O draw me, Saviour, after Thee!
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 O draw me, Saviour, after Thee!
So shall I run and never tire.
With gracious words still comfort me;
Be Thou my Hope, my sole Desire.
Free me from every weight: nor fear
Nor sin can come, if Thou art here.
2 From all eternity, with love
Unchangeable, Thou hast me viewed.
Ere knew this beating heart to move,
Thy tender mercies me pursued.
Ever with me may they abide,
And close me in on every side.
3 Still let Thy Love point out my way;
How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought!
Still lead me, lest I go astray;
Direct my work, inspire my thought;
And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice, and know that love is near.
4 In suffering be Thy love my peace,
In weakness be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that important hour,
In death as life be Thou my Guide,
And save me, Who for me hast died!
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE

On mercies multiplied,
My grateful heart inspires my tongue

Fellowship with God
Fill Thou My Life, O Lord My God
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ and God Lyrics: 1 Fill thou my life, O Lord my God,
in ev'ry part with praise,
that my whole being may proclaim
thy being and thy ways.
Not for the lip of praise alone,
nor e'en the praising heart,
I ask, but for a life made up
of praise in ev'ry part:
2 Praise in the common words I speak,
life's common looks and tones,
in fellowship enjoyed at home
with my beloved ones,
enduring wrong, reproach, or loss
with sweet and steadfast will,
forgiving freely those who hate,
returning good for ill.
3 So shall each fear, each fret, each care
be turned into a song,
and ev'ry winding of the way
the echo shall prolong.
So shall no part of day or night
from sacredness be free,
but all my life, in ev'ry step,
be fellowship with thee.
Scripture: Psalm 34:1 Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE
Fill Thou My Life, O Lord My God

My soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly;

Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in thee.
Refrain:
Hiding in thee, hiding in thee -
Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in thee.
2 In the calm of the noon-tide, in sorrow's lone hour,
In times when temptation casts o'er me its power,
In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in thee. [Refrain]
3 How oft in the conflict, when pressed by the foe,
I have fled to my refuge and breathed out my woe!
How oft when trials like sea-billows roll,
Have i hidden in thee, O thou Rock of my soul! [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 31:2 Used With Tune: HIDING IN THEE

Prayer is the Soul's Sincere Desire
Author: Rev. James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 850 hymnals Topics: Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire.
Unuttered or expressed,
The motion of a hidden fire,
That trembles in the breast.
2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
The falling of a tear,
The upward glancing of the eye,
When none but God is near.
3 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
The Christian's native air,
His watchword at the gates of death;
He enters heaven with prayer.
4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice,
Returning from his ways,
While angels in their songs rejoice,
And cry, "Behold, he prays!"
5 O Thou, by whom we come to God,
The Life, the Truth, the Way,
The path of prayer Thyself hast trod;
Lord, teach us how to pray. Used With Tune: EVAN
Prayer is the Soul's Sincere Desire
O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace
Author: Ambrose, d.297; John Chandler Appears in 85 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace,
Thou Brightness of Thy Father's face,
Thou Fountain of eternal light,
Whose beams disperse the shades of night!
2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love,
Send down Thy radiance from above;
And to our inmost hearts convey
The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray.
3 May He our actions deign to bless,
And loose the bonds of wickedness,
From sudden falls our feet defend,
And guide us safely to the end.
4 May faith, deep-rooted in the soul,
The flesh subdue, our minds control;
May guile depart, and discord cease,
And all within be joy and peace.
5 O hallowed thus be every day!
Let meekness be our morning ray,
And faithful love our noonday light,
And hope our sunset, calm and bright.
6 O Christ, with each returning morn,
Thine image to our hearts is borne;
O may we ever clearly see
Our Saviour and our God in Thee!
Amen. Used With Tune: WAREHAM

Él llevó nuestro dolor,
Y nos manda que llevemos
Todo a Dios en oración
¿Vive el hombre desprovisto
De paz, gozo y santo amor?
Esto es porque no llevamos
Todo a Dios en oración.
2 ¿Vives débil y cargado
De cuidados y temor?
A Jesús, refugio eterno,
Dile todo en oración.
¿Te desprecian tus amigos?
Dilo a Cristo en oración;
En sus brazos gozo tierno
Hallará tu corazón.
3 Jesucristo es nuestro amigo:
De esto pruebas Él nos dio
Al sufrir el cruel castigo
Que el culpable mereció,
Y su pueblo redimido
Hallará seguridad
Fiando en este amigo eterno
Y esperando en su bondad.

I heard the voice of Jesus say
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1,231 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say:
"Come unto Me and rest;
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy head upon My breast."
I came to Jesus as I was,
So weary, and worn, and sad;
I found in Him a resting-place,
And He hath made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say:
"Behold, I freely give
The living water, thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live."
I came to Jesus and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in Him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"I am this dark world's Light;
Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise,
And all thy day be bright."
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In Him my Star, my Sun;
And in that Light of life I'll walk
Till traveling days are done.
Amen. Used With Tune: VOX DILECTI
