Make me teachable and mild,

Let me as a child receive;
What to-morrow may betide,
Calmly to thy wisdom leave:
'Tis enough that thou wilt care;
Why should I the burden bear?

On a care beyond his own,
Knows he's neither strong nor wise,
Fears to stir a step alone;--
Let me thus with thee abide,
As my Father, Guard, and Guide. Scripture: Psalm 131:1 Used With Tune: GUIDE

"Eben-ezer"
Author: Robert Robinson Appears in 2,233 hymnals Topics: Church Ordinances of; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Dependence On Grace First Line: Come, thou Fount of every blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise;
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount--I'm fixed upon it!--
Mount of thy redeeming love.
2 Here I'll raise mine Eben-ezer;
Hither by thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed his precious blood.
3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to thee;
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it;
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart; oh, take and seal it;
Seal it for thy courts above.
Scripture: Ephesians 1:13 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined,
In whom no darkness is.
3 Walk in the light! and ev'n the tomb
No fearful shade shall wear;
Glory shall chase away its gloom,
For Christ hath conquered there.
4 Walk in the light! and thou shalt see
Thy path, though thorny, bright,
For God by grace shall dwell in thee,
And God himself is light. Scripture: Ephesians 5:8 Used With Tune: VALENTIA

Faith

And saves me from its snares;
Its aid, in every duty, brings,
And softens all my cares.
2 The wounded conscience knows its power
The healing balm to give;
That balm the saddest heart can cheer;
And make the dying live.
3 Wide it unvails celestial worlds,
Where deathless pleasures reign;
And bids me seek my portion there,
Nor bids me seek in vain.
4 It shows the precious promise sealed
With the Redeemer's blood;
And helps my feeble hope to rest
Upon a faithful God.
5 There--there unshaken would I rest,
Till this frail body dies;
And then, on faith's triumphant wings,
To endless glory rise. Used With Tune: VALENTIA
