Stricken, smitten and afflicted

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #148 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Stricken, smitten, and afflicted, See Him dying on the tree! 'Tis the Christ by man rejected; Yes, my soul, 'tis He, 'tis He! 2 Ye who think of sin but lightly, Nor suppose the evil great, Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate. 3 Mark the sacrifice appointed! See who bears the awful load; 'Tis the Word, the Lord's Anointed, Son of man, and Son of God. 4 Here we have a firm foundation, Here the refuge of the lost; Christ's the Rock of my salvation: His the name of which we boast. 5 Lamb of God for sinners wounded! Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on Thee their hopes have built.

Jesus, while our hearts are bleeding

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #149 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, while our hearts are bleeding O’er the spoils that death has won, We would at this solemn meeting Calmly say, Thy will be done. 2 Though cast down, we’re not forsaken, Though afflicted, not alone; Thou didst give, and Thou hast taken: Blessed Lord, Thy will be done. 3 Though to-day we’re filled with mourning, Mercy still is on the throne; With Thy smiles and love returning, We can sing, Thy will be done. 4 By Thy hands the boon was given, Thou hast taken but Thine own: Lord of earth, and God of heaven, Evermore, Thy will be done.

Jesus, refuge of the weary

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #150 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, refuge of the weary, Object of the Spirit's love, Fountain in life's desert dreary, Saviour from the world above: 2 O how oft Thine eyes, offended, Gazed upon the sinner's fall! Yet, upon the cross extended, Thou didst bear the pain of all. 3 Do we pass that cross unheeding, Breathing no repentant vow, Though we see Thee wounded, bleeding, See Thy thorn-encircled brow? 4 Yet Thy sinless death has brought us Life eternal, peace, and rest; Only what Thy grace has taught us Calms the sinner's stormy breast. 5 Jesus, may our hearts be burning With more fervent love for Thee; May our eyes be ever turning To Thy cross of agony; 6 Till in glory, parted never From the blessed Saviour's side, Graven in our hearts for ever, Dwell the cross, the Crucified.

Days and moments quickly flying

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #152 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Days and moments quickly flying Speed us onward to the dead; Oh, how soon shall we be lying Each within his narrow bed! 2 Jesus, merciful Redeemer, Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice; Wake, oh, wake each idle dreamer Now to make the eternal choice! 3 Mark me whither we are wending; Ponder how we soon must go To inherit bliss unending, Or eternity of woe. 4 As a shadow life is fleeting; As a vapor so it flies: For the bygone years retreating, Pardon grant, and make us wise; 5 Wise that we our days may number, Strive and wrestle with our sin; Stay not in our work, nor slumber Till Thy holy rest we win.

Heavenly Father, Thou hast given

Saviour, breathe an evening blessing

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #154 (1898) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing; Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal. 2 Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrows past us fly, Angel-guards from Thee surround us; We are safe if Thou art nigh. 3 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He who, never weary, Watcheth where Thy people be. 4 Should swift death this night o’ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn in heaven awake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom.

Abide with me! fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #155 (1898) Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me! 3 Come not in terrors as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings, Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; O Friend of sinners, thus abide with me! 4 Thou on my head in every youth didst smile, And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee; On to the close, O Lord, abide with me! 5 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me! 6 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness; Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me! 7 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies; Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

Saviour, again to Thy dear name we raise

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #156 (1898) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, again to Thy dear name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; Once more we bless Thee ere our worship cease, Then, lowly bending, wait Thy word of peace. 2 Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way; With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day; Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon Thy name. 3 Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night, Turn Thou for us its darkness into light; From harm and danger keep Thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to Thee. 4 Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life, Our balm in sorrow and our stay in strife; Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.
