Count Well the Cost

Author: Alexander Mack Sr.; Ora W. Graber Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says Lyrics: 1 “Count well the cost,” Christ Jesus says, “when you lay the foundation.” Are you resolved, though all seem lost, to risk your reputation, your self, your wealth, for Christ the Lord, as you now give your solemn word? 2 Into Christ’s death be buried now through baptism’s joyous union. No selfish claim should you allow if you desire communion when Christ’s redeemed together meet, the bread of fellowship to eat. 3 Within the church’s warm embrace the child of God is molded. God’s Spirit lights the infant face, and in God’s grace is folded. With childlike steps, Christ’s plan we trace, till we grow up in godly grace. 4 In Christian growth we are matured, of fruitful vines a token. That this good growth may be assured ofttimes to us is broken the bread of fellowship replete when Christ’s redeemed together meet.

Jesus, Thy Light Again I View

Author: John Wesley, 1703-1791; Joachim Lange, 1670-1742 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy light again I view, Again Thy mercy’s beams I see, And all within me wakes anew To share the joy of life in Thee; Again my thoughts to Thee aspire In fervent flames of strong desire. 2 But O what offering shall I give To Thee, the Lord of earth and skies? My soul and body now receive, A holy, living sacrifice; Small as it is, ‘tis all my store, More shouldst Thou have if I had more. 3 Send down Thy likeness from above, And let this my adorning be; Clothe me with wisdom, patience, love, With lowliness and purity, Than gold and pearls more precious far, And brighter than the morning star. 4 Lord, arm me with Thy Spirit’s might, Since I am called by Thy great Name, In Thee my wandering thoughts unite, Of all my works be Thou the aim; Thy love attend me all my days, And my sole business be Thy praise. Topics: The Life In Christ Consecration Used With Tune: EISENACH

Thy blessed will Our hearts would own, with saints above; All life is larger for Thy law, All service sweeter for Thy love. 3 Thy life our code! in letters clear We read our duty day by day, Thy footsteps tracing eagerly, Who art the Truth, the Life, the Way. 4 Thy cross our creed! Thy boundless love A ransomed world at last shall laud, And crown Thee their eternal King, O Lord of Glory! Lamb of God! 5 Till then, to Thee our souls aspire In ardent prayer and earnest deed, With love like Thine, confessing, Christ's life our code! His cross our creed!
