Psalm 131

Author: John Newton Appears in 248 hymnals Topics: Christians Graces First Line: Quiet, Lord, my froward heart Lyrics: 1 Quiet, Lord, my froward heart, Make me teachable and mild, Upright, simple, free from art, Make me as a weaned child: From distrust and envy free, Pleased with all that pleased thee. 2 What thou shalt to-day provide, Let me as a child receive; What to-morrow may betide, Calmly to thy wisdom leave: 'Tis enough that thou wilt care; Why should I the burden bear? 3 As a little child relies On a care beyond his own, Knows he's neither strong nor wise, Fears to stir a step alone;-- Let me thus with thee abide, As my Father, Guard, and Guide. Scripture: Psalm 131:1 Used With Tune: GUIDE

Alpha and Omega be; end of faith, as its beginning, set our hearts at liberty. 5 Come, almighty to deliver, let us all thy grace receive; suddenly return, and never, nevermore thy temples leave. 6 Thee we would be always blessing, serve thee as thy hosts above; pray, and praise thee, without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love. 5 Finish then thy new creation, pure and spotless let us be; let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee. 6 Changed from glory into glory till in heav'n we take our place, till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Amazing Grace

Author: John Newton Appears in 1,431 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Grace and Mercy First Line: Amazing grace, how sweet the sound Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found,Was blind, but now I see. 2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed!3 Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far, And grace will lead me home. 4 The Lord has promised good to me, His word my hope secures; He will my shield and portion be, As long as life endures. 5 And when this flesh and heart shall fail, And mortal life shall cease;I shall possess within the veil, A life of joy and peace. 6 When we've been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we first begun.

Thou alone my Saviour art, Teach Thy wisdom to my heart; Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow, Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow. 3 Gracious God, my heart renew, Make my spirit right and tree; Cast me not away from Thee, Let Thy Spirit dwell in me; Thy salvation's joy impart, Steadfast make my willing heart, Thy salvation's joy impart, Steadfast make my willing heart. 4 Sinners then shall learn from me And return, O God, to Thee; Saviour, all my guilt remove, And my tongue shall sing Thy love; Touch my silent lips, O Lord, And my mouth shall praise accord, Touch my silent lips, O Lord, And my mouth shall praise accord.
