Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart

Author: George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 360 hymnals Topics: Temptation Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart; Wean it from earth, thro' all its pulses move. Stoop to my weakness, mighty as Thou art, And make me love Thee as I ought to love. 2 Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King? All, all Thine own - soul, heart and strength and mind. I see Thy cross - there teach my heart to cling; O let me seek Thee, and O let me find. 3 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh; Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear - To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer. 4 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love, One holy passion filling all my frame: The baptism of the heav'n-descended Dove - My heart an altar and Thy love the flame. Amen. Used With Tune: MORECAMBE

Dangerous Prosperity; or, Daily Devotions encouraged

Appears in 165 hymnals Topics: Temptations support under them First Line: Let Sinners take their Course Lyrics: 1 Let Sinners take their Course, And chuse the road to Death; But in the worship of my GOD I'll spend my daily Breath. 2 My Thoughts address his Throne When Morning brings the Light; I'll seek his Blessing ev'ry Noon, And pay my Vows at Night. 3 Thou wilt regard my Cries, O my eternal GOD, While Winners perish in Surprize, Beneath thine angry Rod. 4 Because they dwell at Ease, And no sad Changes feel, They neither fear nor trust thy Name, Nor learn to do thy Will. 5 By I, with all my Cares Will lean upon the Lord; I'll cast my Burdens on his arm, And rest upon his Word. 6 His Arm shall well sustain The Children of his Love; The Ground on which their Safety stands, No earthly Pow'r can move. Scripture: Psalm 55:15-17

Our Only Saviour

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Topics: Temptation First Line: To God, my earnest voice I raise Lyrics: 1 To God my earnest voice I raise, To God my voice imploring prays; Before His face my grief I show And tell my trouble and my woe. 2 When gloom and sorrow compass me, The path I take is known to Thee, And all the toils that foes do lay To snare Thy servant in his way. 3 All unprotected, lo, I stand, No friendly guardian at my hand, No place of flight or refuge near, And none to whom my soul is dear. 4 O Lord, my Saviour, now to Thee, Without a hope besides, I flee, To Thee, my shelter from the strife, My portion in the land of life. 5 Be Thou my help when troubles throng, For I am weak and foes are strong; My captive soul from prison bring, And thankful praises I will sing. 6 The righteous then shall gather round To share the blessing I have found, Their hearts made glad because they see How richly God has dealt with me. Scripture: Psalm 142 Used With Tune: HAMBURG
Our Only Saviour
