Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 266 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ and God Lyrics: 1 How sweet and awful is the place With Christ within the doors, While everlasting love displays The choicest of her stores. 2 While all our hearts and all our songs Join to admire the feast, Each of us cry, with thankful tongues, "Lord, why was I a guest? 3 "Why was I made to hear thy voice, And enter while there's room, When thousands make a wretched choice, And rather starve than come?" 4 'Twas the same love that spread the feast That sweetly drew us in; Else we had still refused to taste, And perished in our sin. 5 Pity the nations, O our God, Constrain the earth to come; Send thy victorious Word abroad, And bring the strangers home. 6 We long to see thy churches full, That all the chosen race May, with one voice and heart and soul, Sing thy redeeming grace. Amen. Scripture: Luke 14:14-24 Used With Tune: ST. COLUMBA

O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts

Author: Anonymous; Rev. Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 574 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts, Thou fount of life, Thou light of men, From fullest bliss that earth imparts We turn unfilled to Thee again, We turn unfilled to Thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged has ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call; To them that seek Thee Thou art good, To them that find Thee, all in all, To them that find Thee, all in all. 3 We taste Thee, O Thou living bread, And long to feast upon Thee still; We drink of Thee, the fountainhead, And thirst our souls from Thee to fill, And thirst our souls from Thee to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast, Glad, that Thy gracious smile we see, Blest, that our faith can hold Thee fast, Blest, that our faith can hold Thee fast. 5 O Jesus, ever with us stay, Make all our moments calm and bright; Chase the dark night of sin away, Shed o'er the world Thy holy light, Shed o'er the world Thy holy light.

Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Author: C. Winkworth; J. Franck Meter: Irregular Appears in 137 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless Treasure, Fount of truest pleasure, Dearest Friend to me! Ah, how long in anguish Shall my spirit languish, Thirsting, Lord, for Thee? Thou art mine, O Lamb divine! I will suffer naught to hide Thee, Naught I ask beside Thee. 2 In Thine arms I rest me, Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here; Tho' the earth be quaking And the heavens shaking, Jesus calms my fear. Lightnings flash and thunders crash, Sin and hell in wrath assail me, Yet He will not fail me. 3 Hence, ye earthly treasures! I disown your pleasures, Jesus is my choice. Hence, thou empty glory! Naught to me thy story, Told with tempting voice. Peril, loss, disdain and cross Shall not from my Savior wrest me, Who hath owned and blest me. 4 Hence, ye moods of sadness! For the sun of gladness Deigns to shine in me. They who love the Father, Tho' the clouds may gather, Filled with peace shall be. Though of care I have my share, Thou art still my joy and pleasure, Jesus, priceless Treasure! Used With Tune: GAUDEO

All pain before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away Where'er Thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire or seek, but Thee! 3 Unwearied, may I this pursue, Dauntless, to this high prize aspire; Hourly within my soul renew This holy flame, this heavenly fire; And day and night be all my care To guard this sacred treasure there!
