Behold Us, Lord, Before Thee Met
Author: William Bright Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Behold us, Lord, before Thee met
Whom each bright angel serves and fears,
Who on Thy throne rememberest yet
Thy spotless boyhood’s quiet years;
Whose feet the hills of Nazareth trod,
Who art true Man and perfect God.
2. To Thee we look, in Thee confide,
Our help is in Thine own dear name;
For who on Jesus e’er relied,
And found not Jesus still the same?
Thus far Thy love our souls hath brought:
O stablish well what Thou hast wrought.
3. From Thee was our baptismal grace,
The holy seed by Thee was sown;
And now before our Father’s face
We make the three great vows our own,
And ask, in Thine appointed way,
Confirm us in Thy grace today.
4. We need Thee more than tongue can speak,
’Mid foes that well might cast us down;
But thousands, once as young and weak,
Have fought the fight, and won the crown;
We ask the help that bore them through;
We trust the Faithful and the True.
5. So bless us with the gift complete
By hands of Thy chief pastors giv’n,
That awful presence kind and sweet,
Which comes in sevenfold might from Heav’n;
Eternal Christ, to Thee we bow:
Give us Thy Spirit here and now. Used With Tune: ST. MATTHIAS
Behold Us, Lord, Before Thee Met
Lord Jesus Christ, our Lord most dear
Author: Heinrich von Laufenburg; Catherine Winkworth; H. White Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, our Lord most dear,
As Thou wast once an Infant here,
So give this child of Thine, we pray,
Thy grace and blessing day by day.
O Holy Jesus, Lord divine,
We pray Thee guard this child of Thine.
2 As in Thy heavenly Kingdom, Lord,
All things obey Thy sacred Word,
Do Thou Thy mighty succour give,
And shield this child by morn and eve.
O Holy Jesus, Lord divine,
We pray Thee guard this child of Thine.
3 Their watch let angels round it keep
Where'er it be, awake, asleep;
Thy holy Cross now let it bear,
That it Thy crown with saints may wear.
O Holy Jesus, Lord divine,
We pray Thee guard this child of Thine.
Amen.

Thou hidden love of God, whose height
Jesus, I know, hath died for me
Author: John Andrew Rothe; John Wesley Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I know, hath died for me;
Here is my hope, my joy, my rest;
Hither, when hell assails, I flee,
I look into my Saviour's breast:
Away, sad doubt and anxious fear!
Mercy is all that's written there.
2 Though waves and storms go o'er my head,
Though strength, and health, and friends be gone;
Though joys be withered all and dead,
Though every comfort be withdrawn;
On this my steadfast soul relies,
Father, Thy mercy never dies.
3 Fixed on this ground will I remain,
Though my heart fail and strength decay;
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth's foundations melt away.
Mercy's full power I then shall prove,
Loved with an everlasting Love. Topics: The Order of Salvation Faith and Justification; Sundays in Lent; Lent, First Sunday; Lent, Second Sunday; Lent, Fifth Sunday; Passion Week Used With Tune: ST. MATTHIAS

O God of ages, in whose light
Author: Mrs. Mary R. Jarvis, 1853- Appears in 1 hymnal Used With Tune: ST. MATTHIAS
O God of ages, in whose light
O Light, Whose beams illumine all
Author: E. H. Plumptre Appears in 56 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Light, Whose beams illumine all
From twilight dawn to perfect day,
Shine Thou before the shadows fall,
That lead our wandering feet astray;
At morn and eve Thy radiance pour,
That youth may love and ago adore.
2 O Way, through Whom our souls draw near
To yon eternal home of peace,
Where perfect love shall cast out fear,
And earth's vain toil and wandering cease;
In strength or weakness may we see
Our heavenward path, O Lord, through Thee.
3 O Truth, before Whose shrine we bow,
Thou priceless pearl for all who seek,
To Thee our earliest strength we vow;
Thy love will bless the pure and meek;
When dreams or mists beguile our sight,
Turn Thou our darkness into light.
4 O Life, the well that ever flows
To slake the thirst of those that faint,
Thy power to bless, what seraph knows?
Thy joy supreme, what words can paint?
In earth's last hour of fleeting breath
Be Thou our conqueror over death.
5 O Light, O Way, O Truth, O Life,
O Jesus, born mankind to save,
Give Thou Thy peace in deadliest strife;
Shed Thou Thy calm on stormiest wave;
Be Thou our hope, our joy, our dread,
Lord of the living and the dead.
