Fight the good fight with all thy might
O Thou to Whose all-searching sight
Author: N. L. von Zinzendorf; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 391 hymnals Topics: Septuagesima Lyrics:
O Thou to whose all-searching sight
The darkness shineth as the light,
Search, prove my heart; it pants for thee:
O burst these bonds, and set it free!
Wash out its stains, refine its dross,
Nail my affections to the cross;
Hallow each thought; let all within
Be clean, as thou, my Lord, art clean.
If in this darksome wild I stray,
Be thou my Light, be thou my Way;
No foes, no evils need I fear,
No harm, while thou, my God, art near.
When rising floods my soul o'erflow,
When sinks my heart in waves of woe,
Jesus, thy timely aid impart,
And raise my head, and cheer my heart.
Savior, where'er thy steps I see,
Dauntless, untired, I follow thee:
O let thy hand support me still,
And lead me to thy holy hill!
Amen.

In the cross of Christ I glory

In the cross of Christ I glory
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,233 hymnals Topics: Septuagesima Sunday Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy head upon my breast.
I came to Jesus as I was,
Weary, and worn, and sad;
I found in Him a resting-place,
And He has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live.
I came to Jesus and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in Him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
I am this dark world’s Light;
Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise,
And all thy day be bright.
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In Him, my Star, my Sun;
And in that Light of life I’ll walk,
Till traveling days are done. Used With Tune: VOX DILECTI

Christian, dost thou see them
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818 - 66; Andrew of Crete, cir. 660 - 732 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 305 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Septuagesima to Lent Lyrics: 1 Christian, dost thou see them
On the holy ground,
How the hosts of darkness
Compass thee around?
Christian, up and smite them,
Counting gain but loss;
Smite them by the merit
Of the holy Cross.
2 Christian, dost thou feel them,
How they work within,
Striving, tempting, luring,
Goading into sin?
Christian, never tremble,
Never be down-cast;
Gird thee for the battle,
Watch and pray and fast.
3 Christian, dost thou hear them,
How they speak thee fair:
Always fast and vigil,
Always watch and prayer?
Christian, answer boldly,
'While I breathe, I pray.'
Peace shall follow battle,
Night shall end in day.
4 Well I know thy trouble,
O my servant true,
Thou art very weary,
I was weary too;
But that toil shall make thee
Some day all mine own,
But the end of sorrow
Shall be near my throne.

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
Author: Bp. C. Wordsworth Meter: 7.7.7.5 Appears in 205 hymnals Topics: Septuagesima Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,
Taught by Thee we covet most
Of Thy gifts at Pentecost,
Holy, heavenly love.
2 Love is kind, and suffers long,
Love is meek, and thinks no wrong,
Love than death itself more strong;
Therefore, give us love.
3 Prophecy will fade away,
Melting in the light of day;
Love will ever with us stay;
Therefore, give us love.
4 Faith will vanish into sight;
Hope be emptied in delight;
Love in heaven will shine more bright;
Therefore, give us love.
5 Faith and hope and love we see,
Joining hand in hand, agree,
But the greatest of the three,
And the best, is love.
6 From the overshadowing
Of Thy gold and silver wing,
Shed on us, who to Thee sing,
Holy, heavenly love.
Amen. Used With Tune: [Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost]
Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost
