O God of mercy, God of might
Author: G. Thring Meter: 8.8.8.6 Appears in 105 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity; The Church Year Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O God of mercy, God of might,
In love and pity infinite,
Teach us, as ever in Thy sight,
To live our life to Thee.
2 And Thou who cam'st on earth to die,
That fallen man might live thereby,
O hear us, for to Thee we cry;
In hope, O Lord, to Thee.
3 Teach us the lesson Thou hast taught,
To feel for those Thy blood hath bought,
That every word, and deed, and thought,
May work a work for Thee.
4 For all are brethren, far and wide,
Since Thou, O Lord, for all hast died;
Then teach us, whatsoe'er betide,
To love them all in Thee.
5 In sickness, sorrow, want or care,
Whate'er it be, 'tis ours to share;
May we, when help is needed, there
Give help as unto Thee.
6 And may Thy Holy Spirit move
All those who live, to live in love,
Till Thou shalt greet in heaven above
All those who live to Thee. Used With Tune: [O God of mercy, God of might]
O God of mercy, God of might
Jesus, Thy boundless Love to me
Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 347 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless Love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to Thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, Thine alone I am;
Be Thou alone my constant flame.
2 O Love, how cheering is Thy ray!
All pain before Thy presence flies:
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er Thy healing beams arise:
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek but Thee!
3 Unwearied, may I this pursue,
Dauntless to the high prize aspire;
Hourly within my soul renew
This holy flame, this heavenly fire;
And day and night be all my care
To guard this sacred treasure there! Used With Tune: O DASZ ICH TAUSEND ZUNGEN HÄTTE
Jesus, Thy boundless Love to me
We give Thee but Thine own
Author: William Walsham How Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 486 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own,
Whate'er the gift may be:
All that we have is Thine alone,
A trust, O Lord, from Thee.
2 May we Thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive,
And gladly, as Thou blessest us,
To Thee our first fruits give.
3 O hearts are bruised and dead,
And homes are bare and cold,
And lambs, for whom the Shepherd bled,
Are straying from the fold!
4 To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless
Is angels' work below.
5 The captive to release,
The lost to God to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace,--
It is a Christ-like thing.
6 And we believe Thy Word,
Though dim our faith may be;
Whate'er we do for Thine, O Lord,
We do it unto Thee. Used With Tune: POTSDAM
We give Thee but Thine own
Jesus, still lead on
Author: Jane Borthwick; Nicholas Louis, Count Zinzendorf Meter: 5.5.8 Appears in 289 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Jesus, still lead on,
Till our Rest be won!
And although the way be cheerless,
We will follow, calm and fearless.
Guide us by Thy hand
To our Fatherland!
2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
For through many a foe
To our home we go!
3 When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief;
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring:
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more!
4 Jesus, still lead on,
Till our Rest be won;
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland. Used With Tune: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM
Jesus, still lead on
When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
Author: Thomas Gibbons Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 155 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay,
What were His works from day to day
But miracles of power and grace,
Which spread salvation through our race?
2 Teach us, O Lord! to keep in view
Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue.
Let alms bestowed, let kindness done
Be witnessed by each rolling sun.
Used With Tune: MELCOMBE
When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
Chief of sinners tho' I be
Author: William McComb Appears in 90 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Chief of sinners tho' I be,
Jesus shed His blood for me;
Died that I might live on high,
Lived that I might never die.
As the branch is to the vine,
I am His and He is mine.
2 O the hight of Jesus' love!
Higher than the heavens above,
Deeper than the depths of sea,
Lasting to eternity;
Love that found me, wondrous thought!
Found me when I sought Him not.
3 Jesus only can impart
Balm to heal the smitten heart,
Peace that flows from sin forgiven;
Joy that lifts the soul to heaven;
Faith and hope to walk with God
In the way that Enoch trod.
4 Chief of sinners though I be,
Christ is all in all to me;
All my wants to Him are known,
All my sorrows are His own.
Safe with Him from earthly strife
He sustains the hidden life.
5 O my Savior! help afford,
By Thy Spirit and Thy Word!
When my wayward heart would stray,
Keep me in the narrow way;
Grace in time of need supply
While I live and when I die. Used With Tune: DIX (Treuer Heiland, wir sind hier)
Chief of sinners tho' I be
Who givest all

To Thee all praise and glory be;
How shall we show our love to Thee,
Who givest all?
2 The golden sunshine, vernal air,
Sweet flowers and fruit, Thy love declare;
Where harvests ripen, Thou art there,
Who givest all.
3 For peaceful homes, and healthful days,
For all the blessings earth displays,
We owe Thee thankfulness and praise,
Who givest all.
4 Thou didst not spare Thine only Son,
But gav'st Him for a world undone,
And freely with that blessed One
Thou givest all.
5 Thou giv'st the Spirit's holy dower,
Spirit of life, and love, and power,
And dost His sevenfold graces shower
Upon us all.
6 For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven,
For means of grace and hopes of heaven,
What can to Thee, O Lord, be given,
Who givest all?
7 We lose what on ourselves we spend,
We have, as treasure without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend,
Who givest all.
8 Whatever Lord, we lend to Thee,
Repaid a thousand fold will be;
Then gladly will we give to Thee
Who givest all,--
9 To Thee, from whom we all derive,
Our life, our gifts, our power to give;
O may we ever with Thee live,
Who givest all! Used With Tune: [O Lord of heaven and earth and sea]
Who givest all
Just as I am, without one plea
Author: Charlotte Elliott Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,121 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy Blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee, whose Blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
5 Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise I believe;
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
6 Just as I am; Thy Love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be thine, year, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come! Used With Tune: [Just as I am without one plea]

Love divine, all love excelling
Author: C. Wesley Appears in 1,864 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all love excelling,
Joy of heaven, to earth come down!
Fix in us Thy humble dwelling,
All thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, Thou art all compassion,
Pure, unbounded love Thou art;
Visit us with Thy salvation,
Enter every trembling heart!
2 Breathe, O breathe Thy loving spirit
Into every troubled breast!
Let us all in Thee inherit,
Let us find Thy promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning,
Alpha and Omega be;
End of faith, as its beginning,
Set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, Almighty, to deliver,
Let us all Thy life receive;
Graciously return, and never,
Never more Thy temples leave!
Thee we would be always blessing,
Serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
Pray and praise Thee without ceasing,
Glory in Thy precious love.
4 Finish then Thy new creation,
Pure and spotless let us be;
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee!
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heaven we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise. Used With Tune: RIPLEY
Love divine, all love excelling
My God, I love Thee; not because
Author: Francis Xavier, d. 1552; Edward Caswall Appears in 208 hymnals Topics: Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee; not because
I hope for heaven thereby;
Nor because they, who love Thee not,
Must burn eternally.
2 Thou, O my Jesus! Thou didst me
Upon the Cross embrace;
For me didst bear the nails and spear,
And manifold disgrace;
3 And griefs and torments numberless,
And sweat of agony;
E'en death itself--and all for one
Who was Thine enemy.
4 Then why, O blessed Jesus Christ!
Should I not love Thee well?
Not for the sake of winning heaven,
Nor of escaping hell;
5 Not with the hope of gaining aught;
Not seeking a reward;
But, as Thyself hast lovéd me,
O ever loving Lord!
6 E'en so I love Thee, and will love,
And in Thy praise will sing;
Solely because Thou art my God,
And my eternal King. Used With Tune: CHESHIRE
My God, I love Thee; not because
