O Thou, from whom all goodness flows

Author: Thomas Haweis Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 420 hymnals Topics: Visitation Lyrics: O Thou, from whom all goodness flows, I lift my heart to thee; In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes, Dear Lord, remember me. When on my aching, burdened heart My sins lie heavily, Thy pardon grant, thy peace impart: In love, remember me. When trials sore obstruct my way, And ills I cannot flee, O let my strength be as my day! For good, remember me. If worn with pain, disease, and grief This feeble frame should be, Grant patience, rest, and kind relief: Hear and remember me. And O when in the hour of death I own thy just decree, Be this the prayer of my last breath, Dear Lord, remember me! Amen. Used With Tune: MANOAH

I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be

Author: Adelaide A. Procter Meter: 10.4.10.4 Appears in 131 hymnals Topics: Visitation Lyrics: I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be A pleasant road; I do not ask that thou wouldst take from me Aught of its load. I do not ask that flowers should always spring Beneath my feet; I know too well the poison and the sting Of things too sweet. For one thing only, Lord, dear Lord, I plead: Lead me aright Though strength should falter and though heart should bleed, Through peace to light. I do not ask, O Lord, that thou shouldst shed Full radiance here Give but a ray of peace, that I may tread Without a fear. I do not ask my cross to understand, My way to see; Better in darkness just to feel thy hand, And follow thee. 352 Joy is like restless day; but peace divine Like quiet night. Lead me, O Lord, till perfect day shall shine, Through peace to light. Amen. Used With Tune: BURFORD

Whate'er events betide, Thy will they all perform: Safe in Thy breast my head I hide, Nor fear the coming storm. Let good or ill befall, It must be good for me; Secure in having Thee in all, Of having all in Thee. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 31 Used With Tune: ST. MICHAEL

Lord, in this Thy mercy's day

Author: Isaac Williams Meter: 7.7.7 Appears in 169 hymnals Topics: Visitation Lyrics: Lord, in this thy mercy's day, Ere the time shall pass away On our knees we fall and pray. Holy Jesus, grant us tears, Fill us with heart-searching fears, Ere that day of doom appears. Lord, on us thy Spirit pour, Kneeling lowly at thy door, Ere it close for evermore. By thy night of agony, By thy supplicating cry, By thy willingness to die, By thy tears of bitter woe For Jerusalem below, Let us not thy love forego. Judge and Savior of our race, Grant us, when we see thy face, With thy ransomed ones a place. On thy love we rest alone And that love shall then be known By the pardoned, round thy throne. Amen.

Jesus, my Saviour, look on me

Author: Charlotte Elliott Meter: 8.8.8.4 Appears in 128 hymnals Topics: Visitation Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Saviour! look on me, For I am weary and opprest; I come to cast myself on Thee: Thou art my Rest. 2 Look down on me, for I am weak, I feel the toilsome journey's length; Thine aid Omnipotent I seek: Thou art my Strength. 3 I am bewildered on my way, Dark and tempestuous is the night; O send thou forth some cheering ray! Thou art my Light. 4 When Satan flings his fiery darts, I look to Thee; my terrors cease; Thy cross a hiding-place imparts: Thou art my Peace. 5 Standing alone on Jordan's brink, In that tremendous, latest strife, Thou wilt not suffer me to sink: Thou art my Life. 6 Thou wilt my every want supply E'en to the end, whate'er befall; Through life, in death eternally, Thou art my All.
