Let me hide myself in Thee. Used With Tune: TOPLADY (Rock of Ages)

Jesus! and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg Appears in 1,295 hymnals Topics: The Catechism The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Jesus! and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of Thee! Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine thro' endless days! 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let ev'ning blush to own a star. He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon: 'Tis midnight with my soul till He, Bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His Name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I’ve no guilt to wash away; No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then--nor is the boasting vain-- Till then I boast a Savior slain! And, oh, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me! Used With Tune: HAMBURG

There is an eye that never sleeps

Author: James Cowden Wallace Appears in 187 hymnals Topics: The Catechism Prayer Lyrics: 1 There is an eye that never sleeps Beneath the wing of night; There is an ear that never shuts, When sink the beams of light. 2 There is an arm that never tires, When human strength gives way; There is a love that never fails, When earthly love decays. 3 That eye is fixed on seraph throngs; That arm upholds the sky; That ear is filled with angel songs; That love is throned on high. 4 But there's a power that man can wield When mortal aid is vain, That eye, that arm, that love to reach, That listening ear to gain. 5 That power is prayer, which soars on high, Through Jesus, to the throne, And moves the hand which moves the world, To bring salvation down.
