Come, dearest Lord, descend and dwell
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 281 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 63 Lyrics:
Come, dearest Lord, descend and dwell
By faith and love in every breast;
Then shall we know, and taste, and feel
The joys that cannot be expressed.
Come, fill our hearts with inward strength,
Make our enlarged souls possess,
And learn the height, and breadth, and length
Of thine unmeasurable grace.
Now to the God whose power can do
More than our thoughts or wishes know,
Be everlasting honors done
By all the church, through Christ his Son.

A nearness to my God,
Then would my hours glide sweet away
While leaning on his word.

Anew from day to day,
In joys the world can never give,
Nor ever take away.
3 Blest Jesus, come and rule my heart,
And make me wholly thine,
That I may never more depart,
Nor grieve thy love divine.

Thy goodness I'll adore;
And when my frame dissolves in death,
My soul shall love thee more. Topics: Absence from God; Afflictions; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin; Consistency; Constancy; Declenson spiritual Used With Tune: EVAN

His Way with Thee
Had I the tongues of Greeks and Jews
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 227 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 63 Lyrics:
Had I the tongues of Greeks and Jews,
And nobler speech, that angels use,
If love be absent, I am found,
Like tinkling brass, an empty sound.
Were I inspired to preach and tell
All that is done in heav'n and hell;
Or could my faith the world remove,
Still I am nothing without love.
Should I distribute all my store
To feed the bowels of the poor,
Or give my body to the flame,
To gain a martyr's glorious name;
If love to God and love to men
Be absent, all my hopes are vain;
Nor tongues, nor gifts, nor fiery zeal,
The work of love can e'er fulfil.
