And must I part with all I have

Author: Beddome Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #406 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Renunciation of the World Lyrics: 1 And must I part with all I have, Jesus, my Lord, for thee? This is my joy, since thou hast done Much more than this for me. 2 Yes, let it go--one look from thee Will more than make amends For all the losses I sustain Of credit, riches, friends. 3 Ten thousand worlds, ten thousand lives, How worthless they appear, Compared with thee, supremely good, Divinely bright and fair! 4 Saviour of souls, while I from thee A single smile obtain, Though destitute of all things else, I'll glory in my gain. Scripture: Matthew 16:24

My Jesus, I Love Thee, I Know Thou Art Mine

My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 2 I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me, And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree. I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 3 I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say, when the death-dew lies cold on my brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 4 In mansions of glory and endless delight, I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.

Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #428 (1934) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Topics: Renunciation Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure, Source of purest pleasure, Truest Friend to me: Ah, how long I've panted And my heart has fainted, Thirsting, Lord, for Thee. Thine I am, O spotless Lamb! 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. Though the earth be shaking, Every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear. Fires may flash and thunder crash, Yea, and sin and hell assail me, Jesus will not fail me. 3 Hence with earthly treasure! Thou art all my pleasure, Jesus, all my choice, Hence, thou empty glory! Naught to me thy story, Told with tempting voice. Pain or loss or shame or cross Shall not from my Savior move me, Since He deigns to love me. 4 Fare thee well that errest, Thou that earth preferrest, Thou wilt tempt in vain. Fare thee well, transgression! Hence, abhorred possession! Come not forth again. Past your hour, O pride and power! Worldly life, thy bonds I sever; Fare thee well forever! 5 Hence, all fear and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in. Those who love the Father, Though the storms may gather, Still have peace within. Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Thou are still my purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure.

A Mighty Fortress is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Rev. Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #431 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Renunciation Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing; Our Helper He, amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe; His craft and power are great, And armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. 2 Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing; Were not the right Man on our side, The Man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He; Lord Sabaoth His Name, From age to age the same, And He must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God has willed His truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure; One little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers– No thanks to them– abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; The body they may kill, God's truth abideth still, His kingdom is forever. Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG

Nearer, Still Nearer, Close to Thy Heart

Author: C. H. M. Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #438 (1934) Meter: 9.10.9.10 Topics: Renunciation Lyrics: 1 Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart, Draw me, my Savior, so precious Thou art. Fold me, O fold me close to Thy breast; Shelter me safe in that haven of rest, Shelter me safe in that haven of rest. 2 Nearer, still nearer; nothing I bring, Naught as an offering to Jesus, my King– Only my sinful, now contrite heart; Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart, Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart. 3 Nearer, still nearer, Lord, to be Thine, Sin with its follies, I gladly resign, All of its pleasures, pomp, and its pride; Give me but Jesus, my Lord crucified, Give me but Jesus, my Lord crucified. 4 Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last, Till safe in glory my anchor is cast; Through endless ages, ever to be Nearer, my Savior, still nearer to Thee, Nearer, my Savior, still nearer to Thee.

In the Hour of Trial

Author: Rev. James Montgomery Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #439 (1934) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Renunciation Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me; Lest by base denial I depart from Thee; When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With forbidden pleasures Would this vain world charm, Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm, Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe, Or should pain attend me On my path below, Grant that I may never Fail Thy hand to see; Grant that I may ever Cast my care on Thee. 4 When in dust and ashes To the grave I sink, When heaven's glory flashes O'er the shelving brink, On Thy truth relying, Through that mortal strife, Lord, receive me, dying, To eternal life.
