Being of beings, God of Love!
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 106 hymnals Topics: Self-Dedication Lyrics: 1. Being of beings, God of Love!
To Thee our hearts we raise;
Thine all-sustaining power we prove,
And gladly sing Thy praise.
2. Thine, only Thine, we pant to be;
Our sacrifice receive;
Made, and preserved, and saved by Thee,
To Thee ourselves we give.
3. Heavenward our every wish aspires:
For all Thy mercies' store,
The sole return Thy love requires
Is that we ask for more.
4. For more we ask; we open then
Our hearts to embrace Thy will;
Turn, and revive us, Lord, again,
With all Thy fulness fill.
5. Come, Holy Ghost, the Saviour's love
Shed in our hearts abroad!
So shall we ever live, and move,
And be, with Christ in God. Used With Tune: EAGLEY
Being of beings, God of Love!
Eternal Power, whose high abode
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 227 hymnals Topics: Self-Dedication Lyrics: 1. Eternal Power, whose high abode
Becomes the grandeur of a God,
Infinite lengths beyond the bounds
Where stars revolve their little rounds!
2. Thee, while the first archangel sings,
He hides his face behind his wings;
And ranks of shining thrones around
Fall worshipping, and spread the ground.
3. Lord, what shall earth and ashes do?
We would adore our Maker too!
From sin and dust to Thee we cry,
The Great, the Holy, and the High.
4. Earth from afar hath heard Thy fame,
And men have learned to lisp Thy name:
But, O! the glories of Thy mind
Leave all our soaring thoughts behind!
5. God is in heaven, and men below;
Be short our tunes, our words be few!
A solemn reverence checks our songs,
And praise sits silent on our tongues. Used With Tune: MARYTON
Eternal Power, whose high abode
Lo! God is here! let us adore
Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791; G. Tersteegen, 1697-1769 Appears in 291 hymnals Topics: Self-Dedication Lyrics: 1. Lo! God is here! let us adore,
And own how dreadful in this place!
Let all within us feel His power,
And silent bow before His face;
Who know His power, His grace who prove,
Serve Him with awe, with reverence love.
2. Lo! God is here! Him day and night
United choirs of angels sing;
To Him, enthroned above all height,
Heaven's host their noblest praises bring;
Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song,
Who praise Thee with a stammering tongue.
3. Gladly the toys of earth we leave,
Wealth, pleasure, fame, for Thee alone;
To Thee our will, soul, flesh, we give;
O take, O seal them for Thine own!
For Thou art God, Thou at the Lord;
Be Thou by all Thy works adored.
4. Being of beings! may our praise
Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill;
Still may we stand before Thy face,
Still hear and do Thy sovereign will;
To Thee may all our thoughts arise,
Ceaseless, accepted sacrifice.
5. As flowers their opening leaves display,
And glad drink in the solar fire,
So may we catch Thy every ray,
So may Thy influence us inspire;
Thou Beam of the eternal Beam,
Thou purging Fire, Thou quickening Flame. Used With Tune: STELLA

Jesus, Master, whom I serve
Author: Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836-1879 Appears in 39 hymnals Topics: Self-Dedication Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Master, whom I serve,
Though so feebly and so ill,
Strengthen hand and heart and nerve,
All Thy bidding to fulfill;
Open Thou mine eyes to see
All the work Thou hast for me.
2 Lord, Thou needest not, I know,
Service such as I can bring;
Yet I long to prove and show
Full allegiance to my King:
Thou art light and life to me,
Let me be a praise to Thee.
3 Jesus, Master, wilt Thou use
One who owes Thee more than all?
As Thou wilt, I would not choose,
Only let me hear Thy call:
Jesus, let me always be
In Thy service glad and free. Used With Tune: RATISBON

I come, Thou wounded Lamb of God
Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791 Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Self-Dedication Lyrics: 1 I come, Thou wounded Lamb of God,
To wash me in Thy cleansing blood;
To rest beneath Thy cross, then pain
Is sweet, and life or death is gain.
2 Take my poor heart, and let it be
For ever closed to all but Thee!
Seal Thou my breast, and let me wear
That pledge of love for ever there!
3 How blest are they who still abide
Close sheltered at Thy bleeding side!
Who life and strength from Thee derive,
And by Thee move, and in Thee live.
4 What are our works but sin and death,
Till Thou Thy quickening Spirit breathe?
Thou giv'st the power Thy grace to move:
O wondrous grace! O boundless love!
5 How can it be, Thou heavenly King,
That Thou shouldst us to glory bring?
Make slaves the partners of Thy throne,
Decked with a never-fading crown?
6 First-born of many brethren Thou!
To Thee, lo! all our souls we bow;
To Thee our hearts and hands we give:
Thine may we die, Thine may we live! Used With Tune: PENTECOST
I come, Thou wounded Lamb of God
