Lord, hear the right, regard my cry
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear the right, regard my cry,
unto my prayer give heed,
that doth not in hypocrisy
from feigned lips proceed.
2 And from before thy presence let
my judgment come to me;
turn thou thine eyes to upright things,
look thou on equity.
3 My heart thou provest, and by night
dost visit and me try,
but findest nought; for my intent
my mouth doth not belie.
4 As for men’s works, I, by the word
that from thy lips doth flow,
have kept myself out of the paths
wherein destroyers go.
5 Hold up my goings, Lord, me guide
in those thy paths divine,
so that my footsteps may not slide
out of those ways of thine.
6 I called have on thee, O God,
because thou wilt me hear:
that thou may’st hearken to my speech,
to me incline thine ear.
7 Thy wondrous loving-kindness show,
thou that, by thy right hand,
sav’st them that trust in thee from those
that up against them stand.
8 As the apple of the eye me keep;
in thy wings' shade me hide
9 from wasting deadly foes, who me
beset on every side.
10 In their own fat they are inclosed;
their mouth speaks loftily.
11 Our steps they compass, and to earth
down bowing set their eye.
12 He like unto a lion is
that’s greedy of his prey,
or lion young, which lurking doth
in secret places stay.
13 Arise, and disappoint my foe,
and cast him down, O Lord:
and from the wicked man my soul
deliver by thy sword.
14 From worldly men, Lord, by thy hand
let me delivered be,
who only in this present life
their part and portion see;
Whom with thy treasure thou dost fill:
they many sons receive;
and of their great abundance they
unto their children leave.
15 But as for me, I thine own face
in righteousness will see;
And with thy likeness, when I wake,
I satisfied shall be. Scripture: Psalm 17 Used With Tune: ST BERNARD

O God, Who by a Star Did Guide
Author: John Mason Neale Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, who by a star did guide
The Wise Men on their way,
Until it came and stood beside
The place where Jesus lay.
2 Although by stars you do not lead
Your servants now below,
Your Holy Spirit, when they need,
Will show them how to go.
3 As yet we know you but in part,
But still we trust your word
That blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see the Lord.
4 O Savior, give us then your grace
For pure in heart we'd be,
That we may see you, face to face,
Through all eternity.
Amen. Topics: Christian Year Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:9-10 Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD

Let Him to whom we now belong
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 125 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let Him to whom we now belong
His sovereign right assert,
And take up every thankful song,
And every loving heart.
2 He justly claims us for His own,
Who bought us with a price;
The Christian lives to Christ alone,
To Christ alone he dies.
3 Jesus, Thine own at last receive,
Fulfil our hearts' desire,
And let us to Thy glory live,
And in Thy cause expire.
4 Our souls and bodies we resign;
With joy we render Thee
Our all, no longer ours, but Thine
To all eternity. Topics: Christian Belongs to Christ; Christian Living to Christ; Christian Belongs to Christ; Christian Living to Christ; Consecration Of Self; The Christian Life The Inner Life; Self-Dedication Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD
Let Him to whom we now belong
Attend, and mark the solemn fast
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Attend, and mark the solemn fast
which to the Lord is dear;
disdain the false unhallow'd mask
which vain dissemblers wear.
2 Do I delight in sorrow’s dress?
saith he who reigns above;
the hanging head and rueful look,
will they attract my love?
3 Let such as feel oppression’s load
thy tender pity share:
and let the helpless, homeless poor,
be thy peculiar care.
4 Go, bid the hungry orphan be
with thy abundance blest;
invite the wand’rer to thy gate,
and spread the couch of rest.
5 Let him who pines with piercing cold
by thee be warm'd and clad;
be thine the blissful task to make
the downcast mourner glad.
6 Then, bright as morning, shall come forth,
in peace and joy, thy days;
and glory from the Lord above
shall shine on all thy ways.
Scripture: Isaiah 58:5-9 Used With Tune: ST BERNARD

Thou Sovereign Let My Evening Song
Author: Anonymous Appears in 190 hymnals First Line: Thou sov'reign, let my evening song Lyrics: 1 Thou sov'reign, let my evening song
Like holy Incense rise;
Assist the off'rings of my tongue
To reach the lofty skies.
2 Thro' all the dangers of the day,
Thy hand was still my guard,
And still to drive my wants away
Thy mercy stood prepared.
3 Perpetual blessings from above
Encompass me around;
But, O, how few returns of love
Hath my Creator found!
4 Sprinkled afresh with pard'ning blood,
I lay me down to rest,
As in th' embraces of my God,
Or on my Savior's breast. Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; The Christian Home Morning, Evening Hymns Scripture: Psalm 141:2 Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD NEW

Hence From My Soul, Sad Thoughts, Begone
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hence from my soul, sad thoughts, begone,
And leave me to my joys;
My tongue shall triumph in my God,
And make a joyful noise.
2 Darkness and doubts had veiled my mind,
And drowned my head in tears,
Till sovereign grace with shining rays
Dispelled my gloomy fears.
3 O what immortal joys I felt,
And raptures all divine,
When Jesus told me I was His,
And my Belovèd mine.
4 In vain the tempter frights my soul,
And breaks my peace in vain;
One glimpse, dear Savior, of Thy face
Revives my joys again.
