Amazing pity! Grace unknown! And love beyond degree! [Refrain] 3 Well might the sun in shadows hide, and shut its glories in, When Jesus Christ my Savior died for human creatures' sin.

How Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: Faith and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Who trusts in God, a strong defense in heaven and earth possesses; who looks in love to Christ above, no fear that heart oppresses. In thee alone, dear Lord, we own sweet hope and consolation: our shield from foes, our balm for woes, our great and sure salvation. 2 Though Satan's wrath beset our path and worldly scorn assail us, while thou art near we will not fear, thy strength shall never fail us. Thy rod and staff shall keep us safe, and guide our steps forever, nor shades of death, nor hell beneath, our souls from you shall sever. 3 In all the strife of mortal life our feet shall stand securely; temptations' hour shall lose its power, for thou shalt guard us surely. O God, renew, with heavenly dew our body, soul, and spirit until we stand at thy right hand, through Jesus' saving merit.

Lord, let our eyes the things unseen behold

Author: John Brownlie Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Aspirations Lyrics: I Lord, let our eyes the things unseen behold, And, ’mid the glory that like sunset dies, Fair to the sight the wondrous bliss unfold That lives in beauty under cloudless skies. II And let our ears the things unuttered hear, That silent voices to the soul can tell; That heart can whisper when a heart is near Of love that scorns in uttered tones to dwell. III Teach us to know that things unseen are real, That earth no bloom of fadeless beauty gives, That far beyond the things that sense can feel, The joy of being, and of having, lives. IV Lord Who hast risen, nor left the world behind, Daily incline our sense-bound souls to soar, Till ’mong the things all hidden we may find Possessions that abide for evermore.

Thy way, not mine, O Lord

Author: Dr. H. Bonar, 1808-1889 Appears in 406 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Prayer Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Lord, However dark it be! Lead me by Thine own hand, Choose out the path for me; 2 Smooth let it be or rough, It still will be the best, Winding or straight, it leads Right onward to Thy rest. 3 I dare not choose my lot; I would not, if I might: Choose Thou for me, my God, So shall I walk aright. 4 The kingdom that I seek Is Thine; so let the way That leads to it be Thine, Else I must surely stray. 5 Take Thou my cup, and it With joy or sorrow fill, As best to Thee may seem; Choose Thou my good and ill. 6 Not mine, not mine the choice, In things or great or small; Be Thou my guide, my strength, My wisdom, and my all.
