Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul

Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 363 hymnals Topics: Lent Lyrics: 1. Dear refuge of my weary soul, On thee, when sorrows rise; On thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting Hope relies. To thee, I tell each rising grief, For thou alone canst heal; Thy word can bring a sweet relief, For ev'ry pain I feel. 2. But oh! when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail, And all my hopes decline. Yet gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust, And still my soul would cleave to thee, Tho' prostrate in the dust. 3. Hast thou not bid me seek thy face, And shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sov'reign grace Be deaf when I complain? No, still the ear of sov'reign grace Attends the mourner's pray'r; Oh, may I ever find access To breathe my sorrows there. 4. Thy mercy seat is open still; Here let my soul retreat, With humble hope attend thy will, And wait beneath thy feet. Thy mercy seat is open still; Here let my soul retreat, With humble hope attend thy will, And wait beneath thy feet. Scripture: Psalm 73 Used With Tune: DEAR REFUGE

Come, Sing a Song of Harvest

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, sing a song of harvest, Of thanks for daily food! to offer God the firstfruits Is old as gratitude. 2 Shall we, sometimes forgetful Of where creation starts, View science as our savior, Lose wonder from our hearts? 3 May God, the great Creator, To whom all life belongs, Accept these gifts we offer, Our service and our songs. 4 And lest the world go hungry While we ourselves are fed, Make each of us more ready To share our daily bread.

O Love, how deep, how broad, how high!

Author: Benjamin Webb (1819-1885) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 143 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Lent Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high! Surpassing thought and fantasy that God, the Son of God, should take our mortal form for mortals' sake. 2 For us baptized, for us he bore his holy fast, and hungered sore; for us temptations sharp he knew; for us the tempter overthrew. 3 For us he prayed; for us he taught; for us the lost with love he sought: by words, and signs, and actions, he brought health and hope to set us free. 4 For us to wicked men betrayed, scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed, he bore the shameful cross and death; for us at length gave up his breath. 5 For us he rose from death again, for us he went on high to reign, for us he sent his Spirit here to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. 6 To him whose boundless love has won salvation for us through his Son, to God the Father, glory be both now and through eternity.
