Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry,
While on others thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief. [Refrain]
3 Trusting only in thy merit,
Would I seek thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by thy grace. [Refrain]

Whom in heaven but thee? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: PASS ME NOT

On the holy mount seek rest,
Let thy fervent praise and prayer
Come before thy Maker there,
Knowing that, while yet a mortal,
Thou art near the Father's portal.
2 While upon this earth abiding,
Let us never cease to pray,
In the blessèd Lord confiding,
As our fathers in their day.
Be the voice of children raised
To the God our fathers praised;
May his blessing, failing never,
Rest on all his saints forever.
3 Bless us, Father, and protect us
From all harm in all our ways;
Patiently, O Lord, direct us
Safely through these fleeting days;
Let thy face upon us shine,
Fill us with thy peace divine;
Praise the Father, Son, and Spirit,
Praise him, all that life inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER
O my soul, on wings ascending
O for a closer walk with God
Author: William Cowper, 1731 - 1800 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #466 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ The Inner Life Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God,
A calm and heavenly frame,
A light to shine upon the road
That leads me to the Lamb!
2 Where is the blessedness I knew
When first I sought the Lord?
Where is the soul-refreshing view
Of Jesus and his word?
3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed!
How sweet their memory still!
But they have left an aching void
the world can never fill.
4 Return, O holy Dove, return,
Sweet messenger of rest!
I hate the sins that made thee mourn,
And drove thee from my breast.
5 The dearest idol I have known,
Whate'er that idol be,
Help me to tear it from thy throne,
And worship only thee.
6 So shall my walk be close with God,
Calm and serene my frame;
So purer light shall mark the road
That leads me to the Lamb. Languages: English Tune Title: CAITHNESS

Forgive our foolish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind,
In purer lives thy service find,
In deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
Beside the Syrian sea,
The gracious calling of the Lord,
Let us, like them, without a word,
Rise up and follow thee. A-men.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above;
Where Jesus knelt to share with thee
The silence of eternity,
Interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
Thy coolness and thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still small voice of calm!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: REST

That radiant form of thine;
The veil of sense hangs dark between
Thy blessed face and mine.
2 I see thee not, I hear thee not,
Yet art thou oft with me;
And earth hath ne'er so dear a spot
As where I meet with thee. A-men.
3 Like some bright dream that comes unsought
When slumbers o'er me roll,
Thine image ever fills my thought,
And charms my ravished soul.
4 Yet, though I have not seen, and still
Must rest in faith alone,
I love thee, dearest Lord, and will,
Unseen but not unknown.
5 When death these mortal eyes shall seal,
And still this throbbing heart,
The rending veil shall thee reveal
All-glorious as thou art.

Thou fount of life, thou Light of men,
From the best bliss that earth imparts
We turn unfilled to thee again.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
Thou savest those that on thee call;
To them that seek thee thou art good,
To them that find thee, all in all.
3 We taste thee, O thou living Bread,
And long to feast upon thee still;
We drink of thee, the Fountainhead,
And thirst our souls from thee to fill. A-men.
4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee,
Where'er our changeful lot is cast;
Glad, when thy gracious smile we see,
Blest, when our faith can hold thee fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
Make all our moments calm and bright;
Chase the dark night of sin away,
Shed o'er the world thy holy light.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WALTON (GERMANY)
Jesus, thou Joy of loving hearts
Alas! and did my Saviour bleed
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #486 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ Contemplation Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed,
And did my Sovereign die?
Would he devote that sacred Head
For sinners such as I?
2 Was it for sin that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown,
And love beyond degree!
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For man, the creature's sin.
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face,
While his dear Cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes to tears.
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe.
Here, Lord, I give myself away;
'Tis all that I can do.

We Come, O Christ, to You
Author: Margaret Clarkson Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #486 (1995) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Life in Christ Lyrics: 1 We come, O Christ, to you,
true Son of God and man,
by whom all things consist,
in whom all life began.
In you alone we live and move
and have our being in your love.
2 You are the way to God,
your blood our ransom paid;
in you we face our Judge
and Maker unafraid.
Before the throne absolved we stand;
your love has met your law's demand.
3 You are the living truth;
all wisdom dwells in you,
the source of ev'ry skill,
the one eternal true!
O great I Am! in you we rest,
sure answer to our ev'ry quest.
4 You only are true life -
to know you is to live
the more abundant life
that earth can never give.
O risen Lord! we live in you:
in us each day your life renew!
5 We worship you, Lord Christ,
our Savior and our King;
to you our youth and strength
adoringly we bring:
so fill our hearts that all may view
your life in us and turn to you! Scripture: Job 38:4-7 Languages: English Tune Title: EASTVIEW
We Come, O Christ, to You
Still, still with thee, when purple morning breaketh
Author: Harriet Beecher Stowe, 1812 - 96 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #496 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ Contemplation Lyrics: 1 Still, still with thee, when purple morning breaketh,
When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee;
Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight,
Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with thee.
2 Alone with thee, amid the mystic shadows,
The solemn hush of nature newly born;
Alone with thee in breathless adoration,
In the calm dew and freshness of the morn.
3 Still, still with thee, as to each newborn morning
A fresh and solemn splendor still is given,
So does this blessèd consciousness, awaking,
Breathe each day nearness unto thee and heaven.
4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning,
When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee;
O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning,
Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with thee.

Still, still with thee, when purple morning breaketh
Jesus, I my cross have taken
Author: Henry Francis Lyte, 1793 - 1847 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #512a (1958) Topics: The Life In Christ Service; The Life In Christ Consecration Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken,
All to leave and follow thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken,
Thou from hence my all shalt be.
Perish every fond ambition,
All I've sought, or hoped, or known;
Yet how rich is my condition,
God and heaven are still my own.
2 Man may trouble and distress me,
'Twill but drive me to thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heav'n will bring me sweeter rest.
O, 'tis not in grief to harm me,
While thy love is left to me;
O, 'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with thee.
3 Take, my soul, thy full salvation;
Rise o'er sin and fear and care;
Joy to find, in every station,
Something still to do or bear.
Think what Spirit dwells within thee,
What a Father's smile is thine,
What a Saviour died to win thee;
Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine?
4 Haste then on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith, and winged by prayer;
Heaven's eternal day's before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close thine earthly mission,
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;
Hope soon change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SERAPHIM
Jesus, I my cross have taken
