Jesu, Lover of my soul
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Appears in 3,235 hymnals Topics: Lent Lyrics: 1 Jesu, Lover of my soul,
Let me to thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll,
While the tempest still is high:
Hide me, O my Saviour, hide
Till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide,
O receive my soul at last.
2 Other refuge have I none,
Hangs my helpless soul on thee;
Leave, ah, leave me not alone,
Still support and comfort me.
All my trust on thee is stayed,
All my help from thee I bring;
Cover my defenceless head
With the shadow of thy wing.
3 *Thou, O Christ, art all I want,
More than all in thee I find:
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is thy name,
I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am,
Thou art full of truth and grace.
4 Plenteous grace with thee is found,
Grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound,
Make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art,
Freely let me take of thee,
Spring thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity. Used With Tune: HOLLINGSIDE

Ever in thy heart to stay;

Hidden in thy wounded side.
2 If the evil one prepare,
Or the world, a tempting snare,
I am safe when I abide
In thy heart and wounded side.
3 If the flesh, more dangerous still,
Tempt my soul to deeds of ill,
Naught I fear when I abide
In thy heart and wounded side.
4 Death will come one day to me;
Jesu, cast me not from thee:
Dying let me still abide
In thy heart and wounded side. Used With Tune: SONG 13 Text Sources: Latin, 17th century

Author: Benjamin Francis, c. 1734 - 99; Joseph Grigg, c. 1720 - 68 Appears in 1,276 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Lent Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of thee?
Ashamed of thee, whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days?
2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star;
He sheds the beams of light divine
O'er this benighted soul of mine.
3 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend
On whom my hopes of heaven depend!
No; when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere his Name.
4 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may
When I've no guilt to wash away;
No tear to wipe, no good to crave,
No fear to quell, no soul to save.
5 Till then, nor is my boasting vain,
Till then I boast a Saviour slain;
And O may this my glory be,
That Christ is not ashamed of me. Used With Tune: FEDERAL STREET

Dearest Lord, for ever be.

Has atoned for all my pride;

To restore me to God’s favor;
Thousand, thousand thanks to Thee,
Dearest Lord, for ever be.

Who for me wast crucified;

For Thy wounds and pierced side,
For Thy love, so tried, unending,
For Thy death, all deaths transcending.

Author: James J. Cummins Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 94 hymnals Topics: Ash Wednesday and Lent Lyrics:
Jesus, Lord of life and glory,
Bend from heaven thy gracious ear;
While our waiting souls adore thee,
Friend of helpless sinners, hear:
From the depths of nature's blindness,
From the hardening power of sin,
From all malice and unkindness,
From the pride that lurks within,
When temptation sorely presses,
In the day of Satan's power,
In our times of deep distresses,
In each dark and trying hour,
When the world around is smiling,
In the time of wealth and ease
Earthly joys our hearts beguiling,
In the day of health and peace,
In the weary hours of sickness,
In the times of grief and pain,
When we feel our mortal weakness,
When all human help is vain,
In the solemn hour of dying,
In the awful judgment day,
May our souls, on thee relying,
Find thee still our hope and stay:
By thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Lord.
Amen.

Jesus Christ, my sure defence

And my Saviour, ever liveth;
Knowing this, my confidence
Rests upon the hope it giveth,
Though the night of death be fraught
Still with many an anxious thought.
2 Jesus, my Redeemer, lives!
I too, life must waken:
He will have me where He is;
Shall my courage then be shaken?
Shall I fear? Or could the Head
Rise and leave its members dead?
3 Nay, too closely am I bound
Unto Him by hope for ever;
Faith's strong hand the Rock hath found,
Grasped it, and will leave it never;
Not the ban of death can part
From its Lord the trusting heart.
4 What now sickens, mourns, and sighs,
Christ with Him in glory bringeth:
Earthly is the seed and dies,
Heavenly from the grave it springeth.
Natural is the death we die,
Spiritual our life on high.

Now from pleasures base and hollow,
Let us there with Thee have part,
Here on earth Thy foot-steps follow.

Must rest in faith alone;

Calms the sinner's deep distress.

