Even me, &c. 4 Pass me not, O mighty Spirit: Thou canst make the blind to see, Witnesses of Jesus' merit, Speak the word of power to me-- Even me, &c. 5 Love of God, so pure and changeless, Blood of Christ, so rich and free, Grace of God, so rich and boundless, Magnify it all in me,-- Even me, &c. 6 Pass me not, thy lost one bringing; Bind my heart, O Lord to thee; Whilst the streams of life are springing, Blessing others, oh, bless me,-- Even me, &c.

Lovest thou Me? I hear my Saviour say

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #191 (1854) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Lovest thou Me? Lyrics: "Lovest thou Me?" I hear my Saviour say; Would that my heart had power to answer "Yea," Thou knowest all things, Lord, in heaven above, And earth beneath; Thou knowest that I love." But 'tis not so; in word, in deed, in thought, I do not, cannot love Thee as I ought; Thy love must give that power, Thy love alone; There's nothing worthy of Thee but Thine own. Lord, with the love wherewith Thou lovest me, Reflected on Thyself, I would love Thee; Thence on my brethren shed, might it be seen By all around, that I with Thee had been.

Sing songs of holy ecstasy, To waft my soul on high! 2 When cold and sluggish drops Roll off my marble brow, Burst forth in strains of joyfulness, Let heaven begin below! 3 When the last moment comes, Oh, watch my dying face, And catch the bright, seraphic gleam Which o'er each feature plays. 4 Then, to my ravished ears, Let one sweet song be given-- Let music charm me last on earth, And greet me first in heaven. 5 Then close my sightless eyes, And lay me down to rest, And clasp my pale and icy hands Upon my lifeless breast. 6 Then round my senseless clay Assemble those I love, And sing of heaven, delightful heaven, My glorious home above.

Loves thou me?

Author: Newton Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCL (1792) Topics: Love Loves thou me First Line: 'Tis a point I long to know Lyrics: 1 'Tis a point I long to know, Oft it causes anxious thought; Do I love the Lord, or no? Am I his, or am I not? 2 If I love, why am I thus? Why this dull and lifeless frame? Hardly, sure, can they be worse, Who have never heard his name. 3 [Could my heart so hard remain, Prayer a task and burden prove; Every trifle give me pain, If I knew a savior's love? 4 When I turn my eyes within, All is dark, and vain, and wild; Fill'd with unbelief and sin, Can I deem myself a child?] 5 If I pray, or hear, or read, Sin is mix'd with all I do; You who love the Lord indeed, Tell me is it thus with you? 6 Yet I mourn my stubborn will, Find my sin a grief and thrall; Should I grieve at what I feel, If I did not love at all? 7 [Could I joy his saints to meet, Choose the ways I once abhor'd; Find, at times, the promise sweet If I did not love the Lord?] 8 Lord, decide the doubtful case! Thou, who art the people's sun; Since upon thy work of grace, If it be indeed begun. 9 Let me love thee more and more, If I love at all, I pray; If I have not lov'd before, Help me to begin to-day. Scripture: John 21:16 Languages: English
