Father, to Thee my soul I lift

Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 100 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, to Thee my soul I lift; My soul to Thee depends, Convinced that every perfect gift From Thee alone descends. 2 Mercy and grace are Thine alone, And power and wisdom too; Without the Spirit of Thy Son We nothing good can do. 3 Thou all our works in us hast wrought, Our good is all divine; The praise of every virtuous thought Or righteous work is Thine. 4 From Thee, through Jesus, we receive The power on Thee to call, In whom we are, and move and live: Our God is all in all.

What Shall I Do, My God to Love?

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 60 hymnals First Line: What shall I do, my God to love Lyrics: 1. What shall I do, my God to love, My loving God to praise! The length, and breadth, and height to prove And depth of sovereign grace? 2. Thy sovereign grace to all extends, Immense and unconfined; From age to age it never ends, It reaches all mankind. 3. Throughout the world its breadth is known, Wide as infinity, So wide it never passed by one; Or it had passed by me. 4. My trespass was grown up to Heaven; But far above the skies, In Christ abundantly forgiven, I see Thy mercies rise! 5. The depth of all-redeeming love, What angel-tongue can tell? O may I to the utmost prove The gift unspeakable! 6. Deeper than hell, it plucked me thence; Deeper than inbred sin: Jesus’ love my heart shall cleanse, When Jesus enters in. 7. Come quickly, then, my Lord, and take Possession of Thine own; My longing heart vouchsafe to make Thine everlasting throne. 8. Assert Thy claim, receive Thy right, Come quickly from above, And sink me to perfection’s height, The depth of humble love.

Lord, if Thine Eye Surveys Our Faults

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, if Thine eye surveys our faults, And justice grows severe, Thy dreadful wrath exceeds our thoughts, And burns beyond our fear. 2. Thine anger turns our frame to dust; By one offense to Thee Adam with all his sons have lost Their immortality. 3. Life, like a vain amusement, flies, A fable or a song; By swift degrees our nature dies, Nor can our joys be long. 4. ’Tis but a few whose days amount To threescore years and ten; And all beyond that short account Is sorrow, toil, and pain. 5. Our vitals with laborious strife Bear up the crazy load, And drag those poor remains of life Along the tiresome road. 6. Almighty God, reveal Thy love, And not Thy wrath alone; O let our sweet experience prove The mercies of Thy throne! 7. Our souls would learn the heav’nly art T’ improve the hours we have, That we may act the wiser part, And live beyond the grave.
