Devoting himself to God
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXCVIII (1792) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: And will the eternal King Lyrics: 1 And will the eternal king
So mean a gift reward?
That offering, Lord, with joy we bring,
Which thine own hand prepar'd.
2 We own thy various claim,
And to thine altar move;
The willing victims of thy grace,
And bound with cords of love.
3 Descend, celestial fire,
The sacrafice inflame;
So shall a grateful odour rise
Thro' our Redeemer's name.

Devoting the Heart to Jesus
Hymnal: Miscellaneous Pieces in Verse and Prose #81 (1780) First Line: Jesus, what shall I do to show Lyrics:
Jesus, what shall I do to show
How much I love thy glorious name?
Let my whole heart with rapture glow
Thy boundless goodness to proclaim.
Yes, dearest Lord, my heart is thine,
Sacred to thee be all its powers!
O bid me give to love divine
The little remnant of my hours!
Thou narrow heart, ye fleeting hours,
How mean the tribute you can raise!
The grace my thankful soul adores,
Claims an eternity of praise!
Lord, if a distant glimpse of thee
Can give such sweet, such rich delight;
What must their joy, their transport be
Who dwell for ever in thy sight?
To that bright world my heart aspires,
Where all the glories of thy face
Unveil'd, shall fill the soul's desires,
And tune the song to boundless grace!
O teach my heart, my life, my voice
To celebrate thy wonderous love!
Fulfill my hopes, compleat my joys,
And bid me join the songs above. Languages: English

Devotion
Author: J. Taylor Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #17 (1866) First Line: Lord, before Thy presence come Lyrics:
Lord, before Thy presence come,
Bow we down with holy fear;
Call our erring footsteps home,
Let us feel that Thou art near.
Wandering thoughts and languid powers
Come not where devotion kneels;
Let the soul expand her stores,
Glowing with the joy she feels.
At the portals of Thine house,
We resign our earth-born cares;
Nobler thoughts our souls engross,
Songs of praise and fervent prayers.
