Dwight Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Topics: The Means of Grace The Christian Church Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Zion, Lord, The house of Thine abode; The Church, O blest Redeemer, saved By Thine own precious blood. 2 I love Thy Church, O God! Her walls before Thee stand Dear as the apple of Thine eye And graven on Thy hand. 3 Should I with scoffers join Her altars to abuse? No! better far my tongue were dumb, My hand its skill should lose. 4 O ne'er may I forget Her welfare nor her woe; Lest ev'ry joy my heart forsake, And ev'ry grief o'er flow. A-men. 5 For her my tears shall fall; For her my prayers ascend; To her my cares and toil be given Till toils and cares shall end. 6 Beyond my highest joy, I prize her heavenly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise. Amen. Used With Tune: ST. THOMAS

Author: Moore Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Growth in Grace Lyrics: 1 The bird let loose in eastern skies, Returning fondly home, Ne'er stoops to earth her wing, nor flies Where idle warblers roam. 2 But high she shoots, through air and light, Above all low delay, Where nothing earthly bounds her flight, Nor shadow dims her way. 3 So grant me, Lord, from every snare Of sinful passion free, Aloft, through faith's serener air, To hold my course to thee. 4 No sin to cloud, no lure to stay My soul, as home she springs, Thy sunshine on her joyful way, Thy freedom in her wings.

Thou alone my Saviour art, Teach Thy wisdom to my heart; Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow. 4 Broken, humbled to the dust By Thy wrath and judgment just, Let my contrite heart rejoice And in gladness hear Thy voice; From my sins O hide Thy face, Blot them out in boundless grace.