Jeg gaar i Fare, hvor jeg gaar

Min Sjæl skal altid tænke,
At Satan allevegne staar
I Veien med sin Lænke;
Hans skjulte Helved-Brand
Mig let forvilde kan,
Naar jeg ei paa min Skanse staar;
Jeg gaar i Fare, hvor jeg gaar.
2 Jeg gaar i Trængsel, hvor jeg gaar;
Mod Synden skal jeg stride,
Om Gud med Korsets Ris mig slaar,
Det skal jeg taalig lide,
Tidt ingen Vei jeg ser,
Hvor jeg kan vandre mer,
Naar Modgangs Taage om mig staar;
Jeg gaar i Trængel, hvor jeg gaar.
3 Jeg gaar til Døden, hvor jeg gaar,
Og veed mig ikke sikker,
Ei nogen Dag og Time, naar
Han har mig alt i Strikker.
Et lidet Aandefang
Kan ende al min Gang,
At jeg i Evigheden staar;
Jeg gaar til Døden, hvor jeg gaar.
4 Jeg gaar blandt Engle, hvor jeg gaar;
De skal mig vel bevare,
Slet intet Satans Magt formaar
I saadan Himmel-Skare.
Bort Verdens Suk og Sorg!
Jeg gaar i Engleborg,
Trods nogen rører mig et Haar!
Jeg gaar blandt Engle, hvor jeg gaar.
5 Jeg gaar med Jesus, hvor jeg gaar,
Han har mig ved sin Side,
Han skjuler mig med sine Saar.
Og hjælper mig at stride,
Hvor han sit Fodspor lod,
Der sætter jeg min Fod;
Trods al den Del, mig ilde spaar,
Jeg gaar med Jesus, hvor jeg gaar.
6 Jeg gaar til Himlen, hvor jeg gaar;
Frimodig da mit Hjerte!
Kun did, hvor du en Ende faar
Paa al din Synd og Smerte!
Bort Verdens Lyst og Pragt,
Til Himlen staar min Agt!
Al Verdens Eie jeg forsmaar,
Jeg gaar til Himlen, hvor jeg gaar.

Hjertens søde Jesu, hør!
Jeg vil ligge her og tigge
Ved din store Naades Dør;
Lad dig finde, lad dig finde,
Som du mig har lovet før!
2 Kast et Øie paa min Møie,
At jeg dig kan komme nær,
Du alene kan mig tjene,
Dig jeg ene søger her!
Lad dig finde, lad dig finde,
Tag mig hen, o hav mig kjær!

Som du giver den, som bliver
Ved til sidste Øieblik;
Lad dig finde, lad dig finde!
Hvo dig faar, han alting fik.

Rinder paa mig blege Kind,

Og din smertefulde Død
Trøster mig i alle Stunder
Udi Livs- og Sjæle-Nød.
Falder noget Ondt mig ind,
Straks jeg tænker i mit Sind
Paa din Pine, som forbyder
Mig at drive Skjæmt med Lyder.
2 Om mit Kjød og Blod vil skjænke
Sig med Syndelysters Skaal,
Hvad du led, jeg monne tænke,
Og straks finde Ro og Taal.
Sætter Satan ind paa mig,
Som mit Skjold jeg viser dig,
Dine Saar og Blode-Strømme,
Straks maa han tilbage rømme.
3 Om mig Verden vil forlede
Hen paa Lysters brede Plan,
Hvor der er kun syndig Glæede,
Jeg da skuer, Frelsermand,
Dine Piners Byrde svar,
Du for mig udstandet har,
Saa kan jeg i Alvor blive,
Og al Verdens Lyst fordrive.
4 Ja mod al Ting, som mig krænker,
Give dine Vunder Kraft,
Naar sig Hjertet i dem sænker,
Finder jeg ny Levesaft;
Din den himmelsøde Død
Vender al min Nag og Nød:–
At du Salighed mig bragte,
Da du Døden for mig smagte.
5 Jeg paa dig min Tro har grundet,
Du min ene Tilflugt sand,
Og din Død har Do∂en bundet,
Saa den mig ei døde kan;
At jeg haver Deel i dig,
Trøster, trygger, redder mig,
Og din Naade mig har givet,
At staa op til Lys og Livet.
6 Har jeg dig udi mit Hjerte,
Du al Godheds Kilderspring,
Jeg da finder ingen Smerte,
End i Dødens sidste Sting.
Ingen Fiende skader mig,
Naar jeg skjuler mig i dig,
Hvo med dine Saar sig dækker,
Ham ti Livet du opvækker.

