Who, O Lord, with Thee Abiding

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Who, O Lord, with thee abiding, in thy house shall be thy guest? Who, his feet to Zion turning, in thy holy hill shall rest? He that ever walks uprightly, does the right without a fear; when he speaks, he speaks not lightly, but with truth and love sincere. 2 He that slanders not his brother, does no evil to a friend; to reproaches of another he refuses to attend. Wicked men win not his favor, but the good who fear the Lord; from his vow he will not waver, though it bring him sad reward. 3 To the needy freely lending, no excess he asks again; and the innocent befriending, he desires not praise of men. Doing this, and evil spurning, he shall nevermore be moved; this the man with thee sojourning, this the man by thee approved.

My Savior

Author: Henry M. Wharton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Jesus, Thou art ever near me Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art ever near me Blessèd Savior of my soul, And I hope to linger near Thee While the endless ages roll; Plunged in dark despair and sadness, Paths of sin and death I trod; Thou didst turn my grief to gladness, Taught me how to walk with God. 2 I have often grieved Thy Spirit, Put Thee to an open shame, Naught but wrath could hope to merit, Cast reproach upon Thy name; Down the lonely road I wandered, Of my doom was well aware; Every hope and project squandered, Hastening madly to despair. 3 Oh, how precious was the hour When Thy hand was laid on me, And by Thine almighty power, Broke my chains and set me free; Then my life was filled with glory, And my heart rejoiced in Thee; Now I love to tell the story How my blessèd Lord saved me. 4 Now no longer I am roaming In the wilderness of sin; As the days are going, coming, All is joy and peace within; Thou to me my strength hast given, And Thy grace so full and free, I am on my way to Heaven, Walking day by day with Thee Used With Tune: KARNATAKA Text Sources: Windows of Heaven (Baltimore: National Evangelization Society, 1898), alt.
