Author: Charles Wesley (1707-88) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #659 (1986) Topics: Means of grace Family worship - Home Lyrics: 1 Blest be the dear uniting love That will not let us part; Our bodies may far off remove, We still are one in heart. 2 Joined in one spirit to our head, Where he appoints we go; And still in Jesus’ footsteps tread, And show his praise below. 3 O may we ever walk in him, And nothing know beside, Nothing desire, nothing esteem, But Jesus crucified. 4 Closer and closer let us cleave, To his beloved embrace; Expect his fulness to receive, And grace to answer grace. 5 Partakers of the Saviour’s grace, The same in mind and heart, Nor joy, nor grief, nor time, nor place, Nor life, nor death can part.

Jesus, Savior, wondrous mild, On Thy tender grace relying, We present this infant child, With Thy plain behest complying: Children shall to me be given; Theirs the kingdom is of heaven. 2. Nor should we Thy warning scorn, That by water and the Spirit Man must needs be newly born If his soul would fain inherit, As Thy kingdom's sacred treasure, Grace and peace in fullest measure. 3. So we hasten, Lord, to Thee, In our arms this infant bearing; Pledged to Thee O let it be, All Thy tender mercies sharing; Own it as Thy child forever; Naught from Thee its soul shall sever. 4. Now upon Thy heart we lay That which from the heart proceeded; Hear our sighings, Lord, we pray, Let our deep desires be heeded; Write the name that we have given In the book of life in heaven.

Out Of The Depths I Cry To Thee

Author: Miss Winkworth; Martin Luther Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #65 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to Thee; Lord, hear me, I implore Thee. Incline Thy gracious ear to me As I appear before Thee. If Thou remember each misdeed And give to each his rightful meed, Who can abide Thy presence? 2 Thy pardon, Lord, is gained through grace: It can alone avail us. Our works can ne'er our guilt efface, The strictest life must fail us. Before Thee none can boast of aught; To fear Thee we are rightly taught, On grace alone depending. 3 My hope is, therefore, in the Lord, And not in mine own merit; I rest upon His faithful word To them of contrite spirit; That He is merciful and just, This is my comfort and my trust: I wait for Him in patience. 4 And though I tarry till the night And till the morn awaken, My heart shall not mistrust His might Nor count itself forsaken. Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed, Ye of the Spirit born indeed, Wait for your God's appearing. 5 Though great our sins and sore our woes, His grace much more aboundeth; His helping love no limit knows, Our utmost need it soundeth. Our Shepherd good and true is He, Who will at last set Israel free From all their sin and sorrow. Languages: English Tune Title: DE PROFUNDIS

Built On The Rock, The Church Doth Stand

Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig; C. Doving Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #92 (1930) Topics: The Means of Grace The Christian Church Lyrics: 1 Built on the Rock, the Church doth stand, Even though steeples be falling; Crumble may spires in ev'ry land; Bells still are chiming and calling, Calling the young and old to rest. But above all the soul distressed, Longing for rest in the Savior. 2 Surely in temples made with hands God the Most High is not dwelling; High above earth His temple stands, All earthly temples excelling; Yet He who dwells in heav'n above Deigns to descend to us in love, Making our bodies His temple. 3 We are God's house, of living stones Built for His own habitation; He in our hearts as Sov'reign thrones, Granting us life and salvation; Were there but two to seek His face, He would draw near them with His grace, Blessings upon them bestowing. 4 Now we may gather with our King E'en in the lowliest dwelling; Praises to Him we there may bring, Bounteous mercy forth-telling; Jesus His grace to us accords, Spirit and life are all His words, His truth doth hallow the temple. 5 Grant then, O God, who dwell'st on high, That when the church bells are ringing Many to Jesus may draw nigh Where He His message is bringing: I know Mine own, Mine own know Me, Ye, not the world, My face shall see; My peace I leave with you. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MIRKEN
