Take up thy cross, the Savior said
Author: C. W. Everest Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #394 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Take up thy cross, the Savior said,
If thou wouldst my disciple be;
Deny thyself, the world forsake,
And humbly follow after me.
2 Take up thy cross; let not its weight
Fill thy weak soul with vain alarm;
My strength shall bear thy spirit up,
And brace thine heart and nerve thine arm.
3 Take up thy cross, nor heed the shame,
And let thy foolish pride rebel;
Thy Lord for thee the cross endured,
To save thy soul from death and hell.
4 Take up thy cross, then, in His strength,
And calmly every danger brave;
'Twill guide thee to a better home,
And lead to victory o'er the grave.
5 Take up thy cross and follow Him,
Nor think till death to lay it down;
For only he who bears the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown. Tune Title: [Take up thy cross]

Thou Lamb of God, Thou Prince of Peace
Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791; C. H. Richter, 1676-1711 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #440 (1917) Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Thou Lamb of God, Thou Prince of Peace,
For Thee my thirsty soul doth pine;
My longing heart implores Thy grace;
O make me in Thy likeness shine!
2 With fraudless, even, humble mind,
Thy will in all things may I see;
In love be every wish resigned,
And hallowed my whole heart to Thee.
3 When pain o'er my weak flesh prevails,
With lamb-like patience arm my breast;
When grief my wounded soul assails,
In lowly meekness may I rest.
4 Close by Thy side still may I keep,
Howe'er life's various current flow;
With steadfast eye mark every step,
And follow Thee where'er Thou go.
5 Thou, Lord, the dreadful fight hast won;
Alone Thou hast the winepress trod;
In me Thy strengthening grace be shown;
O may I conquer through Thy blood!
6 So, when on Zion Thou shalt stand,
And all heaven's host adore their King,
Shall I be found at Thy right hand,
And free from pain Thy glories sing. Languages: English Tune Title: MASON

Author: John E. Bode Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #603 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised
to serve you to the end;
be now and ever near me,

nor wander from the pathway
if you will be my guide.

the tempting sounds I hear.

around me and within;
but, Jesus, draw still nearer
and shield my soul from sin!

in accents clear and still,
above the storms of passion,
the murmurs of self-will.
O speak to reassure me,
to hasten or control;
and speak to make me listen,
O guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, you have promised
to all who follow you
that where you are in glory
your servants shall be too.

There shall Thy servant be;

Uphold me to the end!
At last in heaven receive me,
My Saviour and my Friend!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #116 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 My dear Redeemer, and my Lord!
I read my duty in Thy word:
But in Thy life the law appears
Drawn out in living characters.
2 Such was Thy truth, and such Thy zeal,
Such def'rence to Thy Father’s will,
Such love and meekness so divine,
I would transcribe and make them mine.
3 Cold mountains and the midnight air
Witness'd the fervor of Thy prayer;
The desert Thy temptations knew,
Thy conflict and Thy vict'ry too!
4 Be Thou my pattern; make me bear
More of Thy gracious image here;
Then God the Judge shall own my name
Among the followers of the Lamb. Languages: English
My dear Redeemer, and my Lord!

Till our rest is won;
And, although the way be cheerless,
We will follow calm and fearless;
Guide us by Thy hand
To our Fatherland.

If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a woe
To our home we go.
3 When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief,
When temptations come, alluring,
Make us patient and enduring.
Show us that bright shore,
Where we weep no more.
4 Jesus, still lead on,
Till our rest is won;
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland.

In temptation’s way;
Follow where his love may lead you,
Trust him and obey. [Chorus]
