Jesus, Thou art mine forever

Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: The Catechism The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art mine forever, Dearer far than earth to me; Neither life nor death shall sever Those sweet ties which bind to Thee. 2 All were drear to me and lonely, If Thy presence gladdened not; While I sing to Thee-- Thee only, Mine’s an ever blissful lot. 3 Thou alone art all my treasure, Who hast died that I might live; Thou conferrest noblest pleasure, Who dost all my sins forgive. 4 Brightest gems and fairest flowers Lose their beauty in Thy frown; Joy and peace, like balmy showers, In Thy smile come gently down. 5 Jesus, Thou art mine forever; Suffer not my soul to stray: Let me in my weakness never Cast my priceless pearl away. 6 Lamb of God, I do implore Thee, Guard, support me, lest I fall: Let me evermore adore Thee; Be my everlasting All.

Jesus! Savior! come to me

Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: The Catechism The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Jesus! Savior! come to me, Let me ever be with Thee; Come, and nevermore depart, Thou who reignest in my heart. 2 Ever do I for Thee sigh, Nothing else can satisfy. Ever do I cry to Thee: Jesus, Jesus, come to me! 3 Earthly joys can give no peace, Ne'er can bid my longing cease; Still to have my Jesus near, This is all my pleasure here. 4 All that makes the angels glad, In their garb of glory clad, Only fills me with distress If Thy presence does not bless. 5 Take Thou all away from me, I shall still thus minded be, Thou who madest me Thine own Shalt be all my joy alone. 6 None shall claim my heart beside, None but Jesus crucified; Savior, I am only Thine, Other love shall ne'er be mine. 7 Thou alone, my God and Lord, Art my glory and reward; Thou hast bled for me and died, I will be no other's bride. 8 Come, then, Lamb for sinners slain, Come and ease me of my pain; Evermore I cry to Thee: Jesus, Jesus, come to me! 9 Patiently I wait and pray; Jesus do not say me nay; That when death shall come to me, Thou my Jesus sweet wilt be.

O Love, How Deep, How Broad, How High

Author: Benjamin Webb, 1820-85; Thomas à Kempis, 1380-1471 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 143 hymnals Topics: The Trinity The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high, How passing thought and fantasy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortals' sake! 2 He sent no angel to our race Of higher or of lower place, But wore the robe of human frame, And he himself to this world came. 3 Nor willed he only to appear, His pleasure was to tarry here; And God and Man with man would be The space of thirty years and three. 4 For us baptized, for us he bore His holy fast and hungered sore; For us temptation sharp he knew, For us the Tempter overthrew. 5 For us he prayed, for us he taught, For us his daily works he wrought, By words and signs and actions thus Still seeking not himself, but us. 6 For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed; He bore the shameful cross and death, For us he gave his dying breath. 7 For us he rose from death again, For us he went on high to reign; For us he sent his Spirit here, To guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. 8 In this great triumph of our King To God on high all praise we bring, To him all thanks and laud give we, The ever-blessèd Trinity. Amen. Used With Tune: DEO GRACIAS

Jesus, priceless Treasure

Meter: 6.6 Appears in 136 hymnals Topics: The Redeemer Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless Treasure, Source of purest pleasure, Truest Friend to me! Long my heart hath panted, 'Till it well-nigh fainted, Thirsting after Thee! Thine I am, O spotless Lamb! I will suffer naught to hide Thee, Ask for naught beside Thee. 2 In Thine arms I rest me, Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here; Though the earth be shaking, Every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; Sin and hell, in conflict fell, With their heaviest storms assail me, Jesus will not fail me. 3 Satan, I defy thee; Death, I need not fly thee; Fear, I bid thee cease! Rage, O world, thy noises Cannot drown our voices Singing still of peace, For God's power guards every hour; Earth and all its depths adore Him, Silent bow before Him. 4 Wealth, I will not heed thee, Wherefore should I need thee? Jesus is my Joy! Honors, ye may glisten, But I will not listen, Ye the soul destroy! Want or loss or shame or cross Ne'er to leave my Lord shall move me, Since He deigns to love me. 5 Farewell, thou who choosest Earth, and heaven refusest, Thou wilt tempt in vain; Farewell, sins, nor blind me, Get ye far behind me, Come not forth again; Past your hour, O pomp and power; Godless life, thy bonds I sever, Farewell now forever! 6 Hence, all fears and sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; Those who love the Father, Though the storms may gather, Still have peace within; Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Still in Thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless Treasure!

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Author: Bp. R. Heber, 1783-1826 Appears in 920 hymnals Topics: Christ Redeemer; Redeemer, the Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness, and lend us thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on HIs cradle the dew-drops are shining; Low lies His bed with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore Him, in slumber reclining, Maker, and Monarch, and Saviour of all. 3 Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, Odours of Edom, and offerings divine? Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, and gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation; Vainly with gifts would His favour secure; Richer by far is the heart's adoration; Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
