From The Recesses Of A Lowly Spirit

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10497 Meter: 11.11.11.5 Lyrics: 1 From the recesses of a lowly spirit, Our humble prayer ascends; O Father! hear it, Upsoaring on the wings of awe and meekness; Forgive its weakness! 2 I know, I feel, how mean and how unworthy The trembling sacrifice I pour before Thee; What can I offer in Thy presence holy, But sin and folly? 3 For in Thy sight—who every bosom viewest, Cold are our warmest vows, and vain our truest; Thoughts of a hurrying hour; our lips repeat them, Our hearts forget them. 4 We see Thy hand—it leads us, it supports us: We hear Thy voice—it counsels and it courts us: And then we turn away—and still Thy kindness Pardons our blindness. 5 And still Thy rain descends, Thy sun is glowing, Fruits ripen round, flowers are beneath us blowing And, as if man were some deserving creature, Joys cover nature. 6 O how long-suffering, Lord! but Thou delightest To win with love the wandering—Thou invitest, By smiles of mercy—not by frowns or terrors, Man from his errors. 7 Father and Savior! plant within that bosom The seeds of holiness—and bid them blossom In fragrance and in beauty bright and vernal, And spring eternal. 8 Then place them in Thine everlasting gardens, Where angels walk, and seraphs are the wardens; Where every flower that creeps thro’ death’s dark portal, Becomes immortal. Languages: English Tune Title: HERZLIEBSTER JESU

From the recesses of a lowly spirit

Hymnal: The New Sabbath School Hosanna #144b (1870) Lyrics: 1 From the recesses of a lowly spirit My humble prayer ascends: O, Father, hear it! Borne on the trembling wings of fear and meekness, Forgive its weakness. 2 I know, I feel, how mean and unworthy The lowly sacrifice I pour before thee: What can I offer thee, O thou most holy, But sin and folly? 3 Lord, in thy sight, who every bosom viewest, Cold in our warmest vows and vain our truest Thoughts of a hurrying hour,--our lips repeat them, Our hearts forget them. 4 We see thy hand: it leads us, it support us, We hear thy voice: it counsels, and it courts us: And thee we turn away! and still thy kindness Forgives our blindness. 5 Who can resist thy gentle call, appealing To every generous thought and grateful feeling? Oh, who can hear the accents. .of thy mercy, And never love thee? 6 Kind benefactor! plant within this bosom The seeds of holiness, and let them blossom In fragrance and in beauty bright and vernal, And spring eternal. Tune Title: CHANT No. 2
