Jesus, Great Shepherd of the Sheep
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 136 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, great Shepherd of the sheep,
To Thee for help we fly;
Thy little flock in safety keep,
For O, the wolf is nigh!
2 He comes, of hellish malice full,
To scatter, tear, and slay;
He seizes every struggling soul
As his own lawful prey.
3 Us into Thy protection take,
And gather with Thine arm;
Unless the fold we first forsake,
The wolf can never harm.
4 We laugh to scorn his cruel power
While by our Shepherd's side;
The sheep he never can devour
Unless he first divide.
5 O do not suffer him to part
The souls that here agree;
But make us of one mind and heart,
And keep us one in Thee.
6 Together let us sweetly live,
Together let us die,
And each a starry crown receive,
And reign above the sky.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Jesus Shepherd Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: ARLINGTON

Try Us, O God
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 187 hymnals First Line: Try us, O God, and search the ground Lyrics: 1 Try us, O God, and search the ground
Of every sinful heart;
Whate’er of sin in us is found,
O bid it all depart!
2 When to the right or left we stray,
Leave us not comfortless;
But guide our feet into the way
Of everlasting peace.
3 Help us to help each other, Lord,
Each other’s cross to bear;
Let each his friendly aid afford,
And feel his brother’s care.
4 Help us to build each other up,
Our little stock improve;
Increase our faith, confirm our hope,
And perfect us in love.
5 Up unto Thee, our living Head,
Let us in all things grow,
Till Thou hast made us free indeed,
And spotless here below.
6 Then, when the mighty work is wrought,
Receive Thy ready bride:
Give us in heaven a happy lot
With all the sanctified.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Trials Scripture: Psalm 139:23 Used With Tune: ARLINGTON

Jesus, my life, thyself apply
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 76 hymnals Used With Tune: ARLINGTON
Jesus, my life, thyself apply
Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 126 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue,
Prepare a tuneful voice;
In God, the life of all my joys,
Aloud will I rejoice.
2 'Tis he adorned my naked soul,
And made salvation mine;
Upon a poor, polluted worm
He makes his graces shine.
3 And lest the shadow of a spot
Should on my soul be found,
He took the robe the Saviour wrought,
And cast it all around.
4 How far that heavenly robe excels
What earthly princes wear!
These ornaments, how bright they shine!
How white the garments are!
5 The Spirit wrought my faith and love
And hope, and every grace;
But Jesus spent his life to work
The robe of righteousness. Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Used With Tune: ARLINGTON
Awake, my heart, arise, my tongue
Salvation! O, the joyful sound!
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 847 hymnals Lyrics: Salvation! O, the joyful sound!
'Tis pleasure to our ears;
A sovereign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.
2 Buried in sorrow and in sin,
At hell's dark door we lay;
But we arise by grace divine,
To see a heavenly day.
3 Salvation! let the echo fly
The spacious earth around;
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound. Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Used With Tune: ARLINGTON
Salvation! O, the joyful sound!
