O my soul, on wings ascending

Author: Johan Olof Wallin, 1779 - 1839; Composite Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O my soul, on wings ascending, On the holy mount seek rest, Let thy fervent praise and prayer Come before thy Maker there, Knowing that, while yet a mortal, Thou art near the Father's portal. 2 While upon this earth abiding, Let us never cease to pray, In the blessèd Lord confiding, As our fathers in their day. Be the voice of children raised To the God our fathers praised; May his blessing, failing never, Rest on all his saints forever. 3 Bless us, Father, and protect us From all harm in all our ways; Patiently, O Lord, direct us Safely through these fleeting days; Let thy face upon us shine, Fill us with thy peace divine; Praise the Father, Son, and Spirit, Praise him, all that life inherit.

Speak, O Savior; I Am Listening

Author: Anna Sophia of Hesse-Darmstadt, 1638-83 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Speak, O Savior, I am list'ning Lyrics: 1 Speak, O Savior; I am list'ning, As a servant to his lord. Let me show respect and honor To your holy, precious Word, That each day, my whole life through, I may serve and follow you. Let your Word e'er be my pleasure And my heart's most precious treasure. 2 Oh, what blessing to be near you And to listen to your voice! Let me ever love and fear you; Let your Word still be my choice. Many hardened sinners, Lord, Flee in terror at your Word, But to all who feel sin's burden You give peace and words of pardon. 3 Lord, your words are waters living Where I quench my thirsty needs. Lord, your words are bread life-giving; On your words my spirit feeds. Lord, your words will be my light Through death's cold and dreary night; Yes, they are my sword prevailing And my cup of joy unfailing. 4 As I pray, dear Jesus, hear me; Let your words in me take root. May your Spirit e'er be near me That I bear abundant fruit. May I daily sing your praise, From my heart glad anthems raise, Till my highest praise is given In the endless joy of heaven.

Soul Of Mine, To God Awaking

Author: H. Brueckner; Joh. Rist Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Soul of mine, to God awaking, And ye senses, ev'ry one, Come, your quiet haunts forsaking, Tell what God for me has done; He through this entire day Has been with me on my way, To my many wants attending And all dangers from me fending. 2 Praise and thanks to Thee I render, Father Thou of mercies great. Thou hast been my strong Defender, Never shall Thy love abate. Thou hast shielded me from woe, Lent me strength and foiled the foe, So that I, Thy help beholding, Rest secure in Thine enfolding. 3 If from Thee I have departed, I return again to Thee, Knowing Thou art tender-hearted, Since Thy Son atoned for me. I cannot deny my guilt, But for me His blood was spilt, And Thy grace, all sin exceeding, Grants forgiveness at His pleading. 4 Grant that I in peace may slumber, Finding sweet and quiet rest. Let no cares my soul encumber, Keep it by Thy presence blest. Mind and body, child and wife, All my goods and all my life, Friends and foes, alike befriended, Be this night to Thee commended. 5 O immortal God, endue me With the gifts for which I ask. Jesus, lest some ill pursue me, Prosper me in ev'ry task. Holy Spirit, Comfort, Friend, On whose counsel I depend, Hearken to my earnest pleading; Amen, Thou my prayer art heeding.

When the Lord recalls the banished

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Samuel Gottlieb Bürde Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When the Lord recalls the banished, Frees the captives all at last, Every sorrow will have vanished, Like a dream when night is past; Then shall all our hearts rejoice, And with glad resounding voice We shall praise the Lord who sought us, For the freedom He hath wrought us. 2 Lift Thy hand to aid us, Father, Let the end of exile come, And Thy scattered servants gather ln their longed for, promised home. Steep and weary is the way, Shorten Thou the sultry day, Faithful warriors hast Thou found us? Let Thy peace for aye surround us. 3 In that peace we reap in gladness What was sown in tearful showers; There the fruit of all our sadness Ripens,--there the palm is ours; There our God upon His throne Is our full Reward alone. They who lived, who died unto Him, Sheaves of gladness bring there through Him.
