Loving and Beloved

Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 321 hymnals Topics: Christians Love for Christ; Christians Love for Christ First Line: Do not I love thee, O my Lord? Lyrics: 1 Do not I love thee, O my Lord? Behold my heart, and see; And turn the dearest idol out That dares to rival thee. 2 Is not thy name melodious still To mine attentive ear? Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound, My Saviour's voice to hear? 3 Hast thou a lamb in all thy flock I would disdain to feed? Hast thou a foe, before whose face I fear thy cause to plead? 4 Would not my heart pour forth its blood In honor of thy name? And challenge the cold hand of death To damp the immortal flame? 5 Thou knowest that I love thee, Lord; But, oh, I long to soar Far from the sphere of mortal joys, And learn to love thee more.

Now hear me while I pray, Take all my guilt away, Oh, let me from this day Be wholly thine! 2 May thy rich grace impart Strength to thy fainting heart; My zeal inspire; As thou hast died for me, Oh, may my love to thee Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire! 3 While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be thou my guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow's tears away, Nor let me ever stray From thee aside. 4 When ends life's transient dream, When death's cold, sullen stream Shall o'er me roll, Blest Saviour! then, in love, Fear and distrust remove; Oh, bear me safe above, A ransomed soul!

Chorus: Sweeter as the years go by, Sweeter as the years go by; Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus’ love is sweeter, Sweeter as the years go by. 2 He trod in old Judea Life’s pathway long ago - The people thronged about Him, His saving grace to know; He healed the broken-hearted And caused the blind to see; And still His great heart yearneth In love for even me. [Chorus] 3 ’Twas wondrous love which led Him For us to suffer loss - To bear without a murmur The anguish of the cross; With saints redeemed in glory Let us our voices raise, Till heav’n and earth re-echo With our Redeemer’s praise. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Of Jesus' love that sought me]

Jesus all in all

From the best bliss that earth imparts, We turn unfilled to thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on thee call; To them that seek thee thou art good, To them that find thee, All in All. 3 We taste thee, O thou Living Bread, And long to feast upon thee still; We drink of thee, the Fountain Head, And thirst our souls from thee to fill! 4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad, when thy gracious smile we see, Blest, when our faith can hold thee fast. 5 O Jesus, ever with us stay; Make all our moments calm and bright; Chase the dark night of sin away, Shed o'er the world thy holy light!
