Am I a soldier of the cross

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #456 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Self-Examination Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross, A foll'wer of the Lamb? And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His name? 2 Must I be carried to the skies, On flow'ry beds of ease? While others fought to win the prize, And sail'd through bloody seas. 3 Are there no foes for me to face? Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign; Increase my courage, Lord! I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar, And seize it with their eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, And all Thine armies shine In robes of vict'ry through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.

Sweet was the time when first I felt

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #459 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Self-Examination Lyrics: 1 Sweet was the time when first I felt The Saviour's pardoning blood Applied to cleanse my soul from guilt, And bring me home to God. 2 Soon as the morn the light reveal'd, His praises tuned my tongue; And when the evening shades prevail'd, His love was all my song. 3 In prayer, my soul drew near the Lord, And saw His glory shine; And, when I read His holy word, I call'd each promise mine. 4 Now when the evening shade prevails, My soul in darkness mourns; And when the morn the light reveals, No light to me returns. 5 Now Satan threatens to prevail, And make my soul his prey; Yet, Lord, Thy mercies cannot fail, Oh, come without delay!

Stay, Thou insulted Spirit, stay

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #460 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Self-Examination Lyrics: 1 Stay, Thou insulted Spirit, stay, Though I have done Thee such despite; Cast not a sinner quite away, Nor take Thine everlasting flight. 2 Though I have steel'd my stubborn heart, Oft shaken off my guilty fears, And vex'd and urged Thee to depart, For many long rebellious years; 3 Though I have most unfaithful been Of all who e'er Thy grace received, Ten thousand times Thy goodness seen, Ten thousand times Thy goodness grieved; 4 Yes, oh, the chief of sinners spare, In honor of my great High-Priest; Nor in Thy righteous anger swear T'exclude me from Thy people's rest. 5 This only woe I deprecate, This only plague I pray remove, Nor leave me in my lost estate, Nor curse me with this want of love. 6 E'en now my weary soul release, Upraise me with Thy gracious hand, And guide into Thy perfect peace, And bring me to the promised land.

God, Be Merciful to Me

We Have Not Known Thee As We Ought

Author: Thomas Benson Pollock Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #493 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Self-Examination Lyrics: 1 We have not known thee as we ought, nor learned thy wisdom, grace and pow'r; the things of earth have filled our thought, and trifles of the passing hour. Lord, give us light thy truth to see, and make us wise in knowing thee. 2 We have not feared thee as we ought, nor bowed beneath thine awful eye, nor guarded deed, and word, and thought, remembering that God was nigh. Lord, give us faith to know thee near, and grant the grace of holy fear. 3 We have not loved thee as we ought, nor cared that we are loved by thee; thy presence we have coldly sought, and feebly longed thy face to see. Lord, give a pure and loving heart to feel and own the love thou art. 4 We have not served thee as we ought; alas! the duties left undone, the work with little fervor wrought, the battles lost, or scarcely won! Lord, give the zeal, and give the might, for thee to toil, for thee to fight. 5 When shall we know thee as we ought, and fear, and love, and serve aright! When shall we, out of trial brought, be perfect in the land of light! Lord, may we day by day prepare to see thy face, and serve thee there. Scripture: Nehemiah 1:7 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CHRYSOSTOM
