our hopes and fears, our joy and strife.

we take them humbly from your hand;
put these your gifts to higher use:
the holy meal that you command. Used With Tune: DISTRESS

O Jesus, Lord and Savior,
I give myself to you,

my heart shall be your throne:
my life I give, henceforth to live,
O Christ, for you alone.

bearing on Calvary my sin and disgrace:
such love constrains me to answer his call,
follow his leading, and give him my all. Refrain

seeking the lost ones he died to redeem,
bringing the weary to find rest in him. Refrain

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Author: John E. Bode Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 647 hymnals Topics: Dedication and Offering; Offering Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and ever near me,
my Master and my Friend.
I shall not fear the battle
if you are by my side,
nor wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.
2 O let me feel you near me;
the world is ever near:
I see the sights that dazzle,
the tempting sounds I hear.
My foes are ever near me,
around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer
and shield my soul from sin!
3 O let me hear you speaking
in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will.
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
and speak to make me listen,
O Guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you
that where you are in glory
your servants shall be too.
O guide me, call me, draw me,
uphold me to the end,
when you in glory take me,
my Savior and my Friend.

O Worship the King All-glorious Above
Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,196 hymnals Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Offering First Line: O worship the King, all-glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, your power has founded of old;
Established it fast by a changeless decree,
And round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Your bountiful care, what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
5 We children of dust are feeble and frail,
In you do we trust, nor find you to fail;
Your mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 104 Used With Tune: LYONS

Brightest and Best
Author: Reginald Hebee Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Appears in 928 hymnals Topics: Offering First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our pathway, and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Shall we give Jesus our costly devotion,
fragrance of Edom, and off'rings divine,
gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?
3 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts Jesus' favor secure.
Richer by far is the heart’s adoration.
Dearer to God are the gifts of the poor.
4 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our pathway, and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
Used With Tune: STAR IN THE EAST

'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said
Author: C. W. Everest (1814-1877) Appears in 304 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 18 The Offering of Life Lyrics: 1 'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said,
'if you would my disciple be;
deny yourself, forsake the world,
and humbly follow after me.'
2 Take up your cross — let not its weight
fill your weak soul with vain alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and brace your heart, and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, nor heed the shame,
nor let your foolish pride rebel;
the Lord for you the cross endured
to save your soul from death and hell.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
and calmly every danger brave;
he guides us to a better home,
and leads to conquest of the grave.
5 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only they who bear the cross
may hope to win the glorious crown. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: BRESLAU
'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said
