Is It for Me?
O 'tis a lovely thing to see
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 38 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17 Lyrics:
O 'tis a lovely thing to see
A man of prudent heart,
Whose thoughts, and lips, and life agree
To act a useful part.
When envy, strife, and wars begin
In little angry souls,
Mark how the sons of peace come in,
And quench the kindling coals.
Their minds are humble, mild, and meek,
Nor let their fury rise;
Nor passion moves their lips to speak,
Nor pride exalts their eyes.
Their frame is prudence mixed with love,
Good works fulfil their day;
They join the serpent with the dove,
But cast the sting away.
Such was the Savior of mankind,
Such pleasures he pursued;
His flesh and blood were all refined,
His soul divinely good.
Lord, can these plants of virtue grow
In such a heart as mine?
Thy grace my nature can renew,
And make my soul like thine.

Be thou my guardian and my guide
Author: Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 34 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:5-6 Lyrics: 1 Be thou my guardian and my guide,
and hear me when I call;
let not my slippery footsteps slide,
and hold me lest I fall.
2 The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell
around the path I tread;
O save me from the snares of hell,
thou quickener of the dead.
3 And if I tempted am to sin,
and outward things are strong,
do thou, O Lord, keep watch within,
and save my soul from wrong.
4 Still let me ever watch and pray,
and feel that I am frail;
that if the tempter cross my way,
yet he may not prevail. Topics: Lent I Year B; Proper 10 Year A; Third Sunday Before Advent Year C; Second Sunday Before Advent Year A; Lent Used With Tune: ABRIDGE

And He bore me to His fold.

Precious hiding place,
In the shelter of His love;
Not a doubt or fear,
Since my Lord is near,
And I'm sheltered in His love.

To the shelter of His love;
Of His grace and will He taught me,
And of heav'nly rest above. (Chorus)

I am safe, for He is near;
Never shall my foes confound me,
While the Savior's voice I hear. (Chorus) Topics: Christ Comforter; Christ Love; Christ Refuge; Christ Comforter; Christ Love; Christ Refuge Used With Tune: [I was straying when Christ found me]

The Transforming Vision of God
Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:15 First Line: My God, the visits of thy face Lyrics:
I. My God, the visits of thy face
Afford superior joy,
To all the flatt'ring world can give,
Or mortal hopes employ.
II. But clouds and darkness intervene,
My brightest joys decline,
And earth's fay trifles oft ensnare
This wand'ring heart of mine.
III. Lord, guide this wand'ring heart to thee;
Unsatisfied I stray:
Break thro' the shades of sense and sin,
With thine enliv'ning ray.
IV. O let thy beams resplendent shine,
And ev'ry cloud remove;
Transform my pow'rs, and fit my soul
For happier scenes above.
V. There Jesus reigns! may I be cloth'd
With his divine array;
And when I close these eyes in death,
Awake to endless day:
VI. To endless day! To perfect life!
To bliss without alloy!
Where not the least faint cloud shall rise,
To intercept the joy:
VII. To view, unveil'd, thy radiant face,
Thou everlasting fair!
And chang'd to spotless purity,
Thy glorious likeness wear:
VIII. To feast, with ever new delight,
On uncreated good;
And drink full satisfying draughts
Of pleasure's sacred flood.
IX. O bliss too big for mortal thought!
It awes, and yet inspires:
Fain would my soul, unfetter'd, rise
In more intense desires.
X. Lord, raise my faith, my hope, my heart,
To those transporting joys;
Then shall I scorn each little snare,
Which this vain world employs:
XI. Then, tho' I sink in death's cold sleep,
I shall awake to bliss,
And in the likeness of my God,
Find endless happiness.

Dicha grande es la del hombre
Author: Tomás M. Westrup Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:1-8 Lyrics: 1 Dicha grande es la del hombre
cuyas sendas rectas son;
No anda con los pecadores,
en actuar de perversión.
A los malos consejeros
deja, porque teme el mal;
Huye de la burladora
gente impía e inmoral.
2 Antes, en la ley divina
cifra su mayor placer,
Meditando noche y día
en su divinal saber;
Este, como el árbol verde,
bien regado y en sazón,
Frutos abundantes rinde
y hojas que perennes son.
3 Él prosperado en lo que emprende
y le sale todo bien;
Mas funestos resultados
los impíos siempre ven;
Porque Dios la senda mira
por la cual los suyos van;
Otra es la de los impíos:
al infierno bajarán.
