Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #384 (1888) Topics: Christians Love for Christ First Line: Not with our mortal eyes Lyrics: 1 Not with our mortal eyes
Have we beheld the Lord;
Yet we rejoice to hear his name;
And love him in his word.

Of our Redeemer's face;
Yet, Lord, our inmost thoughts delight
To dwell upon thy grace.

Bow in deep humility.

To the maiden mother told,
Kneeling in her lowly cell,
By the angel Gabriel.

To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave--
"Jesus shall his people save."--

Under all the mighty heaven,
Whereby man, to sin enslaved,
Bursts his fetters, and is saved.

Human name of God above;
Pleading only this we flee,
Helpless, O our God, to thee.

Lovely forms or beauties rare,

When the golden sunbeams rise,
Then my Saviour's form I find
Brightly imaged on my mind.
3 When the star-beams pierce the night,
Oft I think on Jesus' light;
Think how bright that light will be,
Shining through eternity.
4 Come, Lord Jesus! and dispel
This dark cloud in which I dwell,
And to me the power impart
To behold thee as thou art.

Loving and Beloved
Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #392 (1888) Topics: Christians Love for Christ First Line: Do not I love thee, O my Lord? Lyrics: 1 Do not I love thee, O my Lord?
Behold my heart, and see;
And turn the dearest idol out
That dares to rival thee.
2 Is not thy name melodious still
To mine attentive ear?
Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound,
My Saviour's voice to hear?
3 Hast thou a lamb in all thy flock
I would disdain to feed?
Hast thou a foe, before whose face
I fear thy cause to plead?
4 Would not my heart pour forth its blood
In honor of thy name?
And challenge the cold hand of death
To damp the immortal flame?
5 Thou knowest that I love thee, Lord;
But, oh, I long to soar
Far from the sphere of mortal joys,
And learn to love thee more.
Scripture: Ezekiel 14:3 Languages: English Tune Title: ARMENIA

My ransomed soul he leadeth,
And, where the verdant pastures grow,
With food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed,
But yet in love he sought me,
And on his shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
With thee, dear Lord, beside me,
Thy rod and staff my comfort still,
Thy cross before to guide me.
5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight,
Thy unction grace bestoweth.
And, oh, what transport of delight
From thy pure chalice floweth.
6 And so through all the length of days
Thy goodness faileth never,
Good Shepherd! may I sing thy praise
Within thy house for ever. Scripture: Psalm 23:2 Languages: English Tune Title: DOMINUS REGIT

No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
O knit my thankful heart to Thee,
And reign without a rival there!
Thine wholly, Thine alone, I'd live,
Myself to Thee entirely give.

May dwell, but Thy pure love alone;
O may Thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure, and my crown!
All coldness from my heart remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love.

All fear before Thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er Thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire, or seek, but Thee.
Amen. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE
Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me
I Was a Wandering Sheep
Author: Rev. Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #418 (1934) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Love for Christ Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep,
I did not love the fold;
I did not love my Shepherd’s voice,
I would not be controlled.
I was a wayward child,
I did not love my home,
I did not love my Father’s voice,
I loved afar to roam.
2 The Shepherd sought His sheep,
The Father sought His child;
They followed me o’er vale and hill,
O’er deserts waste and wild.
They found me nigh to death,
Famished and faint and lone;
They bound me with the bands of love,
They saved the wandering one.
3 Jesus my Shepherd is;
’Twas He that loved my soul,
’Twas He that washed me in His blood,
’Twas He that made me whole.
’Twas He that sought the lost,
That found the wandering sheep;
’Twas He that brought me to the fold,
’Tis He that still doth keep.
4 No more a wandering sheep!
I love to be controlled,
I love my tender Shepherd’s voice,
I love the peaceful fold.
No more a wayward child!
I seek no more to roam;
I love my heavenly Father’s voice,
I love, I love His home. Languages: English Tune Title: LEBANON
