Thou, whose unmeasured temple stands
O Jesus, King most wonderful
Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #749b (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, King most wonderful;
thou conqueror renowned,
thou sweetness most ineffable,
in whom all joys are found!
2 When once thou visitest the heart,
then truth begins to shine,
then earthly vanities depart,
then kindles love divine.
3 O Jesus, light of all below!
Thou fount of living fire,
surpassing all the joys we know,
and all we can desire:
4 Jesus, may all confess thy name,
thy wondrous love adore;
and, seeking thee, themselves inflame
to seek thee more and more.
5 Thee may our tongues for ever bless,
thee may we love alone,
and ever in our lives express
the image of thine own.
6 Abide with us, and let thy light
shine, Lord, on every heart;
dispel the darkness of our night,
and joy to all impart.

the Father's only Son,
all might, and praise, and glory be,

O Jesus, King most wonderful
Prayer is the soul's sincere desire
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #660 (1997) Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
uttered or unexpressed,
the motion of a hidden fire,
that trembles in the breast.
2 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
that infant lips can try,
prayer the sublimest strains that reach
the Majesty on high.
3 Prayer is the contrite sinners' voice,
returning to the way,
while angel's in their songs rejoice,
and cry, "Behold, they pray."
4 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
the Christian's native air;
our watchword at the gates of death,
we enter heaven with prayer.
5 O thou, by whom we come to God,
the Life, the Truth, the Way,
the path of prayer thyself hast trod:
Lord, teach us how to pray. Topics: Jesus Christ Way, Truth, Life; One Life in Christ Discipleship; Prayer / Prayers / Poems Scripture: Psalm 8:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD 66 (METZLER)

My God thy covenant of love
Far from the world, O Lord, I flee
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Church Book #533 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Far from the world, O Lord, I flee,
From strife and tumult far;
From scenes where Satan wages still
His most successful war.
2 The calm retreat, the silent shade,
With prayer and praise agree;
And seem by Thy sweet bounty made
For those who follow Thee.
3 There, if Thy Spirit touch the soul,
And grace her mean abode,
O with what peace, and joy, and love,
She communes with her God!
4 There, like the nightingale, she pours
Her solitary lays;
Nor asks a witness of her song,
Nor thirsts for human praise.
5 Author and Guardian of my life,
Sweet Source of light divine,
And, all harmonious names in one,
My Saviour,--Thou art mine!
6 What thanks I owe Thee, and what love,
A boundless, endless store,
Shall echo through the realms above
When time shall be no more! Topics: Private Devotion Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD, 66

Jesus! the very thought of Thee
Author: Bernard of Clairvaux; Edward Caswall Hymnal: Church Book #224 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus! the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills the breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest.
2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest Name,
O Saviour of mankind!
3 O Hope of every contrite heart,
O Joy of all the meek!
To those who fall, how kind Thou art,
How good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? ah, this
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The Love of Jesus, what it is,
None but His loved ones know.

'Tis not this fleshly robe alone
Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: Church Book #234 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 'Tis not this fleshly robe alone
Shall link us, Lord, to Thee;
Not always in the tear and groan
Shall the dear kindred be.

Who one with us wouldst be,
Wilt lift us to Thy heavenly home,
Wilt make us one with Thee.
3 Our earthly garments thou hast worn,
And we Thy robes shall wear;
Our mortal burdens Thou hast borne,
And we Thy bliss may bear!
4 O mighty grace, our life to live,
To make our earth divine;
O mighty grace, Thy heaven to give,
And lift our life to Thine!

By Thee received and given:
Thou tookest woe and death from us,
And we receive Thy heaven! Topics: Communion with Christ; The Image of the Heavenly Christ; Sundays in Lent; Easter Season, Thrid Sunday; Easter Season, Fourth Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD, 66
