Whose arm has bound the restless wave,
Who bade the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep:
O hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
2 O Savior, whose almighty word
The wind and waves submissive heard,
Who walked upon the foaming deep,
And calm amid its rage did sleep:
O hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
3 O Holy Spirit, who did brood
Upon the chaos wild and rude,
And bade its angry tumult cease,
And gave, for fierce confusion, peace:
O hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
4 O Trinity of love and pow'r,
All travelers guard in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect them where-so-e'er they go;
Thus evermore shall rise to thee
Glad praise from air and land and sea.
Scripture: Genesis 1:2-3 Used With Tune: MELITA

we are gathered all to hear you;
let our hearts and souls be stirred
now to seek and love and fear you,
by your teachings sweet and holy,
drawn from earth to love you solely.
2 All our knowledge, sense, and sight
lie in deepest darkness shrouded,
'til your Spirit breaks our night
with the beams of truth unclouded.
You alone to God can win us;
you must work all good within us.
3 Glorious Lord, yourself impart,
Light of light, from God proceeding;
open now our ears and heart,
help us by your Spirit's pleading;
hear the cry your people raises,
hear and bless our prayers and praises.
4 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
praise to you and adoration!
Grant that we your Word may trust
and obtain true consolation,
while we here below must wander,
'til we sing your praises yonder.

Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire!
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire!
3 While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my Guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
wipe sorrow’s tears away;
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransom'd soul!
My faith looks up to Thee

Author: Steele Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Graces of the Spirit Resignation; Contentment; God a Father First Line: And can my heart aspire so high Lyrics: 1 And can my heart aspire so high,
To say, "my father God!
Lord at thy feet I fain would lie,
And learn to kiss the rod.
2 I would submit to all thy will,
For thou art good and wise;
Let every anxious thought be still,
Nor one faint murmur rise.
3 Thy love can cheer the darksome gloom,
And bid me wait serene;
Till hopes and joys immortal bloom,
And brighten all the scene.
4 "My father"—O permit my heart
To plead her humble claim,
And ask the bliss those words impart.
In my redeemer's name. Scripture: Hebrews 12:7

That in Thy meekness used to shine,
That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod
In wondrous love, O Son of God!
2 Oh, who like Thee, so calm, so bright,
So pure, so made to live in light?
Oh, who like Thee did ever go
So patient through a world of woe?
3 E'en death, which sets the prisoner free,
Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee;
Yet love through all Thy torture glow'd,
And mercy with Thy life-blood flow'd.
4 Oh, in Thy light be mine to go,
Illuming all this way of woe!
And give me ever on the road
To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God!
How beauteous were the marks divine
My dear Redeemer, and my Lord!

I read my duty in Thy word:
But in Thy life the law appears
Drawn out in living characters.
2 Such was Thy truth, and such Thy zeal,
Such def'rence to Thy Father’s will,
Such love and meekness so divine,
I would transcribe and make them mine.
3 Cold mountains and the midnight air
Witness'd the fervor of Thy prayer;
The desert Thy temptations knew,
Thy conflict and Thy vict'ry too!
4 Be Thou my pattern; make me bear
More of Thy gracious image here;
Then God the Judge shall own my name
Among the followers of the Lamb.
My dear Redeemer, and my Lord!
