So let our lips and lives express

Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 494 hymnals Topics: Twenty Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 So let our lips and lives express The holy Gospel we profess: So let our works and virtues shine, To prove the doctrine all divine. 2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad The honors of our Saviour God; When His salvation reigns within, And grace subdues the power of sin. 3 Our flesh and sense must be denied, Passion and envy, lust and pride; While justice, temperance, truth and love Our inward piety approve. 4 Religion bears our spirits up, While we expect that blessed hope, The bright appearance of the Lord, And faith stands leaning on His Word.

Author: Sarah Flower Adams Meter: 6.4 Appears in 2,576 hymnals Topics: Twenty Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee! 2 Though, like the wanderer, The sun gone down, Darkness be over me, My rest a stone, Yet in my dreams I'd be Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee! 3 There let my way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me In mercy given; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts Bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upwards I fly; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee; Nearer to Thee!

Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 3,323 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high! Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on Thee: Leave, ah, leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me! All my trust on Thee is stayed, All my help from Thee I bring: Cover my defenseless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find: Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy Name; I am all unrighteousness: False and full of sin I am; thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound; Make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the Fountain art, Freely let me take of thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity. Used With Tune: ST. EDMUND

Det dugger over Dal og Field, Det vaares allevegne! Gud har sin milde Haand oplukt, Den gode Sæd har baaret Frugt I fjerne Verdens Egne! Lover Herren! Sjæle bundne, Nu gjenfundne, Frelste føres, Glædesang i Himlen høres. 2 Som Regn og Sne fra Himlens Sky, De vande Jorden, gjør den ny, At Grøden stander fager, Aaa vender, siger Gud, mit Ord Tilbage ikke tomt fra Jord, Men gjør, hvad mig behager, Lover Herren! Ordet sandes, Ørken vandes, Grøden trives, Og nyt Liv de Døde gives. 3 Den gode Hyrde, se han gaar, Indtil han fundet har sit Faar, Og Glædes Taarer rinde; O, lad os flittig gaa med ham, Og lokke paa de kjære Lam, Som løbe om i Blinde! Lover Herren! Løfter Raabet Glad i Haabet, Troesstærke! Det er Herrens Haand, vi merke. 4 Velkomme alle fjern og nær Til Herrens Søskend-Samfund her, Som har i Himlen hjemme! Gud signe eder, gjøre stærk, Og han, som har begyndt sit Værk, Til Kristi Dag det fremme! Lover Herren Langt om Lande, I, som stande Tungt i Striden, Saa med Graad og glædes siden!

Chief of sinners tho' I be

Author: William McComb Appears in 89 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Chief of sinners tho' I be, Jesus shed His blood for me; Died that I might live on high, Lived that I might never die. As the branch is to the vine, I am His and He is mine. 2 O the hight of Jesus' love! Higher than the heavens above, Deeper than the depths of sea, Lasting to eternity; Love that found me, wondrous thought! Found me when I sought Him not. 3 Jesus only can impart Balm to heal the smitten heart, Peace that flows from sin forgiven; Joy that lifts the soul to heaven; Faith and hope to walk with God In the way that Enoch trod. 4 Chief of sinners though I be, Christ is all in all to me; All my wants to Him are known, All my sorrows are His own. Safe with Him from earthly strife He sustains the hidden life. 5 O my Savior! help afford, By Thy Spirit and Thy Word! When my wayward heart would stray, Keep me in the narrow way; Grace in time of need supply While I live and when I die. Used With Tune: DIX (Treuer Heiland, wir sind hier)

Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee

Author: Francis Scott Key Meter: 8.7 Appears in 280 hymnals Topics: Third Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee For the bliss Thy love bestows, For the pardoning grace that saves me, And the peace that from it flows. Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise: Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise. 2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee From the paths of death away. Praise, with love's devoutest feeling, Him who saw Thy guilt-born fear, And the light of hope revealing, Bade the blood-stained Cross appear. 3 Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling Vainly would my lips express: Low before Thy footstool kneeling, Deign Thy suppliant's prayer to bless. Let thy grace, my soul's chief treasure, Love's pure flame within me raise: And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth Thy praise. Used With Tune: ADORATION

O du min Immanuel

Author: Brorson Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Twenty third Sunday after Trinity Sunday Lyrics: 1 O du min Immanuel, Jesus! hvilken Himmel-Glæde Har du gjort min arme Sjæl Ved dit Blods den Purpur-Væde! Fienden tænkte, den var fast, Men hans træske Snare brast. 2 Jeg er i min Faders Skjød, Har hos Gud i Himlen hjemme, Der er Synd og der der Død Ikke mere at fornemme; Arven faar jeg vist og sandt, Har den Helligaand til Pant. 3 Gud ske Lov for Dag, der gaar! Gud ske Lov for Dag, der kommer! Dermed har vi Jubelaar, Og en evig, evig Sommer, Da det sidste Morgenskjær Er, Halleluja, os nær! 4 Op, min Sjæl, til Fryd og Sang, Flyde hellig Glædes Taare, Hver Blodsdraabe Takkerklang Give, til jeg er paa Baare; Dig, som for os Kalken drak, Jesus, Jesus, evig Tak!

My God! permit me not to be

Why should I cleave to things below, And let my God, my Saviour, go? 3 Call me away from flesh and sense; Thy sovereign word can draw me thence: I would obey the Voice divine, And all inferior joys resign.
