"Greater love hath no man"

Author: Gerard T. Noel Hymnal: LD1888 #533 (1888) First Line: If human kindness meets return Lyrics: 1 If human kindness meets return, And owns the grateful tie: If tender thoughts within us burn, To feel a friend is nigh;-- 2 Oh, shall not warmer accents tell The gratitude we owe To him, who died our fears to quell-- Who bore our guilt and woe! 3 While yet in anguish he surveyed Those pangs he would not flee, What love his latest words displayed,-- "Meet and remember me!" 4 Remember thee--thy death, thy shame, Our sinful hearts to share!-- O memory! leave no other name But his recorded there.

Bearing the Cross

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: LD1888 #534 (1888) First Line: Jesus, I my cross have taken Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow thee; Naked, poor, despised, forsaken, Thou, from hence, my all shalt be! Perish, every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known, Yet how rich is my condition, God and heaven are still my own! 2 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour, too; Human hearts and looks deceive me-- Thou art not, like them, untrue; Oh, while thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate, and friends disown me, Show thy fact, and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'Twill but drive me to thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me; Heaven will bring me sweeter rest! Oh, tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me; Oh, 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with thee. 4 Go, then, earthly fame and treasure! Come, disaster, scorn, and pain! In thy service, pain is pleasure, With thy favor, loss is gain. I have called thee--Abba, Father! I have stayed my heart on thee! Storms may howl, and clouds may gather, All must work for good to me.

Child of heaven, canst thou repine! 2 Haste thee, on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer! Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there: Soon shall close thy earthly mission, Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

For thy sorrows we adore thee, For the pains that wrought our peace, Gracious Saviour! we implore thee In our souls thy love increase. 3 Here we feel our sins forgiven While upon the Lamb we gaze, And our thoughts are all of heaven, And our lips o'erflow with praise. Still in ceaseless contemplation, Fix our hearts and eyes on thee, Till we taste thy full salvation, And, unvailed, thy glories see.

Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy wounded side that flowed, Be of sin the perfect cure; Save me, Lord! and make me pure. 2 Should my tears for ever flow, Should my zeal no languor know, This for sin could not atone, Thou must save and thou alone: In my hand no price I bring; Simply to thy cross I cling. 3 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eye-lids close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold thee on thy throne, Rock of ages, cleft for me! Let me hide myself in thee.

Hush, be every murmur dumb; It is only--"Till he come." 3 See, the feast of love is spread, Drink the wine, and break the bread; Sweet memorials,--till the Lord Call us round his heavenly board; Some from earth, from glory some, Severed only--"Till he come."

Christ on the Cross

Author: Richard Lee Hymnal: LD1888 #542 (1888) First Line: When I view my Saviour bleeding Lyrics: 1 When I view my Saviour bleeding, For my sins, upon the tree; Oh, how wondrous!--how exceeding Great his love appears to me!

Now the gracious Mediator Risen to the courts of bliss, Claims for me, a sinful creature, Pardon, righteousness, and peace! 3 Sure such infinite affection Lays the highest claims to mine; All my powers, without exception, Should in fervent praises join. Jesus, fit me for thy service; Form me for thyself alone; I am thy most costly purchase,-- Take possession of thine own.
