Author: C. Wordsworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Confirmation Lyrics: 1 O God, in Whose all-searching eye Thy servants stand, to ratify The vow baptismal, by them made, When first Thy hand was on them laid; Bless them, O Holy Father, bless, Who Thee, with heart and voice confess; May they, acknowledged as Thine own, Stand evermore before Thy throne. 2 O Christ, Who didst at Pentecost Send down from heaven the Holy Ghost; And at Samaria baptize Those whom Thou didst evangelize; And then on Thy baptized confer The best of gifts, the Comforter, By apostolic hands, and prayer; Be with us now, as Thou wert there. 3 Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord, With shield of faith, and Spirit's sword; Forth to the battle may they go, And boldly fight against the foe, With banner of the cross unfurled, And by it overcome the world; And so at last receive from Thee The palm and crown of victory. 4 Come, ever blessèd Spirit, come, And make Thy servant's hearts Thy home; Thus consecrated, Lord, to Thee, May each a living temple be. Enrich that temple's holy shrine With sevenfold gifts of grace divine; With wisdom, light, and knowledge, bless, Strength, counsel, fear, and godliness. Amen. Used With Tune: JORDAN

Jesus, now Thine own forever

Author: A. Ramsey; K. J. P. Spitta Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Confirmation Lyrics: 1 Jesus, now Thine own forever, True and steadfast would I be; And be parted from Thee never, Walking day by day with Thee. Thine the life that in me liveth, All my strength by Thee supplied, As the vine its vigor giveth To the branches that abide. 2 Could aught better e'er betide me, Than with Thee to have my place, Who dost evermore provide me Thrice ten thousand gifts of grace? Could I be more cheerful even Than when Thou, O Christ, art near, Unto whom all power is given Both in heaven above and here? 3 Where is there a Lord so gracious Who would do as Thou hast done; Who with His own blood and precious Me from sin and death hath won? Should I not be His possession Who gave up His life for me; Make to Him a good confession, And till death all faithful be? 4 Lord, in pleasure as in sorrow Thy companion would I be; Now and for my each tomorrow I surrender all to Thee. Make me quick when Thou dost beckon, E'en though 'twere to call me hence; Who His life as Thine doth reckon, Waits e'en death in confidence. 5 Through my earthly life be near me, Be Thou with me when it ends; When the evening gathers, cheer me; Bless me when the night descends. Lay Thy holy hand in blessing On my weary, drooping head; Tell me:--Child, all faith possessing, Thou shalt live though thou wert dead. 6 Stay Thou with me, O Lord Jesus, When cold death at last comes on As the chill and piercing breezes Just before the heavenly dawn. Light my heart nor suffer sadness When the darkness dims my sight; Then shall I go forth with gladness As one journeys home at night.
