What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Author: Joseph Scriven, 1820-1886 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,755 hymnals Topics: Temptation Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit;
Oh, what needless pain we bear -
All because we do not carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged -
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness -
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge -
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In his arms he'll take and shield you;
You wilt find a solace there. Used With Tune: CONVERSE

Author: George Smyttan (1822-1870); Francis Pott (1832-1909) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 161 hymnals Topics: Jesus temptations Lyrics: 1 Forty days and forty nights
thou wast fasting in the wild;
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled.
2 Sunbeams scorching day by day;
chilly dewdrops nightly shed;
prowling beasts about thy way;
stones thy pillow; earth thy bed.
3 Shall not we thy sorrows share,
learn thy discipline of will,
and, like thee, by fast and prayer
wrestle with the powers of ill?
4 And if Satan, vexing sore,
flesh and spirit should assail,
thou, his vanquisher before,
wilt not suffer us to fail.
5 Watching, praying, struggling thus,
victory ours at last shall be;
angels minister to us
as they ministered to thee. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13 Used With Tune: AUS DER TIEFE (HEINLEIN)

At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline M. Noel, 1817-1877 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 260 hymnals Topics: Temptation Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus
Ev'ry knee shall bow,
Ev'ry tongue confess him
King of glory now;
’Tis the Father’s pleasure
We should call him Lord,
Who from the beginning
Was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season
To receive a name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom he came,
Faithfully he bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious
When through death he passed.
3 Bore it up triumphant
With its human light,
Through all ranks of creatures
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead,
To the Father’s breast;
Filled it with the glory
Of that perfect rest.
4 Name him, Christians, name him--
Strong your love as death--
But with awe and wonder,
And with life-filled breath;
He is God the Savior,
He is Christ the Lord,
Ever to be worshiped,
Evermore adored.
5 In your hearts enthrone him;
There let him subdue
All that is not holy,
All that is not true:
Crown him as your Captain
In temptation's hour;
Let his will enfold you
In its light and power.
6 Christians, this Lord Jesus
Shall return again,
With his Father's glory,
O'er the earth to reign;
Love and faithful service
We his people vow,
And our hearts confess him
King of glory now. Scripture: John 1:1 Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON

Sweet Hour of Prayer

That calls me from a world of care
And bids me at my Father's throne
Make all my wants and wishes known!
In seasons of distress and grief
My soul has often found relief,
And oft escaped the tempter's snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
2 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
Thy wings shall my petition bear
To him whose truth and faithfulness
Engage the waiting soul to bless;
And since he bids me seek his face,
Believe his word and trust his grace,
I'll cast on him my ev'ry care,
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.
3 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
May I thy consolation share,
Till from Mount Pisgah's lofty height
I view my home and take my flight:
This robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise
To seize the everlasting prize,
And shout, while passing through the air,
"Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!" Scripture: Luke 11:13 Used With Tune: SWEET HOUR
Sweet Hour of Prayer
