God of Love, That Hearest Prayer

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 82 hymnals Lyrics: 1. God of love, that hearest prayer, Kindly for Thy people care, Who on Thee alone depend: Love us, save us to the end. 2. Save us, in the prosperous hour, From the flattering tempter’s power, From his unsuspected wiles, From the world’s pernicious smiles. 3. Cut off our dependence vain On the help of feeble man, Every arm of flesh remove; Stay us on Thy only love! 4. Men of worldly, low design, Let not these Thy people join, Poison our simplicity, Drag us from our trust in Thee. 5. Save us from the great and wise, Till they sink in their own eyes, Tamely to Thy yoke submit, Lay their honors at Thy feet. 6. Never let the world break in; Fix a mighty gulf between: Keep us little and unknown, Prized and loved by God alone. 7. Let us still to Thee look up, Thee, Thy Israel’s strength and hope; Nothing know, or seek, beside Jesus, and Him crucified. 8. Far above all earthly things, Look we down on earthly kings; Taste our glorious liberty, Find our happiness in Thee!

Cast Your Burden on the Lord

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 188 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Cast your burden on the Lord, only lean upon his word; you will soon have cause to bless his eternal faithfulness. 2 He sustains you by his hand, he enables you to stand; those whom Jesus once had loved from his grace are never moved. 3 Human counsels come to naught; that shall stand which God has wrought; his compassion, love, and pow'r are the same forevermore. 4 Heav’n and earth may pass away, God’s free grace shall not decay; he has promised to fulfil all the pleasure of his will. 5 Jesus, guardian of your flock, be yourself our constant rock; make us, by your pow'rful hand, strong as Zion’s mountain stand.
