King most wonderful,
Thou Conqueror renowned;
Thou Sweetness most ineffable,
In whom all joys are found!
2 When once Thou visited the heart,
Then truth begins to shine:
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love divine.
3 O Jesus, Light of all below!
Thou Fount of life and fire!
Surpassing all the joys we know,
All that we can desire,--
4 May every heart confess Thy Name,
And ever Thee adore;
And, seeking Thee, itself inflame
To seek Thee ore and more.
5 Thee may our tongues forever bless;
Thee may we love alone;
And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine own. Used With Tune: WINCHESTER
O Jesus! King most wonderful
Dear Refuge of my weary soul
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 363 hymnals Topics: The Cross and Comfort; The Cross and Comfort In Outward Suffering; Epiphany, Third Sunday; Sixteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Dear Refuge of my weary soul,
On Thee, when sorrows rise;
On Thee, when waves of trouble roll,
My fainting hope relies.
2 To Thee I tell each rising grief,
For Thou alone canst heal;
Thy word can bring a sweet relief,
For every pain I feel.
3 Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face?
And shall I seek in vain?
And can the ear of sovereign grace
Be deaf when I complain?
4 No, still the ear of sovereign grace
Attends the mourner's prayer:
O may I ever find access,
To breathe my sorrows there!
Used With Tune: LONDON NEW
Dear Refuge of my weary soul
Thou very present Aid
Author: C. Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: The Cross and Comfort; The Cross and Comfort In Outward Suffering; Epiphany, Third Sunday; Easter Season, Thrid Sunday; Sixteenth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty First Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thou very present Aid
In suffering and distress;
The soul which still on Thee is stayed
Is kept in perfect peace.
2 The soul by faith reclined
On his Redeemer's breast,
Midst raging storms exults to find
An everlasting rest.
3 Sorrow and fear are gone,
Whene'er Thy face appears;
It still the sighing orphan's moan,
And dries the widow's tears.
4 It hallows every cross;
It sweetly comforts me;
Makes me forget my every loss,
And find my all in Thee.
5 Peace to the troubled heart,
Health to the sin-sick mind;
The wounded spirit's Balm Thou art,
The Healer of mankind.
6 Jesus, to whom I fly,
Doth all my wishes fill;
In vain created streams are dry,
In have the Fountain still.
7 Stript of my earthly friends,
I fend them all in One;
And peace, and joy that never ends,
And heaven, in Christ alone. Used With Tune: HANDEL
Thou very present Aid
Thy ceaseless, unexhausted Love
Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 116 hymnals Topics: God His Mercy and Faithfulness; Epiphany, Fifth Sunday; Third Sunday after Trinity; Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity; Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity; Twenty Second Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thy ceaseless, unexhausted Love,
Unmerited and free,
Delights our evil to remove,
And help our misery.
2 Thou waitest to be gracious still;
Thou dost with sinners bear;
That, saved, we may Thy goodness feel,
And all Thy grace declare.
3 Thy goodness and Thy truth, to me,
To every soul abound;
A vast unfathomable sea,
Where all our thoughts are drowned.
4 Its streams the whole creation reach,
So plenteous is the store;
Enough for all, enough for each,
Enough for evermore.
5 Faithful, O Lord, Thy mercies are,
A rock that cannot move:
A thousand promises declare
Thy constancy of love.
6 Throughout the universe it reigns,
Unalterably sure;
And, while the truth of God remains,
His goodness must endure. Used With Tune: STOCKTON
Thy ceaseless, unexhausted Love
O Thou before whose presence
Author: S. J. Stone Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Third Sunday in Lent; The Church Year Fourth Sunday after Epiphany; Activity and Zeal; Temperance Lyrics: 1 O Thou before whose presence
Naught evil may come in,
Yet who dost look in mercy
Down on this world of sin;
Oh, give us noble purpose
To set the sin-bound free,
And Christ-like tender pity
To seek the lost for Thee.
2 Fierce is our subtle foeman:
The forces at his hand
With woes that none can number,
Despoil the pleasant land;
All they who war against them,
In strife so keen and long,
Must in their Savior's armor
Be stronger than the strong.
3 So hast Thou wrought among us
The great things that we see:
For things that are we thank Thee,
And for the things to be.
For bright hope is uplifting
Faint hands and feeble knees,
To strive beneath Thy blessing
For greater things than these.
4 Lead on, O Love and Mercy,
O Purity and Power,
Lead on till peace eternal
Shall close this battle-hour:
Till all who prayed and struggled
To set their brethren free,
In triumph, meet to praise Thee,
Most Holy Trinity. Used With Tune: [O Thou before whose presence]

