Gift of God
Author: Beddome Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 55 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 First Line: Jesus my love, my chief delight Lyrics: 1 Jesus my love, my chief delight,
For thee I long, for thee I pray;
Amid the shadows of the night,
Amid the business of the day.
2 When shall I see thy smiling face,
That face which often I have seen;
Arise, thou sun of righteousness,
Scatter the clouds that intervene.
3 Thou art the glorious gift of God,
To sinners weary, and distrest:
The first of all his gifts bestow'd,
And certain pledge of all the rest.
4 Could I but say, this gift is mine,
I'd tread the world beneath my feet;
No more at poverty repine,
Nor envy the rich sinner's state.
5 The precious jewel I would keep,
And lodge it deep within my heart;
At home, abroad, awake asleep,
It never should from thence depart! Topics: Characters and Representations of Christ Gift of God; Christ Gift of God

Author: Rusty Edwards (b. 1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness

turning blindness into sight.

curing every dread disease,
calming storms, and feeding thousands
with the very bread of peace.

with a strong yet gentle word.

with a piercing, two-edged sword.

From this well comes living water,
quenching thirst in every land.

Christ, who suffered in our place.
