Hast thou not known?
Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 1,218 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers;
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 In vain we tune our formal songs,
In vain we strive to rise;
Hosannas languish on our tongues,
And our devotion dies.
3 And shall we then for ever live
At this poor dying rate?
Our love so faint, so cold to Thee,
And Thine to us so great!
4 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers;
Come, shed abroad the Saviour's love,
And that shall kindle ours.

Dear Saviour, we would know thy love
Author: Anon. Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Dear Saviour, we would know thy love
Which yet no measure knows;
For us it led thee once to die;
From thence salvation flows.
2 Fain would we strike the golden harp,
And wear the promised crown,
And at thy feet, while bending low,
Would sing what grace hath done.
3 Then leave us not in this dark world,
As strangers long to roam;
Come, Lord, and take us to thyself,
Come, Jesus, quickly come! Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Used With Tune: ABRIDGE

When Bending O'er The Brink Of Life
Author: William B. Collyer Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 95 hymnals First Line: When bending o’er the brink of life Lyrics: 1 When bending o’er the brink of life,
My trembling soul shall stand;
I wait to pass death’s awful flood,
Great God, at Thy command!
2 When weeping friends surround my bed,
And close my sightless eyes,
When shattered by the weight of years
This broken body lies—
3 When every long loved scene of life
Stands ready to depart,
When that last sigh which shakes the frame
Shall rend this bursting heart—
4 O, Thou great source of joy supreme,
Whose arm alone can save,
Dispel the darkness that surrounds
The entrance to the grave!
5 Lay Thy supporting gentle hand
Beneath my sinking head;
And with a ray of love divine,
Illume my dying bed!
6 I lean on Thy dear faithful breast
As I resign my breath!
And in Thy fond embraces, lose
The bitterness of death! Used With Tune: ABRIDGE Text Sources: Hymns Partly Collected and Partly Original (London: 1812)

Our fields with plenteousness.

And let our hills and valleys shout
The songs of liberty.