Jesus, I Will Ponder Now
Author: August Crull, d. 1923; Sigismund v. Birken Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Lent Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I will ponder now
On Thy holy Passion;
With Thy Spirit me endow
For such meditation.
Grant that I in love and faith
May the image cherish
Of Thy suff'ring, pain, and death
That I may not perish.
2 Make me see Thy great distress,
Anguish, and affliction,
Bonds and stripes and wretchedness
And Thy crucifixion;
Make me see how scourge and rod,
Spear and nails, did wound Thee,
How for man Thou diedst, O God,
Who with thorns had crowned Thee.
3 Yet, O Lord, not thus alone
Make me see Thy Passion,
But its cause to me make known
And its termination.
Ah! I also and my sin
Wrought Thy deep affliction;
This indeed the cause hath been
Of Thy crucifixion.
4 Grant that I Thy Passion view
With repentant grieving
Nor Thee crucify anew
By unholy living.
How could I refuse to shun
Ev'ry sinful pleasure
Since for me God's only Son
Suffered without measure?
5 If my sins give me alarm
And my conscience grieve me,
Let Thy cross my fear disarm,
Peace of conscience give me.
Grant that I may trust in Thee
And Thy holy Passion.
If His Son so loveth me,
God must have compassion.
6 Grant that I may willingly
Bear with Thee my crosses,
Learning humbleness of Thee,
Peace mid pain and losses.
May I give Thee love for love!
Hear me, O my Savior,
That I may in heaven above
Sing Thy praise forever.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 18:31-34 Used With Tune: JESU KREUZ, LEIDEN UND PEIN

Saa skal ingen Nød mig skille
Fra at elske dit Behag;

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 930 hymnals Topics: Fifth Sunday Before Lent Year C Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us: o'er the tumult
of our life's wild restless sea,
day by day his sweet voice soundeth,
saying, 'Christian, follow me':
2 As of old Saint Andrew heard it
by the Galilean lake,
turned from home and toil and kindred
leaving all for his dear sake.
3 Jesus calls us from the worship
of the vain world's golden store,
from each idol that would keep us,
saying, 'Christian, love me more.'
4 In our joys and in our sorrows,
days of toil and hours of ease,
still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
that we love him more than these.
5 Jesus calls us: by thy mercies,
Saviour, make us hear thy call,
give our hearts to thine obedience,
serve and love thee best of all. Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 1:9 Used With Tune: ST ANDREW

My beauty are, my glorious dress;
'Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
With joy shall I lift up my head.
2 Bold shall I stand in Thy great Day,
For who aught to my charge shall lay?
Fully through these absolved I am
From sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
3 This spotless robe the same appears,
When ruined nature sinks in years:
No age can change its constant hue;
Thy Blood preserves it ever new.
4 O let the dead now hear Thy voice;
Now bid Thy banished ones rejoice!
Their beauty this, their glorious dress,
Jesus, thy Blood and Righteousness!
5 When from the dust of death I rise,
To claim my mansion in the skies,
Even then this shall be all my plea,
"Jesus hath lived and died for me." Used With Tune: HERR JESU CHRIST MEIN'S LEBENES LICHT

Jesus, meek and lowly
Author: Henry Collins Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Lent Lyrics: 1 Jesus, meek and lowly,
Saviour, pure and holy,
On Thy love relying,
Hear me humbly crying.
2 Prince of life and power,
My salvation’s tower,
On the Cross I view Thee
Calling sinners to Thee.
3 There behold me gazing
At the sight amazing;
Bending low before Thee,
Helpless, I adore Thee.
4 By Thy red wounds streaming,
With Thy life-blood gleaming,
Blood for sinners flowing
Pardon free bestowing;
5 By that fount of blessing,
Thy dear love expressing,
All my aching sadness
Turn Thou into gladness.
6 Lord, in mercy guide me,
Be Thou e’er beside me;
In Thy ways direct me;
’Neath Thy wings protect me.
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. MARTIN

and, going, take thee to their home.

thy former mercies here renew;
here to our waiting hearts proclaim
the sweetness of thy saving name.

to strengthen faith and sweeten care,
to teach our faint desires to rise,
and bring all heaven before our eyes.

nor short thine arm, nor deaf thine ear:
O rend the heavens, come quickly down,
and make a thousand hearts thine own! Scripture: Jeremiah 29:12-13 Used With Tune: WAREHAM

Jesus, I know, hath died for me
Author: John Andrew Rothe; John Wesley Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Sundays in Lent; Lent, First Sunday; Lent, Second Sunday; Lent, Fifth Sunday Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I know, hath died for me;
Here is my hope, my joy, my rest;
Hither, when hell assails, I flee,
I look into my Saviour's breast:
Away, sad doubt and anxious fear!
Mercy is all that's written there.
2 Though waves and storms go o'er my head,
Though strength, and health, and friends be gone;
Though joys be withered all and dead,
Though every comfort be withdrawn;
On this my steadfast soul relies,
Father, Thy mercy never dies.
3 Fixed on this ground will I remain,
Though my heart fail and strength decay;
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth's foundations melt away.
Mercy's full power I then shall prove,
Loved with an everlasting Love. Used With Tune: ST. MATTHIAS
Jesus, I know, hath died for me
