O God, Mine Inmost Soul Convert

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 88 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O God, mine inmost soul convert, And deeply on my thoughtful heart Eternal things impress; Give me to feel their solemn weight, And save me ere it be too late; Wake me to righteousness. 2. Before me place in dread array The pomp of that tremendous day, When Thou with clouds shalt come To judge the nations at Thy bar; And tell me, Lord, shall I be there To meet a joyful doom? 3. Be this my one great business here, With serious industry and fear Eternal bliss to ensure; Thine utmost counsel to fulfill, And suffer all Thy righteous will, And to the end endure. 4. Then, Savior, then my soul receive, Transported from the vale, to live And reign with Thee above, Where faith is sweetly lost in sight, And hope in full, supreme delight, And everlasting love.

May We Thy Precepts, Lord, Fulfill

Author: Edward Osler Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1. May we Thy precepts, Lord, fulfill And do on earth our Father’s will As angels do above; Still walk in Christ, the living Way, With all Thy children and obey The law of Christian love. 2. So may we join Thy name to bless, Thy grace adore, Thy power confess, From sin and strife to flee. One is our calling, one our name, The end of all our hopes the same, A crown of life with Thee. 3. Spirit of life, of love and peace, Unite our hearts, our joy increase, Thy gracious help supply. To each of us the blessing give In Christian fellowship to live, In joyful hope to die.
