To God be the glory, a Saviour is mine

Author: Charles Coller (1863-1935) Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To God be the glory, a Saviour is mine, Whose power is almighty, whose grace is divine; My heart he hath cleansed, he is dwelling within, So wondrously saving from sinning and sin. 2 O wonder of wonders, to God be the praise, I joy in his will, I delight in his ways! And through every conflict, without and within, He saves me and keeps me from sinning and sin. 3 No longer in bondage, my freedom I’ll use My Master to serve in the way he shall choose; To work or to witness, to go or remain, His smile of approval my infinite gain. 4 Earth’s pleasures and treasures no longer allure, My spirit aspires to the things which endure; To walk with my Saviour in garments of white, My highest ambition, my constant delight. 5 The world overcoming by limitless grace, I worship the Lord in the light of his face; So with him communing, like him I shall grow, And life everlasting enjoy here below.

I dwell in thy abiding care

Author: Brindley Boon Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Weaver divine, thy matchless skill Lyrics: 1 Weaver divine, thy matchless skill Hath planned the pattern of my ways; Within the fabric of thy will I yield my residue of days. Refrain: I dwell in thy abiding care, And find my soul’s refreshment there; Content to trust my way to thee Thy over-ruling plan I see. 2 Sombre the colours are and gay, Varied the workings of thy hand; I would not wish to know the way, Nor seek thy will to understand. 3 Human design may cause me pain, And test my faith through doubt and fear, Grant me to feel thy touch again, Thy reassuring voice to hear. 4 Christ of the loom, thy loving hand Doth thread the pattern for my good; I too would weave at thy command Until thy will be understood.

What a friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Medlicott Scriven (1819-86) Appears in 1,705 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! 2 Have we trials and temptations? I there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged: Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness: Take it to the Lord in prayer. 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our refuge: Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In his arms he’ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Topics: Means of grace Prayer

Author: Albert Orsborn (1886-1967) Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: When shall I come unto the healing waters Lyrics: 1 When shall I come unto the healing waters? Lifting my heart, I cry to thee my prayer. Spirit of peace, my Comforter and healer, In whom my springs are found, let my soul meet thee there. Refrain: From a hill I know, Healing waters flow; O rise, Immanuel’s tide, And my soul overflow! 2 Wash from my hands the dust of earthly striving; Take from my mind the stress of secret fear; Cleanse thou the wounds from all but thee far hidden, And when the waters flow let my healing appear. 3 Light, life and love are in that healing fountain, All I require to cleanse me and restore; Flow through my soul, redeem its desert places, And make a garden there for the Lord I adore.

New every morning is the love

Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Appears in 362 hymnals Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove, Through sleep and darkness safely brought, Restored to life and power and thought. 2 If on our daily course our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still of countless price God will provide for sacrifice. 3 Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be As more of Heaven in each we see; Some softening gleam of love and prayer Shall dawn on every cross and care. 4 The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we ought to ask; Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God. 5 Only, O Lord, in thy great love, Fit us for perfect rest above; And help us, this and every day, To live more nearly as we pray.

Everywhere, everywhere, who'll fight for the Lord everywhere

Author: George Scott Railton (1849-1913) Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: Who'll fight for the Lord everywhere Lyrics: 1 Who'll fight for the Lord everywhere, Till we march by the river of light, Where the Lamb leads his hosts free from care, All robed in their garments of white? Refrain: Everywhere, everywhere, who’ll fight for the Lord everywhere? 2 O think of the sin everywhere, And how grievous man’s darkness and loss, Of the burden of shame he must bear Till, repentant, he kneels at the cross. 3 O Lord, lead us forth everywhere Till each sin-burdened soul knows thy rest, Till thy name and thy nature they share, And with peace all the nations are blessèd. 4 I’ll fight for the Lord everywhere, For the need of the lost I can see; Many dying in sin everywhere, My Jesus alone can set free.
