O God of life, in whom we live
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #46 (1907) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
O God of life, in whom we live,
The bounties of Thy favour give,
And teach our souls to soar;
That, at the source of every good,
Our life may find its needful food,
And live for evermore.
II
O Lord of mercy, by whose grace
The sinner seeks the Father’s face,
And finds a welcome there;
When fears the trembling soul distress,
And sins the aching heart oppress,
O Lord of mercy, spare.
III
And say to Him who loves Thee best,
And sent Thee to a world distressed,
His blessing to impart,—
“Hear Thou the sinner’s mournful cries,
Accept his preferred sacrifice,
A broken, contrite heart.”
IV
Blest Spirit, who in holy flame,
At Pentecost all powerful came,—
Our sin-stained souls renew;
And by Thine all-consuming fire,
Consume our sin and vile desire,
And make us pure and true.
V
To God who dwells in highest heaven,
Be endless praise and glory given,—
And praise to Christ the Son.
And to the Holy Spirit blest,
For comfort and for gifts the best,—
Immortal Three in One.

O God of life, in whom we live
By Thine own hand the gift was given
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #47 (1907) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
By Thine own hand the gift was given
Of wealth, and hope of highest heaven;
But, fool at heart, Thy grace was spurned,
And from my Father’s house I turned.
II
O, hear my plaint, I cry to Thee;
Be pitiful, and pardon me,
For I have sinned; O, give me grace
To seek in penitence Thy face.
III
Yea, I repent in anguish low;
Give me again Thy love to know;
And if a servant’s place remain,
Take me in mercy back again.

The Shepherd of Israel

The Shepherd of Israel
Lord, Thou art good and kind
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #48 (1907) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
Lord, Thou art good and kind,
And full of tender grace;
Now make Thy countenance to shine,
And let me see Thy face.
II
For O, my heart is sad,
Because my sin I know;
And though I strive, I fail,
And still ungodly grow.
III
And all my aims are lost,
And all my striving vain,—
Wilt Thou refresh my soul,
And visit me again?
IV
’Tis morning when the sun
Upon the mountain glows;
’Tis evening when the shade
Upon the valleys grows;
V
And when Thy face I see,
’Tis morning in my soul;
But when Thou turn’st away,
The evening shadows roll.
VI
And night comes on apace,
And all forlorn I sigh;—
O, bid the morning dawn,
Look on me lest I die.
VII
O, Thou art good and kind,
And full of tender grace;
Now make Thy countenance to shine,
And let me see Thy face.

O Lord of Life, when mortals call
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #49 (1907) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
O Lord of Life, when mortals call,
And freedom seek from earthly thrall,
Hear Thou in heaven and save us all,
In mercy, Lord.
II
O Full of Mercy, when we groan,
Because of sin our spirits own,
Hear, who for sinners didst atone,
In mercy, Lord.
III
O Full of Pity, when we bear
To Thy blest feet our cankering care,
Take of our weary load a share,
In mercy, Lord.
IV
O Full of Grace! when sufferers tell
The grief Thou knowest, Lord, so well,
Come, with the broken-hearted dwell,
In mercy, Lord.
V
When, lured by hope, our spirits rise
To where Thou beckonest from the skies;
Then, be eternal life the prize,
In mercy, Lord.

O Lord of Life, when mortals call
I wandered sore distressed
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #50 (1907) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
I wandered sore distressed,
All weary and forlorn;
I had no place to rest,
Of all my pleasures shorn,—
My thirsting spirit sighed,
And in the desert cried.
II
The Shepherd heard my cry,
Who came His flock to find,
And drew in mercy nigh,
For He is wondrous kind;
His winning voice awoke
My spirit as He spoke.
III
He bade my wandering cease,
And gave my heart a home,
That, from the bliss of peace,
I might no longer roam;—
He gave me hope for fears,
And lasting joy for tears.

I wandered sore distressed
God sent me to the desert wild
Author: John Brownlie Hymnal: Hymns from the East #51 (1907) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Aspirations Lyrics:
I
God sent me to the desert wild,
Where all is parched with endless drought,
For I had grown a wayward child,
And now my sin had found me out;—
He sent me to the desert drear,
And, ah! my soul was charged with fear.
II
I wandered where the brooks were dry,
While memory wove a dismal song,
And to my God I raised my cry,
And sang my dirge the whole day long;—
For I was in the desert drear,
And, ah! my soul was charged with fear.
III
The God of grace His comfort sent,
And soon the desert blossomed fair,
While round my path, where’er I went,
Sweet flowers poured forth their odours rare;—
He sent me to a desert drear,
Now flowers and luscious fruits appear.
IV
O God, when by the path of sin,
We reach the land where famine reigns;
And dread possesses all within,
And all around are woes and pains;—
Then make the world a desert rare,
Of joys upspringing everywhere.

Witness-Bearing and Grateful Praise
Hymnal: The Psalter #51 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Aspirations For Heaven First Line: Amid the thronging worshipers Lyrics: 1 Amid the thronging worshipers
Jehovah will I bless;
Before my brethren, gathered here
His Name will I confess.
Come, praise Him, ye that fear the Lord,
Ye children of His grace;
With rev'rence sound His glories forth
And bow before His face.
2 The burden of the sorrowful
The Lord will not despise;
He has not turned from those that mourn,
He hearkens to their cries.
His goodness makes me join the throng
Where saints His praise proclaim,
And there will I fulfill my vows
'Mid those who fear His Name.
3 He feeds with good the humble soul
And satisfies the meek,
And they shall live and praise the Lord
Who for His mercy seek.
The ends of all the earth take tho't,
The nations seek the Lord;
They worship Him, the King of kings,
In earth and heav'n adored. Scripture: Psalm 22 Languages: English Tune Title: BOVINA
