Jesus, the joy of loving hearts
Author: R. Palmer (1808-1887) Appears in 584 hymnals Topics: Easter 1 The Bread of Life Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the joy of loving hearts,
true source of life, our lives sustain:
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to you again.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood,
you rescue those who on you call:
to those yet seeking, you are good —
to those who find you, all-in-all.
3 We taste of you, the living bread,
and long to feast upon you still;
we drink from you, the fountain-head,
our thirsty souls from you we fill.
4 Our restless spirits long for you,
whichever way our lot is cast,
glad when your gracious smile we view,
blessed when our faith can hold you fast.
5 Jesus, for ever with us stay,
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away,
spread through the world your holy light.
(Amen.)

Loving Shepherd of thy sheep

keep me, Lord, in safety keep;
nothing can thy pow'r withstand,
none can pluck me from thy hand.

thine own life that I might live;
may I love thee day by day,
gladly thy sweet will obey.

teach me till thy voice to hear;
suffer not my steps to stray
from the straight and narrow way.
4 Where thou leadest I would go,
walking in thy steps below;
then, before my Father's throne,
Jesu, claim me for thine own. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:12 Used With Tune: BUCKLAND

Sweet the moments, rich in blessing
Author: W. Shirley Appears in 841 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Easter Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,
Which before the cross we spend;
Life, and health, and peace possessing,
From the sinner's dying Friend.
2 Truly blessed is this station,
Low before His cross to lie,
While we see divine compassion
Beaming in His gracious eye.
3 For Thy sorrows we adore Thee,
For the pains that wrought our peace;
Gracious Savior! we implore Thee,
In our souls Thy love increase!
4 Here we feel our sins forgiven,
While upon the Lamb we gaze;
And our thoughts are all of heaven,
And our lips o'erflow with praise.
5 Lord, in loving contemplation,
Fix our hearts and eyes on Thee,
Till we taste Thy full salvation,
And Thine unveiled glory see.

Holy Spirit, Source of Love
Author: William Dalrymple Maclagan Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 38 hymnals Topics: Easter 4 Year B Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, source of love,
who, to us, came from above,
gifts of blessing to bestow
on your waiting church below:
once again in love draw near
to your servants gathered here.
2 Give them light your truth to see,
strength to serve you joyfully,
daily power to conquer sin,
patient faith the crown to win;
shield them from temptation's breath,
keep them faithful unto death.
3 When the sacred vow is made,
when the hands are on them laid,
come in this most solemn hour
with your sevenfold gifts of power;
come, O blessed Spirit, come,
make each eager heart your home.

Another Sabbath is begun:
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest,
Improve the day thy God has blest.

So sweet a rest to wearied minds;
Provides an antepast of heaven,
And gives this day the food of seven.
3 O that our thoughts and thanks may rise
As grateful incense to the skies;
And draw from heaven that sweet repose
Which none but he that feels it knows.
4 With joy God's wondrous works we view
In various scenes both old and new;
With praise we think on mercies past,
With hope we future pleasures taste.
5 In holy duties let the day,
In holy pleasures pass away.
How sweet a Sabbath thus to spend,
In hope of one that ne'er shall end! Used With Tune: ST. GREGORY

All good gifts around us
are sent from heaven above;
then thank the Lord, O thank the Lord,
for all his love.

he lights the evening star;
the winds and waves obey him,
by him the birds are fed;
much more to us, his children,
he gives our daily bread. [Refrain]
3 We thank thee then, O Father,
for all things bright and good,
the seed-time and the harvest,
our life, our health, our food.
Accept the gifts we offer
for all thy love imparts,
and, what thou most desirest,
our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:13-14 Used With Tune: WIR PFLÜGEN
