Lord, it belongs not to my care

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #374 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit patience and resignation Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 If life be long, I will be glad That I may long obey; If short, yet why should I be sad To soar to endless day? 3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before; No one into His kingdom comes, But through His open'd door. 4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet Thy blesséd face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be! 5 Then I shall end my sad complaints, And weary, sinful days, And join with all triumphant saints Who sing my Jehovah's praise. 6 My knowledge of that life is small; The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him.

Thy sorrow, Lord, is my relief, Thy life hath ransom'd mine. 4 Oh, may I rise with Thee, And soar to things above, And spend a blest eternity In praise of dying Love. Languages: English

My God, I love Thee--not because

Author: Edward Caswall; Francis Xavier Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #451a (1899) Topics: Fruit of the Spirit Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee--not because I hope for heaven thereby-- Nor yet because, if I love not, I must forever die. 2 For me to lowest depths of woe Thou didst Thyself abase; For me didst bear the cross and shame, And manifold disgrace. 3 For me didst suffer pains unknown, Blood-sweat and agony, Yea, death itself--all, all for me Who was Thine enemy. 4 Then why, O blessèd Saviour mine, Should I not love Thee well? Not for the sake of winning heaven, Nor of escaping hell; 5 Not with the hope of gaining aught, Not seeking a reward-- But freely, fully, as Thyself Hast lovèd me, O Lord! 6 E'en so I love Thee, and will love, And in Thy praise will sing; Solely because Thou art my God, And my eternal King. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY

"We walk by faith, not by sight"

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #604 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Faith First Line: Why should a pilgrim grope within Lyrics: 1 Why should a pilgrim grope within, And judge by what he feels? A loathsome stench of death and sin No consolation yields. 2 Corruptions, base and foul as hell, May vex and tease the soul; But Jesus’ blood its rage can quell, And make the conscience whole. 3 I have no life, no light, no love, No truth or righteousness, That God, my Father, can approve, Or justice can caress, 4 But what I have in Christ, my Head, And grace on me bestows; My life with Christ in God is hid, And he’ll redress my woes. 5 In this dear Christ I all things have; Why should I yield to fear? All that a living soul can crave, Is richly treasured here. 6 In him I stand completely just; His heart is my abode; Though in myself, at best, but dust, In him I’ve power with God.

How beauteous were the marks divine

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #119 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit meekness and humility Lyrics: 1 How beauteous were the marks divine That in Thy meekness used to shine, That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Son of God! 2 Oh, who like Thee, so calm, so bright, So pure, so made to live in light? Oh, who like Thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe? 3 E'en death, which sets the prisoner free, Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee; Yet love through all Thy torture glow'd, And mercy with Thy life-blood flow'd. 4 Oh, in Thy light be mine to go, Illuming all this way of woe! And give me ever on the road To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God! Languages: English

From whence this fear and unbelief?

Author: Toplady Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #227 (1844) Meter: 8.8.6 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Faith Lyrics: 1 From whence this fear and unbelief? Hast thou, O Father, put to grief Thy spotless Son for me? And will the righteous Judge of men Condemn me for that debt of sin Which, Lord, was charged on thee? 2 Complete atonement thou hast made, And to the utmost farthing paid Whate’er thy people owed; How then can wrath on me take place, If sheltered in thy righteousness, And sprinkled with thy blood? 3 [If thou hast my discharge procured, And freely in my room endured The whole of wrath divine, Payment God cannot twice demand, First at my bleeding Surety’s hand, And then again at mine.] 4 Turn, then, my soul, unto thy rest; The merits of thy great High Priest Speak peace and liberty; Trust in his efficacious blood, Nor fear thy banishment from God, Since Jesus died for thee.
