Holy Lamb, who Thee confess

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: House of God Lyrics: 1 Holy Lamb, who Thee confess, Followers of Thy holiness, Thee they ever keep in view, Ever ask, "What shall we do?" Governed by Thy only will, All Thy words we would fulfil; Would in all Thy footsteps go, Walk as Jesus walked below. 2 While Thou didst on earth appear, Servant to Thy servants here, Mindful of Thy place above, All Thy life was prayer and love. Such our whole employment be, Works of faith and charity; Works of love on man bestowed, Secret intercourse with God. 3 Early in the temple met, Let us still our Saviour greet; Nightly to the mount repair, Join our praying Pattern there. There by wrestling faith obtain Power to work for God again, Power His image to retrieve, Power, like Thee, our Lord, to live. 4 Vessels, instruments of grace, Pass we thus our happy days 'Twixt the mount and multitude. Doing or receiving good; Glad to pray and labour on, Till our earthly course is run, Till, our sufferings ended, we Bow the head and die like Thee. Used With Tune: TICHFIELD

As pants the Hart for cooling Streams

Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Prayers When deprived ot the Opportunitys of attending in God's House Lyrics: 1 As pants the Hart for cooling Streams, When heated in the Chace; So longs my Soul, Oh GOD! for thee, And thy refreshing Grace: For thee my Soul doth pine, Thou Majesty divine! Oh when shall I behold thy Face, And drink of thy refreshing Grace? 2 Tears are my constant Food, while thus Insulting Foes upbraid, "Deluded Wretch, where's now thy GOD, "And where his promis'd Aid?" My Thoughts, with Grief, present The Days I did frequent Thy sacred House, my Vows to pay, 3 Why restless, why cast down, my Soul? Trust GOD, he will employ His Aid for thee, and change these Sighs To thankful Hymns of Joy. My Soul, tho' much distrest, Thy Name, Oh GOD, hath blest; Rememb'ring thee, and Sion still, From Jordan's Bank, and Hermon's Hill. 4 One Trouble calls another on, And bursting o'er my Head, Fall spouting down, till round my Soul, A roaring Sea is spread;' Like Wares together roll'd, Whose Rage is uncontroul'd, My growing Sorrows gather round, And still my Soul with Fear confound. 5 But when thy Presence, Lord of Life! (As I have thee implor'd,) Dispells at once this threat'ning Storm, And hath a Calm restor'd; My Soul shall bless thy Name, Thy Goodness I'll proclaim; To Thee I'll midnight Anthems raise, And daily strive to sing thy Praise. 6 God of my Strength! how long shall I Like one forgotten, mourn? Forlorn, forsaken, and expos'd To my Oppressor's Scorn; While thus my Foes upbraid, "Where's now thy promis'd Aid?" "Thy empty Boastings are in vain, Thy GOD will not relieve thy Pain." 11 Why restless, why cast down, my Soul? Trust GOD, and he'll employ His Aid for thee, and change these Sighs, To thankful Hymns of Joy: If thou wilt yet depend, On GOD, thy only Friend; The Praise of him thou yet shalt sing, Who is thy Health's eternal Spring.
