How Precious Is the Book Divine
Author: John Fawcett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 652 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How precious is the book divine,
by inspiration given;
bright as a lamp its doctrines shine,
to guide our souls to heav'n.
2 It sweetly cheers our drooping hearts,
in this dark vale of tears;
life, light, and joy it still imparts
and quells our rising fears.
3 This lamp, through all the tedious night
of life, shall guide our way,
till we behold the clearer light
of an eternal day.

The Lord's My Shepherd, I'll Not Want
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 624 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want;
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; He leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
2 My soul He doth restore again
And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
E'en for His own name's sake.
3 Yea, tho' I walk in death's dark vale,
Yet will I fear no ill;
For Thou art with me, and Thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
4 My table Thou hast furnished
In presence of my foes;
My head Thou dost with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy, all my life,
Shall surely follow me,
And in God's house forevermore
My dwelling place shall be.

O Jesus, king most wonderful
By cool Siloam's shady rill
Author: Reginald Heber (1783-1826) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 614 hymnals Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill
how sweet the lily grows!
How sweet the breath beneath the hill
of Sharon's dewy rose!
2 Lo! such the child whose early feet
the paths of peace have trod,
whose secret heart with influence sweet
is upward drawn to God.
3 By cool Siloam's shady rill
the lily must decay,
the rose that blooms beneath the hill
must shortly fade away;
4 And soon, too soon, the wintry hour
of life's maturer age
will shake the soul with sorrow's power
and stormy passion's rage.
5 O thou whose infant feet were found
within thy Father's shrine,
whose years, with changeless virtue crowned,
were all alike divine.
6 Dependent on thy bounteous breath
we seek thy grace alone,
through every stage of life, and death,
to keep us still thine own. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Family, Friendship, and Marriage; Funerals general; Stages of Life Scripture: Isaiah 40:6-8 Used With Tune: BELMONT

I Worship Thee, Sweet Will of God
Author: Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 142 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I worship thee, sweet will of God,
And all thy ways adore;
And every day I live, I long
To love thee more and more.
2. I love to kiss each print where thou
Hast set thine unseen feet;
I cannot fear thee, blessèd will,
Thine empire is so sweet.
3. He always wins who sides with God,
To him no chance is lost;
God’s will is sweetest to him when
It triumphs at his cost.
4. When obstacles and trials seem
Like prison walls to be,
I do the little I can do,
And leave the rest to thee. Used With Tune: BELMONT Text Sources: Jesus and Mary, 1849

But sinners and their wicked ways
Shall perish from His sight.

Pay, O my soul, to God;

To His sublime abode.

From all pollution free;
The pure in heart are Thy delight,
And they Thy face shall see.

O Jesus, Saviour of the lost
Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Appears in 66 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Saviour of the lost,
My Rock and Hiding place,
By storms of sin and sorrow tossed,
I seek Thy sheltering grace.
2 Guilty, forgive me, Lord, I cry,
Pursued by foes I come;
A sinner, save me, or I die;
An outcast, take me home.
3 Once safe in Thine almighty arms,
Let storms come on amain;
There danger never, never harms;
There death itself is gain.
4 And when I stand before Thy throne,
And all Thy glory see,
Still be my righteousness alone
To hide myself in Thee.
Amen. Topics: Christ Hiding-Place; Faith Justification by; Salvation By faith; Supplication Used With Tune: BELMONT
O Jesus, Saviour of the lost
Oh, for a faith that will not shrink
Author: William H. Bathurst Appears in 721 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a faith that will not shrink,
Though pressed by many a foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe!--
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod,
But, in the hour of grief or pain,
Can lean upon its God;--
3 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life's last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heavenly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
4 Lord, give me such a faith as this,
And then, whate'er may come,
We'll taste, e'en here, the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Amen. Topics: Faith Power of; Faith Living by Used With Tune: BELMONT
