O Jesus, We Adore Thee

Author: Arthur T. Russell Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 55 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Jesus, we adore Thee, Upon the cross, our King! We bow our hearts before Thee, Thy gracious name we sing. That name hath brought salvation, That name in life our stay, Our peace, our consolation, When life shall fade away. 2. Yet doth the world disdain Thee, Still passing by the cross; Lord, may our hearts retain Thee; All else we count but loss. Ah, Lord, our sins arraigned Thee, And nailed Thee to the tree; Our pride, our Lord, disdained Thee; Yet deign our Hope to be. 3. O glorious King, we bless Thee, No longer pass Thee by; O Jesus, we confess Thee The Son enthroned on high. Lord, grant to us remission; Life through Thy death restore; Yea, grant us fruition Of life forevermore. Used With Tune: MEIRIONYDD

Come, bid my toils be ended, Let all my wand'rings cease; Call from the wayside lodging To Thy sweet home of peace! 3 There I shall dwell forever, No more a stranger guest, With all Thy blood-bought children In everlasting rest: The pilgrim toils forgotten, The pilgrim conflicts o'er, All earthly griefs behind us, Eternal joys before!

I Need Thee, Precious Jesus

Author: Frederick Whitfield Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 304 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I need thee, precious Jesus, for I am full of sin; my soul is dark and guilty, my heart is dead within. I need the cleansing fountain where I can always flee, the blood of Christ most precious, the sinner's perfect plea. 2 I need thee, precious Jesus, for I am very poor; a stranger and a pilgrim, I have no earthly store. I need the love of Jesus to cheer me on my way, to guide my doubting footsteps, to be my strength and stay. 3 I need thee, precious Jesus, and hope to see thee soon, encircled with the rainbow and seated on thy throne. There, with thy blood-bought children, my joy shall ever be, to sing my Jesus' praises, to gaze, O Lord, on thee.
