Author: Dr. S. D. Phelps, 1816-1895 Appears in 596 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life The Inner Life Lyrics: 1 Saviour, Thy dying love Thou gavest me: Nor should I aught withhold, My Lord, from Thee: In love my soul would bow, My heart fulfil its vow, Some offering bring Thee now Something for Thee. 2 At the blest mercy-seat, Pleading for me; My feeble faith looks up, Jesus, to Thee. Help me the cross to bear, Thy wondrous love declare, Some song to raise, or prayer, Something for Thee. 3 Give me a faithful heart, Likeness to thee, That each departing day, Henceforth may see Some work of love begun, Some deed of kindness done, Some wanderer sought and won Something for Thee. 4 All that I am and have Thy gifts so free In joy, in grief, through life, O Lord, for Thee: And, when Thy face I see, My ransomed soul shall be, Through all eternity, Something for Thee.

My Gracious Lord, I Own Thy Right

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Appears in 262 hymnals Topics: Inner Life Lyrics: 1 My gracious Lord, I own Thy right To every service I can pay, And call it my supreme delight To hear Thy dictates, and obey. 2 What is my being but for Thee, Its sure support, its noblest end? Thy ever smiling ace to see, And serve the cause of such a Friend. 3 I would not breathe for worldly joy, Or to increase my worldly good; Nor future days nor powers employ To spread a sounding name abroad. 4 ’Tis to my Saviour I would live, To Him who for my ransom died; Nor could untainted Eden give Such bliss as blossoms at His side. 5 His work my hoary age shall bless, When youthful vigour is no more; And my last hour of life confess His love hath animating power. Amen. Used With Tune: QUEBEC (HESPERUS)

My heart is resting, O my God

Author: Miss A. L. Waring, 1823-1910 Appears in 97 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life The Inner Life Lyrics: 1 My heart is resting, O my God, I will give thanks and sing; My heart is at the secret source Of every precious thing. Now the frail vessel Thou hast made No hand but Thine shall fill; For the waters of the earth have failed, And I am thirsty still. 2 I thirst for springs of heavenly life, And here all day they rise; I seek the treasure of Thy love, And close at hand it lies. And a "new song" is in my mouth, To long-loved music set: Glory to Thee for all the grace I have not tasted yet. 3 Glory to Thee for strength withheld, For want and weakness known; And the fear that sends me to Thyself For what is most my own. I have a heritage of joy That yet I must not see; But the hand that bled to make it mine Is keeping it for me. 4 My heart is resting, O my God, My heart is in thy care; I hear the voice of joy and health Resounding everywhere. "Thou art my portion," saith my soul, Ten thousand voices say, And the music of their glad Amen Will never die away. Used With Tune: ST. LEONARD'S

Awake, our souls! away, our fears!

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 406 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life The Inner Life Lyrics: 1 Awake, our souls! away, our fears! Let every trembling thought be gone! Awake, and run the heavenly race! And put a cheerful courage on. 2 True, 'tis a strait and thorny road, And mortal spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, That feeds the strength of every saint. 3 O mighty God, Thy matchless power Is ever new, and ever young, And firm endures, while endless years Their everlasting circles run! 4 From Thee, the ever-flowing Spring, Our souls shall drink a fresh supply; While such as trust their native strength Shall melt away, and droop, and die. 5 Swift as the eagle cuts the air, We'll mount aloft to thine abode; On wings of love our souls shall fly, Nor tire along the heavenly road.
