O for a humbler walk with God
Author: Edward Harland (1810-90) Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O for a humbler walk with God!
Lord, bend this stubborn heart of mine;
Subdue each rising, rebel thought,
And all my will conform to thine.
2 O for a holier walk with God!
A heart from all pollution free;
Expel, O Lord, each sinful love,
And fill my soul with love to thee.
3 O for a nearer walk with God!
Lord, turn my wandering heart to thee;
Help me to live by faith in him
Who lived and died and rose for me.
4 Lord, send thy Spirit from above
With light and love and power divine;
And by his all-constraining grace
Make me and keep me ever thine.
O for a humbler walk with God
O God of light, O God of love
Author: Arthur Sydney Booth-Clibborn (1854-1938) Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O God of light, O God of love,
Shine on my soul from Heaven above!
Let sin appear in thy pure ray
As black as on the judgment day;
Let perfect love apply the test,
And all that’s wrong make manifest.
2 O take thy plummet and thy line,
Apply them to this heart of mine,
And thus reveal each crooked place
By contrast with true righteousness!
Let holy truth condemn each sham;
Show what thou art, and what I am.
3 O smite and spare not, faithful God!
A Father’s hand still holds the rod;
O make my sin-stained conscience smart,
And write thy law upon my heart
So plainly, that my will shall bow
In full surrender, here and now!
4 Work on in me thy perfect will,
In me thy promise, Lord, fulfil;
O make me quick to fight for thee,
And set my soul at liberty!
My soul can rest in nothing less
Than in a spotless holiness.
O God of light, O God of love
O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine
Author: William Booth (1829-1912) Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine,
When shall I know and feel thee mine
Without a doubt or fear?
With anxious, longing thirst I come
To beg thee make my heart thy home,
And keep me holy here.
2 What is there that I will not give
To have thee ever with me live
A conquering Christ within?
My life, my all, this blessèd day
Down at thy precious feet I lay,
To be redeemed from sin.
3 O God of pentecostal fame,
Can I not have that living flame
Burning where’er I go?
From sin and self and shame set free,
Can I not lead lost souls to thee,
And conquer every foe?
4 I can, I do just now believe,
I do the heavenly grace receive,
The Spirit makes me clean.
Christ takes the whole of my poor heart,
No sin shall ever from me part
My Lord who reigns supreme.
O Jesus, Saviour, Christ divine
At thy feet I fall
Author: Catherine Booth-Clibborn (1858-1955) Appears in 17 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: O Lamb of God, thou wonderful sin-bearer Lyrics: 1 O Lamb of God, thou wonderful sin-bearer,
Hard after thee my soul doth follow on;
As pants the hart for streams in desert dreary,
So pants my soul for thee, O thou life-giving one.
Refrain:
At thy feet I fall,
Yield thee up my all,
To suffer, live or die for my Lord crucified.
2 I mourn, I mourn the sin that drove thee from me,
And blackest darkness brought into my soul;
Now I renounce the cursed thing that hindered,
And come once more to thee to be made fully whole.
3 Descend the heavens, thou whom my soul adoreth!
Exchange thy throne for my poor longing heart.
For thee, for thee I watch as for the morning;
No rest, no joy I find when from thee I’m apart.
4 Come, Holy Ghost, thy mighty aid bestowing!
Destroy the works of sin, the self, the pride;
Burn, burn in me, my idols overthrowing;
Prepare my heart for him, for my Lord crucified.
At thy feet I fall
I come to thee with quiet mind
Author: Catherine Baird (1896-1984) Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: O love, revealed on earth in Christ

From thee no longer can I stay;
Break every chain, now set me free,
Take all my sins away.
Refrain:
Take all my sins away,
Take all my sins away;
O spotless Lamb, I come to thee,
Take all my sins away.
2 My hungry soul cries out for thee,
Come and for ever seal my breast;
To thy dear arms at last I flee,
There only can I rest.
3 Weary I am of inbred sin,
O wilt thou not my soul release?
Enter and speak me pure within,
Give me thy perfect peace.
4 I plunge beneath thy precious blood,
My hand in faith takes hold of thee;
Thy promises just now I claim,
Thou art enough for me.
Take all my sins away
Doing the will of God
Author: Edward Henry Joy (1871-1949) Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: O that in me the mind of Christ Lyrics: 1 O that in me the mind of Christ
A fixed abiding-place may find,
That I may know the will of God,
And live in him for lost mankind.
Refrain:
Doing the will of God,
Doing the will of God,
The best thing I know in this world below
Is doing the will of God.
2 The suffering servant he became,
Yea mare; in loneliness and lass
He bare for me in grief and shame,
A crown of thorns, a heavy cross.
3 O that in me this mind might be,
The will of Gad be all my joy,
Prepared with him to go or stay,
My chief delight his sweet employ.
4 More than all else I would became
The servant of my servant-Lord;
My highest glory his reproach,
To do his will my best reward.
Doing the will of God

The darkness shineth as the light,
Search, prove my heart, it pants for thee;
O burst these bonds and set it free!
2 Wash out its stain, refine its dross,
Nail my affections to the cross:
Hallow each thought, let all within
Be clean, as thou, my Lord, art clean.
3 Saviour, where’er thy steps I see,
Dauntless, untired, I’ll follow thee;
O let thy hand support me still
And lead me to thy holy hill!
4 If rough and thorny be the way,
My strength proportion to my day,
Till toil and grief and pain shall cease,
Where all is calm and joy and peace.

Be fearing and sinning no more?

Now Jesus, give ear to my cry!
See! helpless I cling to thy word,
My soul to my Saviour draws nigh.
3 My idols I cast at thy feet,
My all I return thee, who gave;
This moment the work is complete,
For thou art almighty to save!
4 O Saviour, I dare to believe,
Thy blood for my cleansing I see;
And, asking in faith, I receive
Salvation, full, present and free.
5 O Lord, I shall now comprehend
Thy mercy so high and so deep;
And long shall my praises ascend,
For thou art almighty to keep!
O when shall my soul find her rest
