jesus, so lowly
547Jesus, the very thought of thee
548Jesus, the very thought is sweet
549Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts
550Jesus, these eyes have never seen
551Jesus, where’er thy people meet
552Judge eternal, throned in splendor
553King of glory, King of peace
554Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom
555Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us
556Let all the world in every corner sing
557Let saints on earth in concert sing
558Let the whole creation cry
559Life of ages, richly poured
560Lift up your hearts! We lift them, Lord, to thee
561Lo, in the wilderness a voice
562Lord Christ, when first thou cam’st to men
563Lord, my weak thought in vain would climb
564Lord of all being, throned afar
565Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy
566Lord of all majesty and might
567Lord of health, thou life within us
568Lord of the strong
569Lord, thou who gav’st me all I have
570Lord, thy word abideth
571Lord, when the wise men came from far
572Lord, who thyself hast bidden us to pray
573Love divine, all loves excelling
574Love of the Father, Love of God the Son
576Make me a captive, Lord
577Mercy thou art, Creator, Friend
578Mine eyes have seen the glory
579More lovely than the noonday rest
580My faith looks up to thee
581My God, how wonderful thou art
582My God, I thank thee, who hast made
583My God, my Father, make me strong
584My Lord, my Life, my Love
585My soul, there is a country
586Nearer, my God, to thee
587Never weather-beaten sail more willing bent
588No coward soul is mine
589Not always on the mount may we
590Not with a choir of angels without number
591Now in life’s breezy morning
592Now join, ye comrades true
593O Christ, who holds the open gate
594O for a faith that will not shrink
595O for a thousand tongues to sing
596O God of Bethel, by whose hand
597O God of truth, whose living word
598O God, our help in ages past
599O happy band of pilgrims
600O heavenly Beauty, lovelier far
601O Holy Spirit, God
602O life that makest all things new
603O Lord and Master of us all
604O Lord, how happy should we be
605O Lord, in me there lieth nought
606O Lord of hosts, all heaven possessing
607O Love of God, how strong and true
608O Love, who formedst me to wear
609O sing to the Lord now, his greatness
610O sometimes gleams upon our sight
611O Son of Man, our hero strong and tender
612O source divine, and life of all
613O sweeter than the marriage-feast
614O thou in all thy might so far
615O thou not made with hands
616O thou that movest all, O Power
617O world invisible, we view thee
618O worship the King all glorious above
619Oft in danger, oft in woe
620Our Father, while our hearts unlearn