And do on earth our Father's will,
As angels do above:
Still walk in Christ, the living Way,
With all Thy children, and obey
The law of Christian love,
The law of Christian love.
2 So may we join Thy Name to bless,
Thy grace adore, Thy power confess,
From sin and strife to flee:
One is our calling, one our name,
The end of all our hopes the same,
A crown of life with Thee.
3 Spirit of life, of love and peace,
Unite our hearts, our joy increase.
Thy gracious help supply:
To each of us the blessing give,
In Christian fellowship to live,
In joyful hope to die. Used With Tune: ARIEL

That seeks to praise Thy name alone;
Let faith make all my conduct holy,
And love in all my life be shown:
Tame Thou whate'er in me is wild,
And own me always as Thy child.
2 Let me not aim beyond my measure,
But in my place be still content;
To do Thy will be all my pleasure,
For this let all my life be spent;
And if my duties lowly be,
Let this suffice,--they honor Thee! Used With Tune: ELLIS

Can we be dumb whilst angels sing
Our great Redeemer's praise?
3 O sing aloud in boundless grace,
Which thus hath set thee free:
Extol with songs, my savéd soul,
The Saviour's Love to thee.
4 Give endless thanks to God, and say,
What Love was this in Thee,
That Thou hast not withheld Thy Son,
Thine only Son, from me!

With trembling I adore:
Blessed, thrice blessed be my God,
Blessed for evermore. Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S

May we follow Thee, dear Savior,

Thro' to fatherland.

When the cup of sorrow draining,
May we do so uncomplaining;
For thro' trials we
Find our way to Thee.

Anguishes the heart--
Though our life be woe and weakness,
Help us bear our cross in meekness;
May we keep in mind,
God's a Father kind.

Lord! Through all our days;
Though our path be dark and cheerless,
Jesus with us, we'll be fearless;
Open, when life's o'er,
Lord! to us Thy door! Used With Tune: JESUS BE OUR GUIDE (Seelenbräutigam)
Jesus, be our Guide,
O Gud, som Tiden vender

Og styrer i din Haand,
Vi folde vore Hænder
Og sukke ved din Aand:
I Jesu Kristi Navn
Lad dette Aar os være
Velsignet, dig til Ære
Og vore Sjæles Gavn!
2 Dit Ord og Sakramenter
Vi har til denne Stund,
Men ak, hvordan forrenter
Vi disse store Pund?
For Jesu Blod og Saar
Lad dog dit Lys tiltage
Og Syndesøvn forjage
I det begyndte Aar!
3 Giv, at din Naade virker
Med dem, som forestaa
I Skoler og i Kirker,
At Frugten kjendes maa!
For Jesu Skyld former
Din Pris til Verdens Ender,
At man i alle Stænder
Din Naades Virkning ser!
4 Styrk dem, som os frembære
Din Naades søde Bud,
Lad dem, som andre lære,
Selv være lært af Gud!
For Jesu Kristi Blod
Lad Mørkets Magt beskjæmmes,
Og Ordets Kraft fornemmes
I alles Hjerterod!
5 Lad Ægteskaber smykkes
Med Herrens Frygt og Fred!
Saa lægges Sæd, der lykkes,
I Børnesjæle ned.
For Jesu Skyld forfrem
Synder gudfrygtig Næring,
Al ængstelig Besværing
Hold fra vort Hus og Hjem.
6 Opfyld de Gamles Hjerne
Med dybe Tanker om,
At slippe Verden gjerne,
Og møde for din Dom!
For Jesu Mildhed lær
De Unge sig at tvinge,
At agte Verden ringe,
Og have Jesus kjær!
7 Lad dem, som ikke kjende,
At Jesus er saa sød,
Med Hjertens Graad sig vende
Til Naadens blide Skjød!
For Jesu Skyld bevæg
Og smelt de haarde Hjerter,
Og alle Sjælesmerter
Med Jesu Vunder læg!
8 O søde Gud, vi sænker
Udi din Kjærlighed
Især forladte Enker
Og Faderløse ned!
For Jesu Skyld gjør sund
Enhver, som lider Svie,
Og hjælp dem at opbie
Den rette Hjælpestund!
9 Vi vide ei tilhobe,
Som for dit Aasyn staar,
Hvem Døden bort vil raabe
I det begyndte Aar:
For Jesu Skyld bered
Til Døden vore Sinde
Saaledes, at vi finde
I Døden Salighed!
O Gud, som Tiden vender
