I look to Thee in every need

Author: S. Longfellow Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 I look to Thee in every need, And never look in vain; I feel Thy strong and tender love, And all is well again: The tho't of Thee is mightier far Than sin and pain and sorrow are. 2 Discouraged in the work of life, Disheartened by its load, Shamed by its failures or its fears, I sink beside the road; But let me only think of Thee, And then new heart springs up in me. 3 Thy calmness bends serene above, My restlessness to still: Around me flows Thy quickening life, To nerve my faltering will: Thy presence fills my solitude; Thy providence turns all to good. 4 Embosomed deep in Thy dear love, Held in Thy law, I stand; Thy hand in all things I behold, And all things in Thy hand; Thou leadest me by unsought ways, And turn'st my mourning into praise.

Hemma, hemma få vi hvila

Author: Lina Sandell Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Heavenly Home; Longing for Home Lyrics: 1 Hemma, hemma, få vi hvila Efter slutad kamp och strid; Hemma, hemma hos vår Fader Väntar oss en evig frid! Därför gladt framåt, I bröder, Löftesordet sviker ej, Och vi kämpa icke heller För ett ovisst mål, ack nej! 2 Målet ligger ju främför oss, Vägen är ock ej så lång, Fast den går i djupet neder Och i mörker mången gång. Jesus slaget sig igenom, O hvad tröst för oss däri; Genom honom, genom honom Öfver vinna också vi! 3 Därför upp, I trötta händer, Upp, ja, upp, I matta knän, Och i mörka otrostankar Och I tvifvel, viken hän! Ordet säger ju, att tiden, Väntans tiden är så kort, Fastän våra arma hjärtan Glömma det beständigt bort. 4 Litet mera eller mindre Utaf jordens nöd och lust, Det betyder ju så föga, När vi hunnit hemmets kust. När vi frälsta se tillbaka På vårt korta vandringståg, Hvad, om lietet mera solsken Eller moln däröfver låg? 5 Hemma få ci ändå hvila, Hvila ut i Jesu famn Efter alla vedermödor både Med och utan namn. Där skall ingen fruktan vara, Ingen oro, ingen nöd, Ingen frestelse och plåga, Inga tårar, ingen död. 6 O, så låt oss ej förtröttas, Låt oss, medan än är tid, Verka Herrens verk på jorden, Om ock under mycken strid, Ty på mödan följer hvilan Som en ljuflig nådelön, Och vårt verk är ej förgäfves, Då ju Herren hör vår bön! 7 Hemma, hemma få vi hvila, Vare det vårt fältrop här, Medan striden ännu varar, Ja, när den som heatst är! Låt oss ropa till hvarandra, Hvar vi mötas, hvad oss sker: Hemma, hemma få vi hvila! O, hvad vilja vi då mer? Used With Tune: HEMMA, HEMMA FÅ VI HVILA

I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew

Author: Anon. Appears in 90 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew He moved my soul to seek Him, seeking me; It was not I that found, O Saviour true; No, I was found of Thee. 2 Thou didst reach forth Thy hand and mine enfold; I walked and sank not on the storm-vexed sea 'Twas not so much that I on Thee took hold, As Thou, dear Lord, on me. 3 I find, I walk, I love, but O the whole Of love is but my answer, Lord, to Thee; For Thou wert long beforehand with my soul, Always Thou lovedst me.
