Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Author: Thomas Ken, 1637-1711 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 903 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise,
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
2 Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart,
And with the angels bear thy part,
Who all night long unwearied sing
High praise to the eternal King.
3 Lord, I my vows to thee renew;
Disperse my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first springs of thought and will,
and with thyself my spirit fill.
4 Direct, control, suggest, this day,
All I design, or do, or say,
That all my pow3rs, with all their might
In thy sole glory may unite.
5 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Praise him, all creatures here below;
Praise him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Amen.

Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Jesus, the Sinner's Friend, to Thee
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 174 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the sinner’s friend, to Thee,
lost and undone, for aid I flee,
weary of earth, myself, and sin;
open Thine arms, and take me in.
2 Pity and heal my sin-sick soul;
’tis Thou alone canst make me whole;
fall'n till in me Thine image shine,
and cursed I am, till Thou art mine.
3 The mansion for Thyself prepare,
dispose my heart by ent'ring there;
'tis this alone can make me clean,
'tis this alone can cast out sin.
4 At last I own it cannot be
that I should fit myself for Thee;
here then to Thee I all resign;
Thine is the work, and only Thine.

Jesus, the Sinner's Friend, to Thee
We sing the praise of him who died
Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769 - 1854 Appears in 194 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We sing the praise of him who died,
Of him who died upon the Cross;
The sinner's hope let men deride,
For this we count the world but loss.
2 Inscribed upon the Cross we see,
In shining letters, 'God is Love.'
He bears our sins upon the Tree;
He brings us mercy from above.
3 The Cross, it takes our guilt away;
It holds the fainting spirit up;
It cheers with hope the gloomy day,
And sweetens every bitter cup.
4 It makes the coward spirit brave,
And nerves the feeble arm for fight;
It takes its terror from the grave,
And gilds the bed of death with light;
5 The balm of life, the cure of woe,
The measure and the pledge of love,
The sinner's refuge here below,
The angels' theme in heaven above. Topics: The Church Year Lent; The Church Year Good Friday; The Life In Christ Contemplation Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM

"Take Up Your Cross," the Savior Said
Author: Charles W. Everest Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 301 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Take up your cross," the Savior said,
"if you would my disciple be;
Take up your cross with willing heart
and humbly follow after me."
2 Take up your cross; let not its weight
fill your weak spirit with alarm;
Christ's strength will bear your spirit up
and brace your heart, support your arm.
3 Take up your cross, heed not the shame,
and let your foolish pride be still;
For Christ did not refuse to die
upon a cross on Calvary's hill.
4 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down,
For only those who bear the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown. Topics: Cross of Believers; Discipleship; Lent; Year A Proper 17; Year B Lent 2; Year C Proper 18 Scripture: Mark 8:34 Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM

Great God, To Thee My Evening Song
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 286 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Great God, to Thee my evening song
With humble gratitude I raise;
O let Thy mercy tune my tongue
And fill my heart with lively praise.
2 Mercy, that rich unbounded store;
Does my unnumbered wants relieve;
Among Thy daily craving poor,
On Thy all bounteous hand I live.
3 My days unclouded, as they pass,
And every gently rolling hour,
Are monuments of wondrous grace,
And witness to Thy love and power.
4 Thy love and power, celestial Guard,
Preserve me from surrounding harms;
Can danger reach me, while the Lord
Extends His kind protecting arms?
5 My numerous wants are known to Thee,
Ere my slow wishes can arise;
Thy goodness, measureless and free,
Is ready still with full supplies.
6 And yet this thoughtless, wretched heart,
Too oft regardless of Thy love,
Ungrateful, can from Thee depart,
And fond of trifles, vainly rove.
7 When calm reflection finds a place,
How vile this wretched heart appears!
O let Thy all subduing grace
Melt it in penitential tears.
8 Seal my forgiveness in the blood
Of Jesus: His dear name alone
I plead for pardon, gracious God,
And kind acceptance at Thy throne.
9 Let this blest hope my eyelids close
With sleep refresh my feeble frame;
Safe in Thy care may I repose,
And wake with praises to Thy name. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, 1760
