As longs the deer for cooling streams
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 343 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As longs the deer for cooling streams
in parched and barren ways,
so longs my soul, O God, for thee
and thy refreshing grace.
2 For thee, my God, the living God,
my thirsty soul doth pine:
O when shall I behold thy face,
thou Majesty divine?
3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Hope still, and thou shalt sing
the praise of him who is thy God,
thy health's eternal spring.
4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God whom we adore,
be glory, as it was, is now,
and shall be evermore. Topics: The Christian Life Scripture: Psalm 42:1-7 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM Text Sources: New Version of the Psalms of David, 1696, alt.

What Poor Despised Company
Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 170 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What poor despised company
Of travelers are these,
That walk in yonder narrow way,
Along that rugged maze?
2 Ah, these are of a royal line,
All children of a king;
Heirs of immortal crowns divine,
And lo! for joy they sing.
3 Why do they then appear so mean,
And why so much despised?
Because of their rich robes unseen,
The world is not apprised.
4 But some of them seem poor distressed,
And lacking daily bread;
Ah, they’re of boundless wealth possessed,
With hidden manna fed.
5 But why keep they that narrow road,
That rugged thorny maze?
Why, that’s the way their leader trod,
They love and keep His ways.
6 Why must they shun the pleasant path,
That worldlings love so well?
Because that is the road to death,
The open road to hell.
7 What, is there then no other road,
To Salem’s happy ground?
Christ is the only way to God,
None other can be found. Used With Tune: BEATITUDO Text Sources: A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs Intended for the Edification of Sincere Christians of All Denominations (New London: Conn.: 1774)

How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,660 hymnals First Line: How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole
and calms the troubled breast;
'tis manna to the hungry soul,
and to the weary, rest.
3 O Jesus, shepherd, guardian, friend,
my Prophet, Priest, and King,
my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
accept the praise I bring.
4 How weak the effort of my heart,
how cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you as you are,
I'll praise you as I ought.
5 Till then I would your love proclaim
with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of your name
refresh my soul in death.

Alas! And Did My Saviour Bleed
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,353 hymnals First Line: Alas! And did my Savior bleed Lyrics: 1 Alas! And did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sovereign die!
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I!
2 Was it for crimes that I had done
He suffered on the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut its glories in,
When Christ, the great Redeemer, died
For human creatures' sin.
4 But drops of grief can ne’er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give my self away;
’Tis all that I can do.
Scripture: Isaiah 53:3-5 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM
Alas! And Did My Saviour Bleed
