Jesus, I long for Thy blessed communion

Author: P. J. Hygom; Anon. Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #461 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I long for Thy blessed communion, Yearning for Thee fills my heart and my mind; Draw me from all that would hinder our union, May I to Thee, my beginning, be joined; Show me more clearly my hopeless condition; Show me the depth of corruption in me, So that my nature may die in contrition, And that my spirit may live unto Thee! 2 Mightily strengthen my spirit within me, That I may learn what Thy Spirit can do; O take Thou captive each passion and win me, Lead Thou and guide me my whole journey through! All that I am and possess I surrender, If Thou alone in my spirit mayst dwell, Everything yield Thee, O Savior most tender, Thou, only Thou, canst my sadness dispel. 3 O that I only might learn consecration, Make full surrender of heart day by day! O that my Jesus might be my sole portion, I am, alas! all too far, far away. Jesus, whose voice full of love's gentle warning, Gladly I follow, O give me Thy hand, That in pure holiness, faith's bright adorning, Like a true Christian I walk to the end. 4 Jesus, O hear Thou Thy dove's gentle cooing! Shepherd, go seek the lost, wandering lamb! Thou, who hast won me by love's tender wooing, Cleanse Thou my heart from its sin and its shame. May I not be like a sepulchre whited, Fair and all beautiful outside alone: But may Thy law in my heart be indited, That in full truth I may call me thine own. 5 Jesus, when shall I find rest in the haven? Heavy the burden, remove it from me! When shall I see Thee, my Savior, in heaven? Rise, Lord, and quiet the wild troubled sea! O loving Jesus, show mercy right speedy; Hide not Thy countenance always from me; Thou, purest wealth of the inwardly needy; Fill Thou my heart, precious Savior, with Thee. 6 Jesus, my love let not go unrequited: See my poor soul growing weary, O Lord. Let us, Immanuel, now be united, When Thou art with me, my soul is restored. Once Thou didst say, "They will hunger and perish, If I permit them to go on their way;" Love everlasting! Refuse not to nourish Souls that are hungering for fragments today. 7 Merciful Jesus, now hear how I bind Thee To the sure pledge of Thy covenant word: "Ask, and receive: when ye seek, ye shall find me;" Thus have Thy lips, ever faithful, averred. I with the woman of Canaan unresting, Cry after Thee till my longing is stilled, Till Thou shalt add, my petitions attesting, "Amen, yea, amen: it be as thou wilt!"

Heavenly Spirit, all others transcending

Author: J. N. Brun Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #377 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Heavenly Spirit, all others transcending, Thou who with Father and Son dost abide! Come Thou, our spirits in unity blending, Come and make ready the heavenly bride! Calling and gathering, and Jesus declaring, Building God's Church, shedding light from above, Come, O Thou Spirit of God, never tiring, Come and interpret God's wonderful love! 2 Merciful Jesus, with love never failing, Sending Thy Spirit, the pledge ever new, That Thy atonement for all is availing, Faith ever sees that Thy promise is true. Crowned are Thy servants with heavenly fire, Speaking with hearts and with tongues all aflame: Heavenly Spirit, our voices inspire That we may sing of his glorious name! 3 Heavenly Consoler, with unction celestial, Heal Thou the wounds of each sin-burdened heart! Strengthen our faith, and with zeal Pentecostal Fill our faint souls, and Thy blessings impart! Create within us new hearts and new spirits; Lead us in truth, and sustain us in woe; Teach us true faith in the dear Savior's merits, So that at death we Thy power may know!

Ever Content With The Ways Of My Father

Author: Paul E. Kretzmann Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #287 (1930) Meter: 11.10.11.10 D Lyrics: 1 Ever content with the ways of my Father: He knoweth best on what path I should go; Ever content in the blessed assurance That I make progress, no matter how show; Yielding my hands to His fatherly guidance, Since He on pathways of safety doth lead, Since He in kindness, when faint grow my footsteps, Ever my soul in His mercy doth feed. 2 Ever content with the burden He giveth: He knoweth best what His children can bear; Ever content, though the load seem oppressive, Though on all sides there be worry and care. This is my comfort, this eases my burden, This makes me cheerful to bear ev'ry cross, That is my stead Jesus bore all transgressions, That for my sake He endured untold loss. 3 Ever content--tho' it sometimes appeareth That He in anger hath hidden His face; Ever content, for His merciful promise Bids me believe His assurance of grace. I am a child of the heavenly Father; Why, then, should ever my heart fret and fear? I shall be with Him, in bliss and in glory, When my Redeemer once more will appear.

Rescue the perishing, care for the dying

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #267 (1898) Meter: 11.10 Lyrics: 1 Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o’er the erring ones, lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save. Though they are slighting Him, still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive; Plead with them earnestly, plead with them gently: He will forgive, if they only believe. 2 Down in the human heart, crushed by the tempter, Hope that lies buried, God's grace can restore: Touched by a loving heart, wakened by kindness, Chords that were broken will vibrate once more. Rescue the perishing, duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide. Back to the narrow way patiently win them, Tell the poor wanderer a Saviour has died.

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #266 (1898) Meter: 11.10 Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid; Star of the East, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Cold on His cradle the dew-drops are shining, Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall; Angels adore Him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all. 2 Shall we not yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom and offerings divine, Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would His favor secure; Richer by far is the heart's adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
