Father, Son and Holy Ghost

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 133 hymnals Topics: Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Father, Son and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host, Let Thy will on earth be done: Praise by all to Thee be giv'n, Gracious Lord of earth and heav'n. 2 That so poor a worm as I May to Thy great glory live, All my actions sanctify, All my words and thoughts receive: Claim me, for Thy service claim All I have, and all I am. 3 Take my soul and body's pow'rs! Take my mem'ry, mind, and will, All my goods and all my hours, All I know and all I feel: All I think, or speak, or do; Take my heart, but make it new! 4 Now, O God, Thine own I am; Now I give Thee back Thine own; Freedom, friends, and health, and fame, Consecrate to Thee alone; Thine I live, thrice happy I! Happier still if Thine I die. Used With Tune: TURIN

When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay

Author: Thomas Gibbons Appears in 156 hymnals Topics: Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works from day to day, But miracles of pow'r and grace, Which spread salvation thro' our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue: Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives, but nothing gives: Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he who marks from day to day In gen'rous acts his radiant way, The same path treads the Savior trod, The path to glory and to God.

He that goeth forth with weeping

Author: Thomas Hastings, Mus. Doc. Appears in 270 hymnals Topics: Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 He that goeth forth with weeping, Sowing precious seed in love, Never tiring, never sleeping, Findeth blessing from above. 2 Soft descend the dews of heaven, Bright the rays celestial shine; Precious fruits will thus be given Through an influence all divine. 3 Sow thy seed, be never weary, Let no fears thy soul annoy; Be the prospect ne’er so dreary, Thou shalt reap the fruits in joy. 4 God but uses thee as sower, Puts the seed into thy hand; Sow thou then, let Him be Mower, Till thou reap in fatherland.

Faith is wisdom from on high

Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Fifteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Faith is wisdom from on high, Hearing ear and seeing eye; In the soul a higher light Than the ken of mortal sight: Vivid trust in hope serene, Evidence of things not seen. 2 Faith in meekness, as is meet, Sits and learns at Jesus' feet; Nestles closely to the Lord, Happy in the Master's Word; Cleaves to it, defends it then: This to faith is Yea, Amen. 3 Faith is sure, where sight is blind: While lost sense may nowhere find Hope, to stay a sinking soul When the billows o'er it roll, Faith directs its saving quest To the cross, and there finds rest. 4 Faith, in childlike trust, is wise: Trusting Him who never lies; By whose grace the weak grow strong, Change their sighing into song. Praise be Thine, O Lord of might! Faith shall end in glorious sight. Used With Tune: SULLIVAN

The Little While I Linger Here

Author: Franz Mikael Franzen; Rev. Peter Magnus Lindberg Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification; Second Sunday after Easter; Trinty, Fourth Sunday; Trinity, Fifteenth Sunday; Names and Office of Christ Shepherd; Faith and Trust Lyrics: 1 The little while I linger here Should grief and sorrow fret me? No; Jesus is my Shepherd dear, He never will forget me. He gave His life His flock to save, His Spirit and His Word He gave. With these He's ever with us. 2 I hear Him speak, I know His voice, I go where'er He beckons. His own He knows, they are His choice, Their numbers, too, He reckons. And He will seek the straying sheep, The feeble in His bosom keep, And gently raise the fallen. 3 He strengthens me with living bread, With waters sweet and gracious, Which flow from life's great Fountain-head, With peace and joy most precious. Though rough and thorny is my way, If from His path I do not stray, I shall not be forsaken. 4 How vain the worldling's pomp and show, How brief his joys and pleasures! The night approaches now, and lo! We leave all earthly treasures. Then, what are all things here below To Jesus' promise, "Where I go, I will receive you also." Amen. Scripture: John 10:1-6 Used With Tune: WO GOTT DER HERR NICHT BEI UNS HÄLT
