The Spirit, in our hearts

Author: Henry Ustic Onderdonk Hymnal: Church Book #346 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 The Spirit, in our hearts Is whispering, "Sinner, come:" The bride, the Church of Christ, proclaims To all His children, "Come!" 2 Let him that heareth, say To all about him, "Come!" Let him that thirsts for righteousness To Christ, the Fountain, come! 3 Yes, whosoever will, O let him freely come, And freely drink the stream of life; 'Tis Jesus bids him come. 4 Lo, Jesus, who invites, Declares, "I quickly come;" Lord, even so! I wait Thine hour; Jesus, my Saviour, come! Scripture: Revelation 22:17 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. HELENA

If God Himself be for me

Author: Richard Massie; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: Church Book #424 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Topics: Whit-Sunday Lyrics: 1 If God Himself be for me, I may a host defy; For when I pray, before me My foes confounded fly. If Christ, the Head, befriend me, If God be my support, The mischief they intend me Shall quickly come to naught. 2 I build on this foundation, That Jesus and His Blood Alone are my salvation, My true, eternal good: Without Him, all that pleases Is valueless on earth: The gifts I ow to Jesus Alone my love are worth. 3 His Holy Spirit dwelleth Within my willing heart, Tames it when it rebelleth, And soothes the keenest smart. He crown His work with blessing, And helpeth me to cry "My Father!" without ceasing To Him who reigns on high. 4 To mine His Spirit speaketh Sweet words of soothing power, How God to him that seeketh For rest, hath rest in store. How God Himself prepareth My heritage and lot, And though my body weareth, My heaven shall fail me not. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 130TH PSALM
