"Not your own"

Author: Samuel F. Smith Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Oh, not my own these verdant hills Lyrics: 1 Oh, not my own these verdant hills, And fruits and flowers, and stream, and wood; But his who all with glory fills, Who bought me with his precious blood. 2 Oh, not my own this wondrous frame, Its curious work, its living soul; But his who for my ransom came; Slain for my sake, he claims the whole. 3 Oh, not my own the grace that keeps My feet from fierce temptations free; Oh, not my own the thought that leaps, Adoring, blessed Lord, to thee. 4 Oh, not my own; I'll soar and sing, When life, with all its toils, is o'er, And thou thy trembling lamb shalt bring Safe home, to wander nevermore.

Oh, come with blissful ray; Break radiant through the shades of night, And chase my fears away. 6 Then shall my soul with rapture trace The wonders of thy love: But the full glories of thy face Are only known above.

If thou, my God and Teacher, Vouchsafe to be my own, Though poor, I shall be richer Than monarch on his throne. 3 If, while on earth I wander, My heart is right and blest, Ah, what shall I be yonder, In perfect peace and rest?

Poor, weak, and worthless, though I am

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 61 hymnals Topics: Names and Characters of Christ Friend Lyrics: 1 Poor, weak and worthless, though I am, I have a rich almighty friend; Jesus, the Saviour, is his name, He freely loves, and without end. 2 He ransom'd me from hell with blood; And, by his power, my foes controll'd: He found me wandering far from God, And brought me to His chosen fold. 3 But, ah! my inmost spirit mourns; And well my eyes with tears may swim, To think of my perverse returns:-- I’ve been a faithless friend to him. 4 Often my gracious friend I grieve, Neglect, distrust, and disobey; And often Satan’s lies believe Sooner than all my friend can say. 5 Sure, were I not most vile and base, I could not thus my friend requite! And were not He the God of grace, He’d frown and spurn me from his sight.

Leave far behind these scenes of night, And view a luster so divine? Scripture: Revelation 22:16
