Resignation

Author: Cowper Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #259 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Humility First Line: O Lord, my best desire fulfil Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my best desire fulfil, And help me to resign Life, health, and comfort to thy will, And make thy pleasure mine. 2 Why should I shrink at thy command, Whose love forbids my fears? Or tremble at the gracious hand That wipes away my tears? 3 No; let me rather freely yield What most I prize to thee, Who never hast a good withheld, Or wilt withhold from me. 4 Thy favour all my journey through, Thou art engaged to grant; What else I want, or think I do, ’Tis better still to want. 5 Wisdom and mercy guide my way; Shall I resist them both – A poor blind creature of a day, And crushed before the moth? 6 But ah! my inmost spirit cries, Still bind me to thy sway, Else the next cloud that veils my skies Drives all these thoughts away.

Vain is all our best devotion, If on false foundations built; True religion’s more than notion; Something must be known and felt. 2 [’Tis to trust our Well-belovèd In his blood has washed us clean; ’Tis to hope our guilt’s removèd, Though we feel it rise within; To believe that all is finished, Though so much remains to endure; Find the dangers undiminished, Yet to hold deliverance sure.] 3 [’Tis to credit contradictions; Talk with him one never sees; Cry and groan beneath afflictions, Yet to dread the thoughts of ease. ’Tis to feel the fight against us, Yet the victory hope to gain; To believe that Christ has cleansed us, Though the leprosy remain.] 4 [’Tis to hear the Holy Spirit Prompting us to secret prayer; To rejoice in Jesus’ merit, Yet continual sorrow bear; To receive a full remission Of our sins for evermore, Yet to sigh with sore contrition, Begging mercy every hour.] 5 To be steadfast in believing, Yet to tremble, fear and quake; Every moment be receiving Strength, and yet be always weak; To be fighting, fleeing, turning; Ever sinking, yet to swim; To converse with Jesus, mourning For ourselves or else for him.

Then cry we to heaven, with one loud accord, That to us be given the fear of the Lord. Languages: English

To thy sovereign pleasure resigned I would be, And tarry at leisure, and hope still in thee. Scripture: Lamentations 3:25 Languages: English

My gracious Redeemer I love

Author: B. Francis Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #246 (1844) Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Love Lyrics: 1 My gracious Redeemer I love; His praises aloud I’ll proclaim, And join with the armies above, To shout his adorable name. To gaze on his glories divine Shall be my eternal employ; And feel them incessantly shine, My boundless, ineffable joy. 2 He freely redeemed with his blood My soul from the confines of hell, To live on the smiles of my God, And in his sweet presence to dwell; To shine with the angels of light, With saints and with seraphs to sing; To view with eternal delight My Jesus, my Saviour, my King. 3 In Meshech, as yet, I reside, A darksome and restless abode: Molested with foes on each side, And longing to dwell with my God. O when shall my spirit exchange This cell of corruptible clay For mansions celestial, and range Through realms of ineffable day? 4 My glorious Redeemer! I long To see thee descend on the cloud, Amidst the bright numberless throng, And mix with the triumphing crowd. O when wilt thou bid me ascend, To join in thy praises above, To gaze on thee, world without end, And feast on thy ravishing love? 5 No sorrow, nor sickness, nor pain, Nor sin, nor temptation, nor fear, Shall ever molest me again; Perfection of glory reigns there. This soul and this body shall shine In robes of salvation and praise, And banquet on pleasures divine, Where God his full beauty displays. 6 Ye palaces, sceptres, and crowns, Your pride with disdain I survey; Your pomps are but shadows and sounds, And pass in a moment away. The crown that my Saviour bestows, Yon permanent sun shall outshine; My joy everlastingly flows; My God, my Redeemer, is mine! Scripture: John 21:17 Languages: English
