Saviour, breathe an evening blessing

Author: J. Edmeston Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #17 (1894) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Saviour, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal; Sin and want we come confessing; Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal. 2 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He Who, never weary, Watchest where The people be. 3 Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrows past us fly, Angel-guards from Thee surround us; We are safe, if Thou art nigh. 4 Be Thou nigh, should death o'ertake us; Jesu then our refuge be, And in Paradise awake us, There in peace to rest with Thee. 5 Father, to Thy holy keeping Humbly we ourselves resign; Saviour, Who hast slept our sleeping, Make our slumbers pure as Thine; 6 Blessed Spirit, brooding o'er us, Chase the darkness of our night, Till the perfect day before us Breaks in everlasting light. Amen. Topics: Protection; Daily Prayer Evening Languages: English Tune Title: [Saviour, breathe an evening blessing]

Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #17 (1918) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, dismiss us with Thy blessing, Fill our hearts with joy and peace! Let us each, Thy love possessing, Triumph in redeeming grace. O refresh us, O refresh us, Trav'lling thro' this wilderness. 2 Thanks we give and adoration For Thy Gospel's joyful sound. May the fruits of Thy salvation In our hearts and lives abound: May Thy presence, may Thy presence With us evermore be found. 3 So, whene'er the signal's given Us from earth to call away, Borne on angels' wings to heaven, Glad the summons to obey, May we, ready, may we, ready, Rise and reign in endless day.

Alleluia! best and sweetest

Author: John Chandler Hymnal: Church Book #20 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! best and sweetest Of the hymns of praise above! Alleluia! thou repeatest, Angel host, these notes of love. This ye utter, While your golden harps ye move. 2 Alleluia! Church victorious, Join the concert of the sky! Alleluia! bright and glorious, Lift, ye saints, this strain on high! We, poor exiles, Join not yet your melody. 3 Alleluia! strains of gladness Suit not souls with anguish torn: Alleluia! sounds of sadness Best become our state forlorn: Our offences We with bitter tears must mourn. 4 But our earnest supplication Holy God, we raise to Thee: Visit us with Thy salvation, Make us all Thy joys to see! Alleluia! Ours at length this strain shall be. Topics: Worship Praise and Thanksgiving; Septuagesima Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: ALLELUIA, DULCE CARMEN

Here behold me, as I cast me

Author: Joachim Neander; Miss Winkworth Hymnal: Church Book #23 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Here behold me, as I cast me Neath Thy throne, O glorious King! Sorrows thronging, childlike longing, Son of Man, to Thee I bring. Let me find Thee! Me, a poor and worthless thing. 2 Look upon me, Lord, I pray Thee, Let Thy Spirit dwell in mine; Thou hast sought me, Thou hast bought me, Only Thee to know I pine. Let me find Thee! Take my heart, and own me Thine! 3 Naught I ask for, naught I strive for, But Thy grace so rich and free; That Thou givest whom Thou lovest, And who truly cleave to Thee. Let me find Thee! He hath all things who hath Thee. 4 Earthly treasure, mirth and pleasure, Glorious name, or richest hoard, Are but weary, void and dreary, To the heart that longs for God. Let me find Thee! I am thine, O mighty Lord!

Jesus, Lord of life and glory

Cummins Hymnal: Church Book #25 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lord of life and glory, Bend from heaven Thy gracious ear, While our waiting souls adore Thee, Friend of helpless sinners, hear! By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord! 2 Taught by Thine unerring Spirit, Boldly we draw nigh to God, Only in Thy spotless merit, Only through Thy precious Blood; By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord! 3 From the depths of nature's blindness, From the hardening power of sin, From all malice and unkindness, From the pride that lurks within, By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord! 4 When temptation sorely presses, In the day of Satan's power, In our times of deep distresses, In each dark and trying hour, By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord! 5 In the weary hours of sickness, In the times of grief and pain, When we feel our mortal weakness, When the creature's help is vain, By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord! 6 In the solemn hour of dying, In the awful Judgment Day, May our souls, on Thee relying, Find Thee still our Rock and Stay By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord!

Hark! what mean those holy voices

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #26 (1893) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 HARK! what mean those holy voices, Sweetly sounding through the skies? Lo, th'angelic host rejoices; Heavenly hallelujahs rise. 2 Listen to the wondrous story, Which they chant, in hymns of joy, "Glory in the highest, glory! Glory be to God most high! 3 "Peace on earth, good will from heaven, Reaching far as man is found; Souls redeemed, and sins forgiven! Loud our golden harps shall sound. 4 "Christ is born, the great Anointed; Heaven and earth, His praises sing! O receive whom God appointed For your Prophet, Priest, and King. 5 "Hasten, mortals, to adore Him; Learn His Name and taste His joy; Till in heaven ye sing before Him; Glory be to God most high!" 6 Let us learn the wondrous story Of our great Redeemer's birth; Spread the brightness of His glory, Till it cover all the earth.

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing

Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: Church Book #30 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise. 2 Here I raise my Ebenezer, Hither by Thy help I'm come; And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. 3 Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wandering from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious Blood. 4 O, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee. 5 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here's my heart; O take and seal it, Seal it from Thy courts above.
