O Jesus, I have promised

Author: John Ernest Bode, 1816-1874 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 633 hymnals Topics: Year A Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; be thou for ever near me, my Master and my friend: I shall not fear the battle if thou art by my side, not wander from the pathway if thou wilt be my guide. 2 O let me feel thee near me: the world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear; my foes are ever near me, around me and within; but, Jesus, draw thou nearer, and shield my soul from sin. 3 O let me hear thee speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will; O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; O speak and make me listen, thou guardian of my soul. 4 O Jesus, thou hast promised, to all who follow thee, that where thou art in glory there shall thy servant be; and, Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end: O give me grace to follow, my Master and my friend. 5 O let me see thy foot-marks, and in them plant mine own; my hope to follow duly is in thy strength alone: O guide me, call me, draw me, uphold me to the end; and then in heav'n receive me, my Savior and my friend.

O Holy City, Seen of John

Author: Walter Russell Bowie Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Topics: Year C Easter 5 Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John, where Christ, the Lamb, does reign, within whose foursquare walls shall come no night, nor need, nor pain, And where the tears are wiped from eyes that shall not weep again. 2 O shame to us who rest content while lust and greed for gain in street and shop and tenement wring gold from human pain, And bitter lips in blind despair cry “Christ has died in vain!” 3 Give us, O God, the strength to build the city that has stayed too long a dream, whose laws are love, whose ways are your own ways, And where the sun that blazes is your grace for all our days. 4 Already in the mind of God that city is prepared: oh, how its splendor challenges the souls that greatly dare, Yes, bids us seize the whole of life and build its glory there.

I al den Ting, jeg gjør, Er Jesus ikke med, Saa faar jeg ingen Frugt Og nyder aldrig Fred. 6 Jeg slipper Jesum ei, Fra ham vil jeg ei træde, Vi sammenbundne er Med Kjærlighedens Kjæde Saa fast, som noget kan Tilsammenføie sig, Og han skal drage mig Med sig til Himmerig. 7 Jeg slipper Jesum ei, Hans Kjærlighed mig driver, Jeg sover eller jeg Opvaagner, Jesus bliver Mit ene faste Maal, Og ingen anden Vei Jeg har til Salighed,– Jeg slipper Jesum ei.

It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds, and drives away our fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, and calms the troubled breast; 'tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary, rest. 3 Dear name! the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding-place, my never-failing treas'ry filled with boundless stores of grace. 4 Jesus! my shepherd, brother, friend, my prophet, priest, and king, my Lord, my life, my way, my end, accept the praise I bring. 5 Weak is the effort of my heart, and cold my warmest thought; but when I see thee as thou art, I'll praise thee as I ought. 6 Till then I would thy love proclaim with ev'ry fleeting breath; and may the music of thy name refresh my soul in death.
