Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul

Author: Anne Steele, 1716-1778 Appears in 363 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:11-14 Lyrics: 1 Dear refuge of my weary soul, on Thee when sorrows rise; on Thee, when waves of trouble roll, my fainting hope relies. To Thee I tell each rising grief, for Thou alone can heal; Thy Word can bring a sweet relief, for ev'ry pain I feel. 2 But oh! when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call Thee mine; the springs of comfort seem to fail, and all my hopes decline. Yet gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; and still my soul would cleave to Thee, though prostrate in the dust. 3 Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face? and shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sov'reign grace be deaf when I complain? No, still the ear of sov'reign grace attends the mourner's prayer; Oh, may I ever find access to breath my sorrows there. 4 Thy mercy seat is open still, here let my soul retreat; with humble hope attend Thy will, and wait beneath Thy feet. Thy mercy seat is open still, here let my soul retreat; with humble hope attend Thy will, and wait beneath Thy feet. Topics: The Holy Spirit Comfort Used With Tune: DEAR REFUGE

Hear me, for Thy Spirit pleads; Hear, for Jesus intercedes. 5 While I hearken to Thy Law, Fill my soul with humble awe Till Thy Gospel bring to me Life and immortality. 6 While Thy ministers proclaim Peace and pardon in Thy name, Through their voice, by faith, may I Hear Thee speaking from the sky. 7 From Thy house when I return, May my heart within me burn, And at evening let me say, "I have walked with God today."

Where high the heavenly temple stands

Author: Michael Bruce, 1746-67 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 206 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:11-14 Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands, the house of God not made with hands, a great High Priest our nature wears, the Saviour of the world appears. 2 He who for us our surety stood, and poured on earth his precious blood, pursues in heaven his plan of grace, the Saviour of the human race. 3 Though now ascended up on high, he bends on earth a brother's eye; partaker of the human name, he knows the frailty of our frame. 4 Our fellow-sufferer yet retains a fellow-feeling of our pains, and still remembers in the skies his tears, his agonies and cries. 5 In every pain that rends the heart the Man of Sorrows has a part; he sympathizes with our grief, and to the sufferer sends relief. 6 With boldness, therefore, at God's throne let us make all our sorrows known, and ask the aid of heavenly power to help us in the evil hour.

Health this fountain will restore; They that drink shall thirst no more. 4 They that drink shall live forever; 'Tis a soul-renewing flood.

Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed, paschal victim, paschal bread; with sincerity and love eat we manna from above. 3 Mighty victim from on high, hell's fierce powers beneath thee lie; death is broken in the fight, thou has brought us life and light. Now no more can death appal, now no more the grave enthral! Thou has opened paradise, and in thee thy saints shall rise. 4 This, our gift of Easter joy, sin alone can now destroy; from sin's power do thou set free souls new-born, O Lord, in thee. Hymns of glory, songs of praise, Father, unto thee we raise; risen Lord, all praise to thee, with the Spirit ever be.

Though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; lightnings flash and thunders crash: yet, though sin and hell assail me, Jesus will not fail me. 3 Hence, all fears and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in: God, who dearly loves us, from all trial saves us; gives sweet peace within; I have borne this worldly scorn; still in thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure!
