The closer walk

Author: William Cowper Appears in 1,418 hymnals Topics: Conflict With Sin First Line: Oh, for a closer walk with God Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame,-- A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew When first I saw the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view Of Jesus and his word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void The world can never fill. 4 Return, O holy Dove, return, Sweet messenger of rest! I hate the sins that made thee mourn, And drove thee from my breast. 5 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from thy throne, And worship only thee. 6 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb. Scripture: Genesis 5:24 Used With Tune: HERMON

Who will be his helpers, Other lives to bring? Who will leave the world's side? Who will face the foe? Who is on the Lord's side? Who for him will go? By thy call of mercy, By thy grace Divine, We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are thine. 2 Not for weight of glory, Not for crown and palm, Enter we the army, Raise the warrior psalm; But for Love that claimeth Lives for whom he died: He whom Jesus nameth Must be on his side. By thy love constraining, By thy grace Divine, We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are thine. 3 Jesus, thou has bought us, Not with gold or gem, But with thine own lifeblood For thy diadem: With thy blessing filling Each who comes to thee, Thou hast made us willing, Thou has made us free. By thy grand redemption, By thy grace Divine, We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are thine. 4 Fierce may be the conflict, Strong may be the foe, But the King's own army None can overthrow: Round his standard ranging, Vict'ry is secure; For his truth unchanging Makes the triumph sure. Joyfully enlisting By thy grace Divine, We are on the Lord's side, Saviour, we are thine. Amen. Scripture: Exodus 32:26 Used With Tune: ARMAGEDDON

Where cross the crowded ways of life

Author: Rev. Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 384 hymnals Topics: Conflict With Sin Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, Where sound the cries of race and clan, Above the noise of selfish strife, We hear Thy voice, O Son of Man. 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, On shadowed thresholds dark with fears, From paths where hide the lures of greed, We catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 From tender childhood's helplessness, From woman's grief, man's burdened toil, From famished souls, from sorrow's stress, Thy heart has never known recoil. 4 The cup of water given for Thee Still holds the freshness of Thy grace; Yet long these multitudes to see The sweet compassion of Thy face. 5 O Master, from the mountain side, Make haste to heal these hearts of pain; Among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city's streets again, 6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love, And follow where Thy feet have trod; Till glorious from Thy heaven above Shall come the City of our God. Amen. Used With Tune: GERMANY

Author: Rev. John Hampden Gurney (1802-1862) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 248 hymnals Topics: Conflict With Sin Lyrics: 1 Lord, as to Thy dear cross we flee, And plead to be forgiven, So let Thy life our pattern be, And form our souls for heaven. 2 Help us through good report and ill Our daily cross to bear, Like Thee, to do our Father's will, Our brethren's griefs to share. 3 Let grace our selfishness expel, Our earthliness refine, And kindness in our bosoms dwell, As free and true as Thine. 4 If joy shall at Thy bidding fly, And grief's dark day come on, We, in our turn, would meekly cry, "Father, Thy will be done." 5 Kept peaceful in the midst of strife, Forgiving and forgiven, O may we lead the pilgrim's life, And follow Thee to heaven. Amen. Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA (IRISH)
