Frequent the day of God returns
Author: Simon Browne Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 192 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Frequent the day of God returns,
To shed its quickening beams;
And yet how slow devotion burns,
How languid are its flames!
2 Accept my faint attempts to love;
Our frailties, Lord, forgive.
We would be like Thy saints above,
And praise Thee while we live.
3 Increase, O Lord, our faith and hope,
And fit us to ascend
Where the assembly ne'er breaks up,
The Sabbath ne'er shall end;
4 Where we shall breathe in heavenly air,
With heavenly lustre shine;
Before the throne of God appear,
And feast on Love divine. Topics: Worship Public Worship Used With Tune: BEDFORD

Father of Mercies, in Thy Word
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 767 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, in Thy Word
What endless glory shines!
Forever be Thy name adored
For these celestial lines.
2 Here may the blind and hungry come
And light and food receive;
Here shall the lowliest guest have room
And taste and see and live.
3 Here springs of consolation rise
To cheer the fainting mind,
And thirsty souls receive supplies
And sweet refreshment find.
4 Here the Redeemer’s welcome voice
Spreads heav'nly peace around,
And life and everlasting joys
Attend the blissful sound.
5 Oh, may these hallowed pages be
My ever dear delight;
And still new beauties may I see
And still increasing light!
6 Divine Instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou forever near;
Teach me to love Thy sacred Word,
And view my Savior here.

Spirit of Truth, on This Thy Day
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Spirit of truth, on this Thy day
To Thee for help we cry,
To guide us through the dreary way
Of dark mortality.
2. We ask not, Lord, Thy cloven flame,
Or tongues of various tone;
But long Thy praises to proclaim
With fervor in our own.
3. We mourn not that prophetic skill
Is found on earth no more;
Enough for us to trace Thy will
In Scripture’s sacred lore.
4. We neither have nor seek the power
Ill demons to control;
But Thou in dark temptation’s hour
Shalt chase them from the soul.
5. No heavenly harpings soothe our ear,
No mystic dreams we share;
Yet hope to feel Thy comfort near,
And bless Thee in our prayer.
6. When tongues shall cease, and power decay,
And knowledge empty prove,
Do Thou Thy trembling servants stay,
With faith, with hope, with love. Used With Tune: BEDFORD Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Written and Adapted to the Weekly Service of the Church Year (London: J. Murray, 1827)
Spirit of Truth, on This Thy Day
We walk by faith, and not by sight
Author: Dean Alford Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1. We walk by faith, and not by sight;
No gracious words we hear
From Him who spake as man ne'er spake;
But we believe Him near.
2. We may not touch His hands and side,
Nor follow where He trod;
But in His promise we rejoice,
And cry, "My Lord and God!"
3. Help then, O Lord, our unbelief;
And may our faith abound,
To call on Thee when Thou art near,
And seek where Thou art found:
4. That, when our life of faith is done,
In realms of clearer light
We may behold Thee as Thou art,
With full and endless sight. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Thomas; Doubt Used With Tune: [We walk by faith, and not by sight]
