My God! permit me not to be

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #434 (1899) Topics: Communion With Christ Lyrics: 1 My God! permit me not to be A stranger to myself and Thee: Amidst a thousand thoughts I rove, Forgetful of my highest love. 2 Why should my passions mix with earth, And thus debase my heavenly birth? Why should I cleave to things below, And let my God, my Saviour, go? 3 Call me away from flesh and sense; Thy sovereign word can draw me thence: I would obey the voice divine, And all inferior joys resign. 4 Be earth, with all her cares, withdrawn; Let noise and vanity be gone; In secret silence of the mind, My heaven, and there my God, I find. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ROSE HILL

In Thee my soul is satisfied, My darkness turns to light, And joyful meditations fill The watches of the night. 3 My Savior, 'neath Thy sheltering wings My soul delights to dwell; Still closer to Thy side I press, For near Thee all is well. My soul shall conquer every foe, Upholden by Thy hand; Thy people shall rejoice in God, Thy saints in glory stand. Scripture: Psalm 63 Languages: English Tune Title: THE GREEN HILL

Thou Shepherd of Israel divine

Author: Charles Wesley; John Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #431 (1899) Topics: Communion With Christ Lyrics: 1 Thou Shepherd of Israel divine, The joy and desire of my heart, For closer communion I pine, I long to reside where Thou art: The pasture I languish to find, Where all, who their Shepherd obey, Are fed, on Thy boson reclined, And screened from the heat of the day. 2 Ah! show me that happiest place, That place of Thy people's abode, Where saints in an ecstasy gaze, And hang on a crucified God! Thy love for a sinner declare, Thy passion and death on the tree; My spirit to Calvary bear, To suffer and triumph with Thee. 3 'Tis there with the lambs of Thy flock, There only I covet to rest, To lie at the foot of the Rock, Or rise to be hid in Thy breast; 'Tis there I would always abide, And never a moment depart; Concealed in the cleft of Thy side, Eternally held in Thy heart. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ENON'S ISLE

E'er the blue Heav'ns were stretch'd abroad

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.II (1766) Topics: Communion with Christ and Saints Lyrics: 1 E'er the blue Heav'ns were stretch'd abroad, From Everlasting was the Word; With God he was; the Word was God, And must divinely be ador'd. 2 By his own Pow'r were all Things made; By him supported all Things stand; He is the whole Creation's Head, And Angels fly at his Command. 3 E'er Sin was born, or Satan fell, He led the Host of Morning-Stars; (Thy Generation who can tell, Or count the Numbers of thy Years?) 4 But lo, he leaves those Heav'nly Forms, The Word descends and dwells in Clay, That he may hold Converse with Worms, Drest in such feeble Flesh as they. 5 Mortals with Joy beheld his Face, Th' Eternal Father's only Son; How full of Truth! how full of Grace! When thro' his Eyes the Godhead shone! 6 Arch-Angels leave their high Abode, To learn new Myst'ries here, and tell The Loves of our descending God, The Glories of EMANUEL.
