With Joy We Meditate the Grace

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 420 hymnals Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace of our high priest above; his heart is made of tenderness, it overflows with love. 2 Touched with a sympathy within, he knows our feeble frame; he knows what sore temptations mean, for he has felt the same. 3 But spotless, innocent, and pure the great Redeemer stood while Satan's fiery darts he bore, and did resist to blood. 4 He, in the days of feeble flesh, poured out his cries and tears; and in his measure feels afresh what every member bears. 5 He'll never quench the smoking flax, but raise it to a flame; the bruised reed he never breaks, nor scorns the meanest name. 6 Then let our humble faith address his mercy and his power; we shall obtain delivering grace in each distressing hour.

Author: William H. Parker Meter: 8.4.8.4.5.4.5.4 Appears in 154 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Tell me the stories of Jesus I love to hear; things I would ask him to tell me if he were here; scenes by the wayside, tales of the sea, stories of Jesus, tell them to me. 2 First let me hear how the children stood round his knee; and I shall fancy his blessing resting on me; words full of kindness, deeds full of grace, all in the love-light of Jesus' face. 3 Tell me, in accents of wonder, how rolled the sea, tossing the boat in a tempest on Galilee; and how the Master, ready and kind, chided the billows, and hushed the wind. 4 Into the city I'd follow the children's band, waving a branch of the palm-tree high in my hand; one of his heralds, yes, I would sing loudest hosannas! Jesus is King! 5 Show me that scene in the garden of bitter pain; and of the cross where my Saviour for me was slain. Sad ones or bright ones, so that they be stories of Jesus, tell them to me.

O Holy Spirit, Enter In

Author: Michael Schirmer; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Holy Spirit, enter in, and in our hearts your work begin; now make our hearts your dwelling. Sun of the soul, O Light divine, around and in us brightly shine, your strength in us upwelling. In your radiance life from heaven now is given, overflowing gift of gifts beyond all knowing. 2 Left to ourselves, we surely stray; oh, lead us on the narrow way, with wisest counsel guide us; and give us steadfastness, that we may follow you forever free, no matter who derides us. Gently heal those hearts now broken; give some token you are near us, whom we trust to light and cheer us. 3 O mighty Rock, O Source of life, let your good Word in doubt and strife be in us strongly burning, that we be faithful unto death and live in love and holy faith, from you true wisdom learning. God, your mercy on us shower; by your power Christ confessing, we will cherish all your blessing.
