O when shall my soul find her rest

Author: Bramwell Booth (1856-1929) Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O when shall my soul find her rest, My strugglings and wrestlings be o’er? My heart, by my Saviour possessed, Be fearing and sinning no more? 2 Now search me, and try me, O Lord! Now Jesus, give ear to my cry! See! helpless I cling to thy word, My soul to my Saviour draws nigh. 3 My idols I cast at thy feet, My all I return thee, who gave; This moment the work is complete, For thou art almighty to save! 4 O Saviour, I dare to believe, Thy blood for my cleansing I see; And, asking in faith, I receive Salvation, full, present and free. 5 O Lord, I shall now comprehend Thy mercy so high and so deep; And long shall my praises ascend, For thou art almighty to keep!

O for a heart whiter than snow

Author: Eliza Edmunds Hewitt (1851-1920) Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge First Line: O for a heart that is whiter than snow Lyrics: 1 O for a heart that is whiter than snow, Kept, ever kept ‘neath the life-giving flow, Cleansed from all evil, self-seeking and pride, Kept pure and holy by Calvary’s tide! Refrain: O for a heart whiter than snow! Saviour divine, to whom else shall go? Thou who didst die, loving me so, Give me a heart that is whiter than snow. 2 O for a heart that is whiter than snow, Calm in the peace that he loves to bestow, Daily refreshed by the heavenly dews, Ready for service whene’er he shall choose! 3 O for a heart that is whiter than snow, With the pure flame of the Spirit aglow, Filled with the love that is true and sincere, Love that is able to banish all fear! 4 O for a heart that is whiter than snow, Then in his grace and his knowledge to grow, Growing like him who my pattern shall be, Till in his beauty my King I shall see!

Refrain: O come to my heart, Lord Jesus; There is room in my heart for thee. 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great redeemer’s throne; Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone. 3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From him that dwells within. 4 A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine; Perfect and right, and pure and good, A copy, Lord, of thine. 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Come quickly from above; Write thy new name upon my heart, Thy new best name of love.

O for a humbler walk with God

Author: Edward Harland (1810-90) Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The life of holiness Challenge Lyrics: 1 O for a humbler walk with God! Lord, bend this stubborn heart of mine; Subdue each rising, rebel thought, And all my will conform to thine. 2 O for a holier walk with God! A heart from all pollution free; Expel, O Lord, each sinful love, And fill my soul with love to thee. 3 O for a nearer walk with God! Lord, turn my wandering heart to thee; Help me to live by faith in him Who lived and died and rose for me. 4 Lord, send thy Spirit from above With light and love and power divine; And by his all-constraining grace Make me and keep me ever thine.
