Spirit of God descend upon my heart

Author: George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 347 hymnals Topics: Supplication Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God descend upon my heart; Wean it from earth, thro' all its pulses move; Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art, And make me love Thee as I ought to love. 2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies, No sudden rending of the veil of clay, No angel visitant, no opening skies; But take the dimness of my soul away. 3 Teach me to feel that Thou are always nigh; Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear, To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; Teach me the patience of unceasing prayer. 4 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,-- One holy passion filling all my frame: The kindling of the Heaven-descended Dove, My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. Amen. Used With Tune: ELLERTON

Author: Thomas Haweis Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 419 hymnals Topics: Supplication For Deliverance Lyrics: 1 O thou from whom all goodness flows, I lift my soul to thee; In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes, Good Lord, remember me. 2 When on my aching, burdened heart My sins lie heavily, Thy pardon grant, new peace impart: Good Lord, remember me. 3 When trials sore obstruct my way, And ills I cannot flee, O let my strength be as my day: Good Lord, remember me. 4 If, for thy sake, upon my name Shame and reproach shall be, All hail reproach, and welcome shame! Good Lord, remember me. 5 If worn with pain, disease, or grief, This feeble frame should be, Grant patience, rest, and kind relief: Good Lord, remember me. 6 When, in the solemn hour of death, I wait thy just decree, Be this the pray'r of my last breath: Good Lord, remember me. Amen. Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM Text Sources: Alt. in Thomas Cotterill's Selections, 1819

A heart that always feels Thy blood So freely spilt for me! 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer's throne! Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone: 3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within: 4 A heart in every thought renewed And full of love divine; Perfect and right, and pure and good, A copy, Lord, of thine! 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart. Come quickly from above; Write Thy new name upon my heart, Thy new, best name of Love. Amen. Used With Tune: WOODSIDE
