Blest Be the Tie That Binds
Thou hidden Love of God, whose height
Author: John Wesley, 1703 - 91; Gerhard Tersteegen, 1697 - 1769 Appears in 266 hymnals Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ The Inner Life; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Thou hidden Love of God, whose height,
Whose depth unfathomed no man knows;
I see from far thy beauteous light,
Inly I sigh for thy repose.
My heart is pained, nor can it be
At rest, till it finds rest in thee.
2 Thy secret voice invites me still
The sweetness of thy yoke to prove;
And fain I would; but, though my will
Seem fixed, yet wide my passions rove.
Yet hindrances strew all the way;
I aim at thee, yet from thee stray. A-men.
3 Is there a thing beneath the sun
That strives with thee my heart to share?
Ah, tear it thence, and reign alone,
The Lord of every motion there;
Then shall my heart from earth be free,
When it has found repose in thee.
4 Each moment draw from earth away
My heart, that lowly waits thy call;
Speak to my inmost soul, and say,
'I am thy Love, thy God, thy All!'
To feel thy power, to hear thy voice,
To taste thy love, be all my choice.
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. CHRYSOSTOM
Thou hidden Love of God, whose height
Sometimes a light surprises
Author: William Cowper, 1731 - 1800 Appears in 409 hymnals Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ Contemplation Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises
The Christian while he sings;
It is the Lord who rises
With healing in his wings;
When comforts are declining,
He grants the soul again
A season of clear shining,
To cheer it after rain.
2 In holy contemplation
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God’s salvation,
And find it ever new;
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown tomorrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing
But he will bear us through;
Who gives the lilies clothing
Will clothe his people, too:
Beneath the spreading heavens
No creature but is fed,
And he who feeds the ravens
Will give his children bread.
4 Though vine nor fig tree neither
Their wonted fruit should bear,
Though all the fields should wither,
Nor flocks nor herds be there;
Yet God, the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice;
For, while in him confiding
I cannot but rejoice. Used With Tune: CRUGER
Sometimes a light surprises
Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand
Author: Henry Alford Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Appears in 439 hymnals Topics: Life in Christ Life Everlasting, The Lyrics: 1 Ten thousand times ten thousand
In sparkling raiment bright,
The armies of the ransomed saints
Throng up the steeps of light;
'Tis finished, all is finished,
Their fight with death and sin:
Fling open wide the golden gates,
And let the victors in.
2 What rush of alleluias
Fills all the earth and sky!
What ringing of a thousand harps
Bespeaks the triumph nigh!
O day, for which creation
And all its tribes were made;
O joy, for all its former woes
A thousandfold repaid!
3 O then what raptured greetings
On Canaan's happy shore;
What meeting there of parted friends
Where partings are no more!
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle,
That brimmed with tears of late;
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
4 Bring near Thy great salvation,
Thou Lamb for sinners slain;
Fill up the roll of Thine elect,
Then take Thy power, and reign;
Appear, Desire of nations,
Thine exiles long for home;
Show in the heaven Thy promised sign;
Thou Prince and Saviour, come.
Amen. Scripture: Revelation 5:11-13 Used With Tune: ALFORD

Jesus, thy boundless love to me
Author: John Wesley, 1703 - 91; Paul Gerhardt, 1607 - 76 Appears in 353 hymnals Topics: The Life In Christ The Inner Life; The Life In Christ Consecration; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy boundless love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, thine alone I am;
Be thou alone my constant flame.
2 O grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell, but thy pure love alone;
O may thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure, and my crown;
Strange fires far from my soul remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love.
3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray!
All pain before thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek, but thee.
4 Unwearied, may I this pursue,
Dauntless, to this high prize aspire;
Hourly within my soul renew
This holy flame, this heavenly fire;
And day and night be all my care
To guard this sacred treasure there. Used With Tune: ST. PETERSBURG (CHERUBIC HYMN)
