Thine I am, O spotless Lamb; I will suffer nought to hide thee, Nought I ask beside thee. 2 In thine arm I rest me; Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, Ev'ry heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear. Sin and hell in conflict fell With their bitter storms assail me, Jesus will not fail me. 3 Hence, all fears and sadness, For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in. Those who love the Father, Though the storms may gather, Still have peace within. Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Still in thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure!

O Worship the King all glorious above

Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,153 hymnals Topics: God Love and Mercy; God the Father God in Nature; God the Father His Majesty and Power; Worship; liturgical Opening Hymns Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above, O gratefully sing his power and his love: our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days, pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise. 2 O tell of his might and sing of his grace, whose robe is the light, whose canopy space. His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form, and dark is his path on the wings of the storm. 3 Your bountiful care, what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air, it shines in the light; it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in you do we trust, nor find you to fail. Your mercies, how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend! 5 O measureless Might, unchangeable Love, whom angels delight to worship above! Your ransomed creation, with glory ablaze, in true adoration shall sing to your praise! Psalter Hymnal, (Gray)

We rest our hope in you. 3 Teach us the lesson Jesus taught: To feel for those his blood has bought, That ev'ry deed and word and thought May work a work for you. 4 For all are kindred, far and wide, Since Jesus Christ for all has died; Grant us the will, and grace provide To love them all in you. 5 In sickness, sorrow, want, or care, Each other's burdens help us share; May we, where help is needed, there Give help as though to you. 6 And may your Holy Spirit move All those who live to live in love, Till you receive in heav'n above Those who have lived to you.
