O Thou, from Whom all goodness flows

Author: Thomas Haweis Appears in 421 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Thou, from Whom all goodness flows, I raise my soul to Thee; In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes, Good Lord, remember me! 2 When on my aching, burdened heart My sins lie heavily, Thy pardon speak, new peace impart: Good Lord, remember me! 3 When trials sore obstruct my way, And ills I cannot flee; O let my strength be as my day: Good Lord, remember me! 4 When in the solemn hour of death I wait Thy just decree; Be this the prayer of my last breath: Good Lord, remember me! 5 And when before Thy throne I stand And lift my soul to Thee, Then, with the saints at Thy right hand, Good Lord, remember me! Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Cross and Comfort Used With Tune: REDHEAD, No. 66

Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 254 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, King most wonderful; thou conqueror renowned, thou sweetness most ineffable, in whom all joys are found! 2 When once thou visitest the heart, then truth begins to shine, then earthly vanities depart, then kindles love divine. 3 O Jesus, light of all below! Thou fount of living fire, surpassing all the joys we know, and all we can desire: 4 Jesus, may all confess thy name, thy wondrous love adore; and, seeking thee, themselves inflame to seek thee more and more. 5 Thee may our tongues for ever bless, thee may we love alone, and ever in our lives express the image of thine own. 6 Abide with us, and let thy light shine, Lord, on every heart; dispel the darkness of our night, and joy to all impart. 7 Jesus, our love and joy, to thee, the Father's only Son, all might, and praise, and glory be, while endless ages run.

Far From the World, O Lord, I Flee

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 269 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Far from the world, O Lord, I flee, From strife and tumult far; From scenes where Satan wages still His most successful war. 2 The calm retreat, the silent shade, With prayer and praise agree; And seem by Thy sweet bounty made For those who follow Thee. 3 There, if Thy Spirit touch the soul, And grace her mean abode, O with what peace, and joy, and love, She communes with her God! 4 There, like the nightingale, she pours Her solitary lays; Nor asks a witness of her song, Nor thirsts for human praise. 5 Author and guardian of my life, Sweet source of light divine, And, all harmonious names in one, My Savior—Thou art mine! 6 What thanks I owe Thee, and what love, A boundless, endless store, Shall echo through the realms above When time shall be no more!
