Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 1,167 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Savior, like a shepherd lead us, Much we need Thy tender care; In Thy pleasant pastures feed us, For our use Thy folds prepare: Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are; Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Thou hast bought us, Thine we are. 2. We are Thine; do Thou befriend us, Be the Guardian of our way; Keep Thy flock from sin defend us, Seek us when we go astray: Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Hear Thy children when they pray; Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Hear Thy children when they pray. 3. Thou hast promised to receive us, Poor and sinful though we be; Thou hast mercy to relieve us, Grace to cleanse, and pow'r to free: Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Early let us turn to Thee; Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Early let us turn to Thee. 4. Early let us seek Thy favor; Early let us do Thy will; Blessed Lord and only Savior, With Thy love our bosoms fill: Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Thou hast love us, love us still; Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus, Thou hast love us, love us still.

By The Thoughtless World Derided

Author: William B. Collyer Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 By the thoughtless world derided, Still I love the Word of God; ’Tis a chart by which I’m guided, Often ’tis a chastening rod; ’Tis a sword that cuts asunder All my pride and vanity When abased I lie and wonder That He spares a wretch like me. 2 This confirms me when I waver, Sets my trembling judgment right, When I stray, how much soever, This is my restoring light; Satan oft and sin assail me, With temptations ever new; Then, O nothing can avail me, ’Till my bleeding Lord I view. 3 Faith I need, O Lord, bestow it, Give my laboring mind relief; Oft alas! I doubt, I know it, Help, O help my unbelief; Dearest Savior, by Thy merit May I gain a future crown; Guide, O guide me by Thy Spirit, Till these storms are overblown.

God in Heaven Hath a Treasure

Author: P. S.; Emma F. Bevan Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God in heaven hath a treasure, Riches none may count or tell; Hath a deep eternal pleasure, Christ, the Son, He loveth well. God hath here on earth a treasure, None but He its price may know— Deep, unfathomable pleasure, Christ revealed in saints below. 2 Christ, the Light that fills the heavens, Shining forth on earth beneath, Through His Spirit freely given, Light of life ’midst shades of death. Down from heav’n’s unclouded glory God Himself the treasure brought, Closing thus His love’s sweet story With His sweetest, deepest thought. 3 God in tongues of fire descending, Chosen vessels thus to fill With the treasure never ending, Ever spent—unfailing still. Still unwasted, undiminished, Though the days of dearth wear on, Store eternally unfinished, Fresh, as if but now begun. 4 Earthen vessels, marred, unsightly, But the treasure as of old, Fresh from glory, gleaming brightly, Heav’n’s undimmed, unchanging gold. God’s own hand the vessel filling From the glory far above, Longing hearts forever stilling With those riches of His love. 5 Thus, through earthen vessels only, Shining forth in ceaseless grace, Reaching weary hearts and lonely, Beams the light in Jesus’ face. Vessels worthless, broken, bearing Through the hungry ages on, Riches giv’n with hand unsparing, God’s great gift, His precious Son. 6 Thus though worn, and tried, and tempted, Glorious calling, saint, is thine; Let the Lord but find thee emptied, Living branch in Christ the Vine! Vessels of the world’s despising, Vessels weak, and poor, and base; Bearing wealth God’s heart is prizing, Glory from Christ’s blessed face. 7 Oh, to be but emptier, lowlier, Mean, unnoticed, and unknown, And to God a vessel holier, Filled with Christ, and Christ alone! Naught of earth to cloud the glory, Naught of self the light to dim, Telling forth His wondrous story, Emptied—to be filled with Him.
