O Lord, My Best Desire Fulfill

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11912 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my best desire fulfill, And help me to resign, Life, health, and comfort to Thy will, And make Thy pleasure mine. 2 Why should I shrink at Thy command, Whose love forbids my fears? Or tremble at the gracious hand That wipes away my tears? 3 No, let me rather freely yield What most I prize to Thee; Who never hast a good withheld, Or wilt withhold from me. 4 Thy favor, all my journey through, Thou art engaged to grant; What else I want, or think I do, ’Tis better still to want. 5 Wisdom and mercy guide my way, Shall I resist them both? A poor blind creature of a day, And crushed before the moth! 6 But ah! my inward spirit cries, Still bind me to Thy sway; Else the next cloud that veils my skies Drives all these thoughts away.

The Savior, What A Noble Flame

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11921 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The Savior, what a noble flame Was kindled in His breast: When hasting to Jerusalem He marched before the rest! 2 Good-will to men and zeal to God, His every thought engross; He longs to be baptized with blood, He pants to reach the cross. 3 With all His sufferings full in view, And woes, to us, unknown, Forth to the task His Spirit flew, ’Twas love that urged Him on. 4 Lord, we return Thee what we can! Our hearts shall sound abroad Salvation, to the dying Man, And to the rising God! 5 And while Thy bleeding glories here Engage our wondering eyes; We learn our lighter cross to bear, And hasten to the skies.

I Am, Saith Christ

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11926 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: "I am," saith Christ, our glorious head Lyrics: 1 "I am," saith Christ, our glorious head (May we attention give), “The resurrection of the dead, The life of all that live. 2 "By faith in Me, the soul receives New life, though dead before; And he that in My name believes, Shall live, to die no more. 3 "The sinner, sleeping in his grave, Shall at My voice awake; And when I once begin to save, My work I ne’er forsake." 4 Fulfill Thy promise, gracious Lord, On us assembled here; Put forth Thy spirit with the Word, And cause the dead to hear. 5 Preserve the power of faith alive, In those who love Thy name; For sin and Satan daily strive To quench the sacred flame. 6 Thy power and mercy first prevailed, From death to set us free; And often since our life had failed If not renewed by Thee. 7 To Thee we look, to Thee we bow; To Thee for help we call; Our life and resurrection Thou, Our hope, our joy, our all.

Father Above The Concave Sky

Author: Daniel A. Payne, 1811-1893 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11966 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father above the concave sky, Enthroned in light profound, At Thy command, the lightnings fly, And thunders roar around. 2 O who can see the beaming sun, The smiling moon at night, The snowy clouds, the countless stars, Enrobed with dazzling light, 3 And yet refuse to sing Thy praise, In sweetest notes of love? Or echo to angelic lays, Which fill the worlds above? 4 Whene’er I tread the blooming plains And pluck the fragrant flower, The luscious fruits, the yellow grains, I see Thy matchless power. 5 What moves on earth, or wings the air, Or swims the swelling sea, Is but a ray of life to point Immortal man to Thee.

Through Sorrow's Night And Danger's Path

Author: Henry K. White, 1785-1806 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11980 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Through sorrow’s night and danger’s path Lyrics: 1 Through sorrow’s night and danger’s path, Amid the deepening gloom, We soldiers of an injured king Are marching to the tomb. 2 There, when the turmoil is no more, And all our powers decay, Our cold remains in solitude Shall sleep the years away. 3 Our labors done, securely laid In this our last retreat, Unheeded o’er our silent dust The storms of life shall beat. 4 Yet not thus lifeless, thus inane, The vital spark shall lie, For o’er life’s wreck that spark shall rise To seek its kindred sky. 5 These ashes too, this little dust, Our Father’s care shall keep, Till the last angel rise, and break The long and dreary sleep. 6 Then love’s soft dew o’er every eye Shall shed its mildest rays, And dust, long silent, loud will burst With shouts of endless praise.

