The Spirit's fruits are peace and love
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 The Spirit's fruits are peace and love,
And purity from heaven above;
Grace, meekness, gentleness, and joy,
With goodness, new-born lives employ.
2 The Spirit makes life's pathway plain,
Imparts the grace that will sustain;
And grace its work in those who show,
Who truly to the Spirit sow.
3 They that are Christ's have crucified
Their flesh with all its lusts and pride,
And seek in truth what they profess,
And walk the paths of holiness.
4 Lord, fill with grace our wayward heart,
Nor let Thy Spirit from us part;
O save us from still hidden sin,
And form our nature pure within:
5 That watchful, prayerful, sober, strong,
We grow the more as strifes prolong,
And of the Spirit reap at last
Eternal life, when strife is past.
The Spirit's fruits are peace and love
Father of all our mercies, Thou
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 28 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Father of all our mercies, Thou
In whom we move and live,
Hear us in heav'n, Thy dwelling, now,
And answer and forgive.
2 When harassed by ten thousand foes,
Our helplessness we feel,
O give the weary soul repose,
The wounded spirit heal.
3 When dire temptations gather round,
And threaten or allure,
By storm or calm, in Thee be found
A refuge strong and sure.
4 From day to day, O may we grow
In faith, in hope, and love,
And walk in holiness below
To holiness above.
Father of all our mercies, Thou
Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing,
What grateful tribute shall I bring,
That earth and heaven and all may see
My love to Him who died for me?
2 That off'ring, Lord, Thy word hath taught,
Nor be Thy new command forgot,
That, if their Master's death can move,
Thy servants should each other love.
Blest Jesus, while Thy grace I sing
God of grace, whose Word is sure
Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 God of grace, whose Word is sure,
Thou who keenest truth forever,
That my trust may rest secure
On this ground that wavers never,
Let Thy truth be dear to me,
That my soul may faithful be.
2 Ever true this word remains:
He who Christ to own refuses,
While he earthly comfort gains,
Everlasting comfort loses;
For the Savior will not own
Him before the Father's throne.
3 To the banner of the cross
I fidelity have plighted,
It would be my endless loss
If this solemn vow were slighted;
Therefore Jesus, none but He,
Shall my constant watchword be.
4 Let me, till my latest breath,
Christ confess with constant meekness;
Let me faithful be till death,
Strong in Him 'mid all my weakness;
Let me live in Him, and die
Heir of mansions in the sky.
God of grace, whose Word is sure
O bless the Lord, my soul!
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 260 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 O bless the Lord, my soul!
Let all within me join,
And aid my tongue to bless His name
Whose favors are divine.
2 'Tis He forgives thy sins;
'Tis He relieves thy pain;
'Tis He that heals thy sicknesses,
And gives thee strength again.
3 He crowns thy life with love,
When rescued from the grave;
He, that redeemed my souls from death,
Hath boundless power to save.
4 He fills the poor with good,
He gives the suff'rers rest;
The Lord hath justice for the proud,
And mercy for th'oppressed.
5 His wondrous works and ways
He made by Moses known;
But sent the world His truth and grace
By His beloved Son.
6 O bless the Lord, my soul!
Nor let this mercies lie
Forgotten in unthankfulness,
And without praises die.
O bless the Lord, my soul!
And shall we still be slaves
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 And shall we still be slaves,
And in our fetters lie,
When summoned by a voice divine
T'assert our liberty?
2 Did Christ the Saviour bleed,
Our freedom to obtain?
And shall we trample on His blood,
And glory in our chain?
3 Shall we go on to sin,
Because His grace abounds;
Or crucify the Lord again,
And open all His wounds?
4 Forbid it, mighty God!
Nor let it e'er be said
That those, for whom Thy Son has died,
In vice are lost and dead.
And shall we still be slaves
Hark! 'tis the Savior 's voice I hear
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Hark! 'tis the Saviour's voice I hear,
Come, trembling soul, dispel thy fear!
He saith, and who His Word can doubt?
He will in no wise cast you out!
2 Doth satan fill you with dismay,
And tell you, Christ will cast away?
It is a truth, why should you doubt?
He will in no wise cast you out!
3 Doth sin appear before your view
Of scarlet or of crimson hue?
If black as hell, why should you doubt?
He will in no wise cast you out!
4 The publican and dying thief
Applied to Christ, and found relief;
Nor need you entertain a doubt:
He will in no wise cast you out!
5 Approach your God, make no delay,
He waits to welcome you to-day;
His mercy try, nor longer doubt;
He will in no wise cast you out!
Hark! 'tis the Savior 's voice I hear
Behold a Stranger at the door!
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 635 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Behold a Stranger at the door!
He gently knocks-- has knocked before,
Has waited long-- is waiting still:
You treat no other friend so ill.
2 O lovely attitude, He stands
With melting heart and loaded hands!
O matchless kindness! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes!
3 But will He prove a friend indeed?
He will; the very friend you need;
The Friend of sinners--yes, 'tis He,
With garments dyed on Calvary.
4 Admit Him ere His anger burn;
His feet, departed, ne'er return;
Admit Him, or the hour's at hand
You'll at His door rejected stand.
Behold a Stranger at the door!
Blessed are the meek and contrite
Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Blessed are the meek and contrite,
Who in Jesus fall asleep;
Blessed where the saints forever
Their untiring vigils keep;
They are from their labors resting;
God has wiped away their tears;
They are dwelling in the kingdom,
Free from all their sins and fears.
2 Blessed are they, saith the Spirit,
They are free from toil and care;
They the kingdom do inherit,
That their Savior doth prepare;
They are free from tribulation,
And their robes are pure and white;
They have safely crossed the river,
And have reached the realms of light.
3 Blessed shall they be forever,
Endless is their peaceful rest,
And the works they have accomplished
Of their Lord are richly blest:
Blessed is the faithful witness
They have borne unto their Lord,
While they reap abounding harvests,
Promised in His faithful Word.
Blessed are the meek and contrite
There is an hour of hallowed peace
Author: William Bingham Tappan Appears in 148 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Hope of Resurrection and Future Life; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Hope of Resurrection and Future Life Lyrics: 1 There is an hour of hallowed peace,
For those with care oppress'd,
When sighs and sorr'wing tears shall cease,
And all be hushed to rest:
2 ‘Tis then the soul is freed from fears,
And doubts here here annoy:
Then they that oft have sown in tears
Shall reap again in joy.
3 There is a home of sweet repose,
Where storms assail no more;
The stream of endless pleasure flows
On that celestial shore:
4 There purity with love appears,
And bliss without alloy;
Then they that oft had sown in tears
Shall reap again in joy. Used With Tune: ST. AGNES (Durham)
There is an hour of hallowed peace
