Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CXXXIX (1766) Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 My dear Redeemer and my Lord, I read my Duty in thy Word; But in thy Life the Law appears, Drawn out in living Characters. 2 Such was thy Truth, and such thy Zeal, Such def'rence to thy Father's Will, Such Love, and Meekness so divine, I would transcribe, and make them mine. 3 Cold Mountains, and the Midnight Air, Witness'd the Fervour of thy Pray'r; The Desart thy Temptations knew, Thy Conflict, and thy Vict'ry too. 4 Be thou my Pattern; make me bear More of thy gracious Image here; Then God the Judge shall own my Name Amongst the Foll'wers of the Lamb.

When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #131 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay, What were His works, from day to day, But miracles of pow'r and grace, That spread salvation thro' our race? 2 Teach us, O Lord! to keep in view Thy pattern, and thy steps pursue; Let alms bestowed, let kindness done, Be witnessed by each rolling sun. 3 That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives, but nothing gives, Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creation's blot, creation's blank. 4 But he, who marks from day to day In generous acts his radiant way, Treads the same path his Saviour trod, The path to glory and to God.

God of my mercy and my praise!

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #132 (1814) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 God of my mercy and my praise! Thy glory is my song, Though sinners speak against thy grace With a blaspheming tongue. 2 When in the form of mortal man Thy Son on earth was found, With cruel slanders, false and vain, They compass'd him around. 3 Their mis'ries his compassion move'd, Their peace he still pursu'd: They render'd hatred for his love, And evil for his good. 4 Their malice rag'd without a cause; Yet with his dying breath, He pray'd for murderers on his cross, And bless'd his foes in death. 5 O may his conduct, all-divine, To me a model prove! Like his, O God! my heart incline My enemies to love. Languages: English

"Father divine,: the Saviour cried

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #133 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Example of Christ Lyrics: 1 “Father divine,” the Saviour cried, While horrors press'd on ev'ry side, And prostrate on the ground he lay, “Remove this bitter cup away. 2 "But if these pangs must still be borne, And stripes, and wounds, and cruel scorn, I bow my soul before thy throne, And say, Thy will, not mine, be done." 3 Thus our submissive souls would bow, And, taught by Jesus, lie as low. Our hearts, and not our lips alone, Would say, "Thy will, not our's, be done." 4 Then, though like him in dust we lie, We'll view the blissful moment nigh, Which, from our portion in his pains, Calls to the joy in which he reigns.

Our Example

Author: Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CLXVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Characters and Representations of Christ Our Example; Example of Christ First Line: And is the gospel peace and love? Lyrics: 1 And is the gospel, peace and love? Such let our conversation be: The serpent blended with the dove, Wisdom and meek simplicity. 2 Whene'er the angry passions rise, And tempt our thoughts or tongues to strife, To Jesus let us lift our eyes, Bright pattern of the Christian life! 3 O how benevolent and kind! How mild! how ready to forgive! Be this the temper of our mind, And these the rules by which we live. 4 To do his heavenly Father's will, Was his employment and delight; Humility and holy zeal Shone thro' his life divinely bright! 5 Dispensing good where'er he came, The labors of his life were love; O, if we love the Savior's name, Let his divine example move. 6 But ah how blind! how weak we are! How frail! how apt to turn aside! Lord, we depend upon thy care, And ask thy spirit for our guide. 7 Thy fair example may we trace, To teach us what we ought to be; Make us by thy transforming grace, Dear Savior, daily more like thee.
