Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #724 (1995) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Scripture: John 13:23 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, let me to thy bosom fly, while the raging billows roll, while the tempest still is high; hide me, O my Savior, hide, till the storm of life is past; safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none; hangs my helpless soul on thee; leave, ah, leave me not alone, still support and comfort me. All my trust on thee is stayed, all my help from thee I bring; cover my defenseless head with the shadow of thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; more than all in thee I find. Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy name, I am all unrighteousness, false and full of sin I am, thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with thee is found, grace to cover all my sin; let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art, freely let me take of thee; spring thou up within my heart, rise to all eternity.

Love him who with love is yearning, hail the star that from far bright with hope is burning. 4 Blessed Savior, let me find thee! Keep thou me close to thee; cast me not behind thee!

Fold to your heart your sister and your brother

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-92 Hymnal: Together in Song #587 (1999) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Scripture: John 13:20-26 Lyrics: 1 Fold to your heart your sister and your brother: where pity dwells, the peace of God is there; to worship rightly and to love each other, each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer. 2 For he whom Jesus loved has truly spoken: the holier worship which he deigns to bless restores the lost, and binds the spirit broken, and feeds the widow and the fatherless. 3 Follow with reverent steps the great example of him whose holy work was doing good: so shall the wide earth seem our father's temple, each loving life a psalm of gratitude. 4 Then shall all shackles fall: the stormy clangour of wild war music o'er the earth shall cease; love shall tread out the baleful fire of anger, and in its ashes plant the tree of peace.

Make me a captive, Lord

Author: George Matheson (1842-1906) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #534 (2005) Scripture: John 13:23 Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, and then I shall be free; force me to render up my sword, and I shall conqueror be. I sink in life's alarms when by myself I stand; imprison me within thine arms, and strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor until it master find; it has no spring of action sure, it varies with the wind. It cannot freely move till thou hast wrought its chain; enslave it with thy matchless love, and deathless it shall reign. 3 My power is faint and low till I have learned to serve; it lacks the needed fire to glow, it lacks the breeze to nerve; it cannot drive the world, until itself be driven; its flag can only be unfurled when thou shalt breathe from heaven. 4 My will is not my own till thou hast made it thine; if it would reach a monarch's throne it must its crown resign; it only stands unbent, amid the clashing strife, when on thy bosom it has leant and found in thee its life.
