seek now this soul of mine,
and visit it with your own ardour glowing.

and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let your glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, my onward path illuming.
3 And so the yearning strong
with which the soul will long
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,
till Love create the place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes its dwelling. Used With Tune: DOWN AMPNEY

there is joy for all the members

from a love so true and deep?

and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind. Used With Tune: GOTT WILL'S MACHEN

still guides, O Christ, to you.

a lamp of purest gold,
to bear before the nations
your true light as of old;

by this their path to trace,

fill your weak soul with vain alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and brace your heart, and nerve your arm.

nor let your foolish pride rebel;
the Lord for you the cross endured
to save your soul from death and hell.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
and calmly every danger brave;
he guides us to a better home,
and leads to conquest of the grave.
5 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only they who bear the cross
may hope to win the glorious crown. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: BRESLAU

he sets the pris'ner free;

his blood can make the foulest clean;
his blood availed for me,

his blood availed for me.

new life the dead receive,
new life the dead receive,
the mournful broken hearts rejoice,
the humble poor believe,
the humble poor believe.

the bliss till now unknown.

Christ Jesus, found in thee.

I yearned for them, not thee;
but while I passed my Saviour by,
his love laid hold on me. [Refrain]

But how the waters failed;
even as I stooped to drink they fled,
and mocked me as I wailed. [Refrain]

but never wept for thee,
till grace the sightless eyes received,
thy loveliness to see. [Refrain] Used With Tune: NONE BUT CHRIST
O Christ, in Thee My Soul
