I am weak, but Thou art mighty; Hold me with Thy pow'rful hand. Bread of heaven, bread of heaven Feed me till I want no more; Feed me till I want no more. 2 Open now the crystal fountain Whence the healing stream doth flow; Let the fiery, cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through. Strong deliv'rer, strong deliv'rer, Be Thou still my strength and shield; Be Thou still my strength and shield. 3 When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside; Death of death and hell's destruction, Land me safe on Canaan's side. Songs of praises, songs of praises I will ever give to Thee; I will ever give to Thee. Scripture: Exodus 15:13 Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Author: John Ellerton Appears in 866 hymnals Topics: Close of Service First Line: Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise Lyrics: 1 Saviour, again to thy dear name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; We rise to bless thee ere our worship cease, And now, departing, wait thy word of peace. 2 Grant us thy peace upon our homeward way; With thee began, with thee shall end the day; Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon thy name. 3 Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night; Turn thou for us its darkness into light; From harm and danger keep thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to thee. 4 Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life, Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife; Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease, Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace.

Sun of my Soul, Thou Savior Dear

Author: Rev. John Keble; Bishop Ken Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,487 hymnals Topics: Closing of Service Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear, It is not night if Thou be near: O may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes! 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep My weary eyelids gently steep, Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Forever on my Savior's breast! 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, For without thee I cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without Thee I dare not die. 4 If some poor wandering child of Thine Have spurned today the voice divine, Now, Lord, the gracious work begin; Let him no more lie down in sin. 5 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son, The ill that I this day have done, That with the world, myself, and Thee, I, ere I sleep, at peace may be. 6 O may my soul on Thee repose, And with sweet sleep mine eyelids close, Sleep that may me more vigorous make To serve my God when I awake. 7 Praise God, from whom all blessing flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
