no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies,
but take the dimness of my soul away.

all, all your own, soul, heart and strength and mind?
I see your cross: there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame,
the baptism of the heaven-descended dove,
my heart an altar and your love the flame. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.

in closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong.

far down the future's broadening way,
In peace that only you can give,
with you, O Savior, let me live. Used With Tune: MARYTON

Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Franck Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Appears in 136 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 7 Year C Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
truest friend to me;
long my heart hath panted,
till it well-nigh fainted,
thirsting after thee.
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb,
I will suffer naught to hide thee,
ask for naught beside thee.
2 In thine arms I rest me;
foes who would molest me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
every heart be quaking,
God dispels our fear;
sin and hell in conflict fell
with their heaviest storms assail us:
Jesus will not fail us.
3 Hence, all thoughts of sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in:
those who love the Father,
though the storms may gather,
still have peace within;
yea, whate'er we here must bear,
still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure! Used With Tune: JESU, MEINE FREUDE
Jesus, Priceless Treasure
