Jesus, Lover of My Soul
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3,209 hymnals Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH First Line: Jesus. Lover of my soul Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul,
Let me to thy bosom fly
While the nearer waters 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.
Oh, 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. Topics: Redeemer; Redeemer Used With Tune: ABERYSTWYTH

Our Christian faith and love, and only grace avails:
Christ has died! Christ is risen! Christ will come again!

Changes the world and us and brings us home at last:
Christ has died! Christ is risen! Christ will come again! Topics: Faith; Faith Used With Tune: ACCLAMATIONS

Lord Jesus Christ, with Us Abide
Author: Nikolaus Selnecker, 1532-92 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 36 hymnals Tune Title: ACH BLEIB BEI UNS Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, with us abide,
For round us falls the eventide,
Nor let your Word, that heav'nly light,
For us be ever veiled in night.
2 O God, how sin's dread works abound!
Throughout the earth no rest is found,
And falsehood's spirit wide has spread,
And error boldly rears its head.
3 In these last days of sore distress
Grant us, dear Lord, true steadfastness
That pure we keep, till life is spent,
Your holy Word and sacrament.
4 Lord Jesus, help, your Church uphold,
For we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold.
Oh, prosper well your Word of grace,
And spread its truth in ev'ry place.
5 Oh, keep us in your Word, we pray;
The guile and rage of Satan stay!
Oh, may your mercy never cease!
Give concord, patience, courage, peace.
6 The cause is yours, the glory, too,
So hear us, Lord, and keep us true.
Your Word alone is our defense,
The Church's glorious confidence.
7 Oh, grant that in your holy Word
We here may live and die, dear Lord,
And when our journey's ending here,
Receive us into glory there. Topics: Church; Church Used With Tune: ACH BLEIB BEI UNS Text Sources: Translation composite; Geistliche Psalmen, Nuremberg, 1611, st. 1, 3

Joseph Parry
1841 - 1903 Person Name: Joseph Parry, 1841-1903 Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH Hymnal Number: 357 Composer of "ABERYSTWYTH" in Christian Worship (1993) Joseph Parry (b. Merthyr Tydfil, Glamorganshire, Wales, 1841; d. Penarth, Glamorganshire, 1903) was born into a poor but musical family. Although he showed musical gifts at an early age, he was sent to work in the puddling furnaces of a steel mill at the age of nine. His family immigrated to a Welsh settlement in Danville, Pennsylvania in 1854, where Parry later started a music school. He traveled in the United States and in Wales, performing, studying, and composing music, and he won several Eisteddfodau (singing competition) prizes. Parry studied at the Royal Academy of Music and at Cambridge, where part of his tuition was paid by interested community people who were eager to encourage his talent. From 1873 to 1879 he was professor of music at the Welsh University College in Aberystwyth. After establishing private schools of music in Aberystwyth and in Swan sea, he was lecturer and professor of music at the University College of South Wales in Cardiff (1888-1903). Parry composed oratorios, cantatas, an opera, orchestral and chamber music, as well as some four hundred hymn tunes.

Friedrich Funcke
1642 - 1699 Person Name: Friedrich Funcke, 1642-99 Tune Title: ACH GOTT UND HERR Hymnal Number: 170 Author of "Draw Us to Thee" in Christian Worship (1993) Funcke, Friedrich, was born at Nossen in the Harz, where he was baptised March 27, 1642. After receiving a general and musical education at Freiberg and Dresden, he became cantor at Perleberg, and then, in 1664, Stadt Cantor at Luneburg. He was, in 1694, appointed pastor at Römstedt, a few miles south of Lüneburg, and died there Oct. 20, 1699. He revised the Lüneburg Gesangbuch, 1686, and contributed to it 43 melodies and 7 hymns (Blätter für Hymnologie, 1884, pp. 115, 135, 146; 1885, p. 121).
One has passed into English, viz.:—
Zeuch uns nach dir, so kommen wir. [Ascensiontide!] First published in the Lüneburg Stadt Gesang-Buch, 1686, No. 593y? in 5 st. of 4 l., signed "F. F.," and founded on Canticles i. 4. Repeated in Freylinghausen's Gesang-Buch, 1705, No. 699, the Berlin Geistliche Lieder , ed. 1863, No. 341, and many other collections. Often wrongly ascribed to Ludämilia Elizabeth (q.v.), or to Friedrich Fabricius (b. April 20, 1642, at Stettin, and died there Nov. 11, 1703, as Pastor of St. Nicholas's Church).
The only translation in common use is:—
Draw us to Thee, Lord Jesus. A somewhat free translation omitting st. ii. by Miss Winkworth in her Chorale Book for England, 1863, No. 68. Repeated in Dr. Thomas's Augustine Hymnbook, 1866, Marlborough College Hymnbook, 1889, and in America in the Pennsylvania Lutheran Church Book, 1868.
Other translations are: (l) “Draw us, Saviour, then will we," by Miss Dunn, 1857, p. 102. (2) "Draw us to Thee, So shall we flee," by N. L. Frothingham, 1870, p. 275.
The hymn beginning, "Draw us to Thee, in mind and heart," by A. T. Russell, in 4 st., as No. 269 in his Psalms & Hymns, 1851, while not a translation of, is based on this German hymn. Repeated in Dr. Pagenstecher's Collection, 1864, and in J. L. Porter's Collection, 1876. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]
