O blest are they who oft have said

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O blest are they who oft have said, "I thirst for righteousness; I hunger for the heavenly bread With anguish and distress." 2 They of My fulness shall be fed, For which they hungered sore; And there, by living waters led, Their souls shall thirst no more. 3 Because I am the Truth, the Life, All fullness dwells in me; They know no want, no sin, no strife, Through all eternity. 4 How blessed, then, to share a part With those that hunger here; To have the panting, thirsty heart, And shed the bitter tear! 5 O give me, Lord, the grace to know And feel my need of thee; To long for righteousness below Till I thy fullness see.

Thy Mercy and Thy Truth, O Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thy mercy and Thy truth, O Lord, Transcend the lofty sky; Thy judgments are a mighty deep, And as the mountains high. 2. Lord, Thou preservest man and beast; Since Thou art ever kind; Beneath the shadow of Thy wings We may a refuge find. 3. With the abundance of Thy house We shall be satisfied, From rivers of unfailing joy Our thirst shall be supplied. 4. The fountain of eternal life Is found alone with Thee, And in the brightness of Thy light We clearly light shall see. 5. From those that know Thee may Thy love And mercy ne’er depart, And may Thy justice still protect And bless the upright heart. 6. The workers of iniquity Are fallen utterly; They shall not triumph in their pride, Or drive my soul from Thee.

I Waited Patient for the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 108 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I waited patient for the Lord, He bowed to hear my cry; He saw me resting on His Word, And brought salvation nigh. 2. He raised me from a horrid pit, Where mourning long I lay, And from my bonds released my feet, Deep bonds of miry clay. 3. Firm on a rock He made me stand, And taught my cheerful tongue To praise the wonders of His hand, In a new thankful song. 4. I’ll spread His works of grace abroad; The saints with joy shall hear, And sinners learn to make my God Their only hope and fear. 5. How many are Thy thoughts of love! Thy mercies, Lord, how great! We have not words nor hours enough Their numbers to repeat. 6. When I’m afflicted, poor, and low, And light and peace depart, My God beholds my heavy woe, And bears me on His heart.

O for a heart to praise my God!

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1,178 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God! A heart from sin set free! A heart that's sprinkled with the blood So freely shed for me! 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My dear Redeemer's throne; Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone! 3 A humble, lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean, Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within. 4 A heart in every thought renewed, And filled with love divine! Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of thine! 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Come quickly from above, Write thy new name upon my heart, Thy new, best name of love.