O Lord, Another Day Is Flown

Author: Henry K. White, 1785-1806 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11981 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, another day is flown, And we, a lonely band, Are met once more before Thy throne, To bless Thy fostering hand. 2 And wilt Thou bend a listening ear To praises low as ours? Thou wilt! for Thou dost love to hear The song which meekness pours. 3 And Jesus, Thou Thy smiles wilt deign As we before Thee pray; For Thou didst bless the infant train, And we are less then they. 4 Thy heav’nly grace to each impart; All evil far remove; And shed abroad in every heart Thine everlasting love. 5 And Thou wilt turn our wandering feet, And Thou wilt bless our way, Till worlds shall fade, and faith shall greet The dawn of endless day. 6 Our souls, obedient to Thy sway, In Christian bonds unite; Let peace and love conclude the day, And hail the morning light. 7 Thus chastened, cleansed, entirely Thine, A flock by Jesus led— The sun of holiness shall shine In glory on our head.

My Barns Are Full

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12032 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: My barns are full, my stores increase Lyrics: 1 "My barns are full, my stores increase, And now, for many years, Soul, eat and drink, and take thine ease, Secure from wants and fears." 2 Thus while a worldling boasted once, As many now presume; He heard the Lord Himself pronounce His sudden, awful doom. 3 "This night, vain fool, thy soul must pass Into a world unknown; And who shall then the stores possess Which thou hast called thine own?" 4 Thus blinded mortals fondly scheme For happiness below; Till death disturbs the pleasing dream, And they awake to woe. 5 Ah! who can speak the vast dismay That fills the sinner’s mind; When torn, by death’s strong hand, away, He leaves his all behind. 6 Wretches, who cleave to earthly things, But are not rich to God; Their dying hour is full of stings, And hell their dark abode. 7 Dear Savior, make us timely wise, Thy Gospel to attend; That we may live above the skies, When this poor life shall end.

In Mercy, Not In Wrath, Rebuke

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12038 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 In mercy, not in wrath, rebuke Thy feeble worm, my God! My spirit dreads Thine angry look, And trembles at Thy rod. 2 Have mercy, Lord, for I am weak, Regard my heavy groans; O let Thy voice of comfort speak, And heal my broken bones! 3 By day my busy beating head Is filled with anxious fears; By night, upon my restless bed, I weep a flood of tears. 4 Thus desolate I sit and mourn, Mine eyes grow dull with grief; How long, my Lord, ere Thou return, And bring my soul relief? 5 O come and show Thy power to save, And spare my fainting breath; For who can praise Thee in the grave, Or sing Thy name in death? 6 Hear Satan, cruel and envious foe, Insult me in my pain; He smiles to see me brought so low, And tells me hope is vain. 7 But hence, thou enemy, depart! Nor tempt me to despair; My Savior comes to cheer my heart, The Lord has heard my prayer. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

The Mercies Of My God And King

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12055 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The mercies of my God and King My tongue shall still pursue: O happy they who, while they sing Those mercies, share them too! 2 As bright and lasting as the sun, As lofty as the sky, From age to age Thy truth shall run, And chance and change defy. 3 The covenant of the King of kings Shall stand for ever sure; And ’neath the shadow of Thy wings Thy saints repose secure. 4 Thine is the earth, and Thine the skies, Created at Thy will: The waves at Thy command arise, At Thy command are still. 5 In earth below, in Heav’n above, Who, who is Lord like Thee? O spread the Gospel of Thy love Till all Thy glories see. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANNE

The Bird, Let Loose In Eastern Skies

Author: Thomas Moore Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12059 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The bird, let loose in eastern skies, When hastening fondly home, Ne’er stoops to earth her wing, nor flies Where idle warblers roam. 2 But high she shoots through air and light, Above all low delay, Where nothing earthly bounds her flight, Nor shadow dims her way. 3 So grant me, God, from every care And stain of passion free, Aloft, through virtue’s purer air, To hold my course to Thee! 4 No sin to cloud, no lure to stay My soul, as home she springs— Thy sunshine on her joyful way, Thy freedom in her wings!
