O Love That Will Not Let Me Go
Author: George Matheson Meter: 8.8.8.8.6 Appears in 684 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:6 Lyrics: 1 O love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.
2 O light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
my heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.
3 O joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain
that morn shall tearless be.
4 O cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be. Topics: The Cross; Death and Dying; Eternal Life; Jesus Christ Love; Pain; Spiritual Peace; Rest; Trials Used With Tune: [O love that will not let me go]

Thy blessing, Lord, bestow;
The pow'r is Thine alone
To make it sprout and grow.

And Thou alone shalt have the praise!

From Thee are all our pow'rs;
Accept what is Thine own
And pardon what is ours.
Our praises, Lord, and prayers receive,
And to Thy Word a blessing give.

Now met before Thee here,
May meet together thus
When Thou and Thine appear
And follow Thee to heav'n, our home.
E'en so, amen, Lord Jesus, come!

O Jesus, When I Think of Thee
Author: George W. Bethune Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:21 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, when I think of thee,
thy manger, cross, and throne,
my spirit trusts exultingly
in thee, and thee alone.
2 I see thee in thy weakness first;
then, glorious from thy shame,
I see thee death's strong fetters burst
and reach heav'n's mightiest name.
3 O let me share thy holy birth,
thy faith, thy death to sin,
and, strong amidst the toils of earth,
my heav'nly life begin.
4 Then shall I know what means the strain
triumphant of Saint Paul,
“To live is Christ, to die is gain:
Christ is my All in all!”

Author: Simon Dach, 1605-59; Henry W. Longfellow, 1807-92 Meter: 10.10.5.10 Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:21 First Line: Oh, how blest are they whose toils are ended Lyrics: 1 Oh, how blest are they whose toils are ended,
Who through death have unto God ascended!
They have arisen
From the cares which keep us still in prison.
2 We are still as in a dungeon living,
Still oppressed with sorrow and misgiving;
Our undertakings
Are but toils and troubles and heartbreakings.
3 They meanwhile are in their chambers sleeping,
Quiet and set free from all our weeping;
No cross or sadness
There can hinder their untroubled gladness.
4 Christ has wiped away their tears forever;
They have that for which we still endeavor,
By them are chanted
Songs that ne'er to mortal ears were granted.
5 Come, 0 Christ, and loose the chains that bind us;
Lead us forth and cast this world behind us.
With You, the Anointed,
Finds the soul its joy and rest appointed.

O 'tis enough! I ask no more
Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:23 Lyrics: 1 O 'tis enough! I ask no more,

And silently resign my breath,
And sink into the shades of death.

Restor'd, resorb'd, and lost in thee. Topics: Christian experience Christian in the prospect of death; Life resigned; or, waiting to depart

Before Thy face I fall;
Accept, I pray.

By Thy rich grace and power,
My joy shall be;
How sweet it is to know,
Tho’ rough my path below,
In all the way I go
I walk with Thee!
3 Should mighty foes assail,
I can o’er them prevail,
And never fall;
For Thou almighty art
To shield my open heart
From ev’ry fiery dart;
On Thee I call.
4 And when Thou, Lord, dost come
To take me to Thy home,
My spirit free,—
“O death, where is thy sting?”
I shall in triumph sing,
As, borne on angels’ wing,
I rise to Thee. Topics: Consecration Used With Tune: [O Christ, to Thee I live]
