O, for a closer walk with God!

Author: Wm. Cowper Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #581 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O, for a closer walk with God! A calm and heavenly frame, A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb. 2 Return, O holy Dove! return, Sweet Messenger of rest; I hate the sins that made thee mourn, And drove thee from my breast. 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void The world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from thy throne, And worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb.

Come, let us to the Lord our God

Author: John Morison Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #582 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the Lord our God With contrite hearts return; Our God is gracious, nor will leave The desolate to mourn. 2 His voice commands the tempest forth, And stills the stormy wave; His arm, though it be strong to smite, Is also strong to save. 3 Our hearts, if God we seek to know, Shall know him and rejoice; His coming like the morn shall be, Like morning songs his voice. 4 As dew upon the tender herb, Diffusing fragrance round; As showers that usher in the spring, And cheer the thirsty ground; 5 So shall his presence bless our souls, And shed a joyful light; That hallowed morn shall chase away The sorrows of the night.

Sweet was the time when first I felt

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #583 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Sweet was the time when first I felt The Saviour's pardoning blood Applied to cleanse my soul from guilt, And bring me home to God. 2 Soon as the morn the light revealed, His praises tuned my tongue; And when the evening shades prevailed, His love was all my song. 3 In prayer my soul drew near the Lord, And saw his glory shine; And when I read his holy word, I called each promise mine. 4 But now, when evening shade prevails, My soul in darkness mourns; And when the morn the light reveals, No light to me returns. 5 Rise, Lord, and help me to prevail; O make my soul thy care! I know thy mercy cannot fail; Let me that mercy share. Topics: The Christian Unfaithfulness Lamented Tune Title: MANOAH
