Come, my soul, thy suit prepare

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #401 (1871) Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare; Jesus loves to answer prayer; He Himself has bid thee pray, Therefore will not say thee nay. 2 Thou art coming to a King,-- Large petitions with thee bring; For His grace and power are such, None can ever ask too much. 3 With my burden I begin: Lord, remove this load of sin; Let Thy Blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 4 Lord, I come to Thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There Thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. 5 While I am a pilgrim here, Let Thy love my spirit cheer; As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend, Lead me to my journey's end. 6 Show me what I have to do, Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me die Thy people's death.

Shepherd divine, our wants relieve

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #402 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Shepherd divine, our wants relieve, In this, our evil day: To all Thy tempted followers give The power to trust and pray. 2 Long as our fiery trials last, Long as the Cross we bear, O let our souls on Thee be cast In never-ceasing prayer. 3 The Spirit's interceding grace Give us in faith to claim; To wrestle till we see Thy face, And know Thy hidden Name. 4 Till Thou the Father's love impart, Till Thou Thyself bestow, Be this the cry of every heart-- I will not let Thee go: 5 I will not let Thee go unless Thou tell Thy Name to me; With all Thy great salvation bless, And say,--I died for Thee.

From every stormy wind that blows

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #403 (1871) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 From every stormy wind that blows, From every swelling tide of woes, There is a calm, a sure retreat; 'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat. 2 There is a place where Jesus sheds The oil of gladness on our heads-- A place than all beside more sweet; It is the blood-stained mercy-seat. 3 There is a spot where spirits blend, Where friend holds fellowship with friend; Though sunder'd far, by faith they meet Around the common mercy-seat. 4 There, there, on eagles' wings we soar, And time and sense seem all no more; And heaven comes down our souls to greet, And glory crowns the mercy-seat.

Prayer is the soul's sincere desire

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #404 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire Uttered or unexpressed; The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear; The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try; Prayer the sublimest strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice, Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice, And cry, "Behold he prays!" 5 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath, The Christian's native air; His watchword at the gates of death,-- He enters heaven with prayer. 6 The saints, in prayer, appear as one In word, and deed, and mind; While with the Father and the Son Sweet fellowship they find. 7 Nor prayer is made by man alone; The Holy Spirit pleads; And Jesus, on the eternal throne For sinners intercedes. 8 Thou by Whom we come to God, The Life, the Truth, the Way, The path of prayer Thyself hast trod; Lord, teach us how to pray.

Magnify Jehovah's Name

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #408 (1871) Lyrics: 1 Magnify Jehovah's Name; For His mercies ever sure, From eternity the same, To eternity endure. 2 Let His ransom'd flock rejoice Gather'd out of every land, As the people of His choice, Pluck'd from the destroyer's hand. 3 In the wilderness astray, In the lonely waste they roam, Hungry, fainting by the way, Far from refuge, shelter, home: 4 To the Lord their God they cry; He inclines a gracious ear, Sends deliverance from on high, Rescues them from all their fear. 5 Them to pleasant lands he brings, Where the vine and olive grow; Where from verdant hills, the springs Through luxuriant valleys flow. 6 O that men would praise the Lord, for His goodness to their race; For the wonders of His word, And the riches of His grace!

Before Jehovah's awful throne

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #409 (1871) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone; He can create, and He destroy. 2 His sovereign power without our aid, Made us of clay, and form'd us men; And when like wandering sheep we stray'd, He brought us to His fold again. 3 We are His people, we His care, Our souls, and all our mortal frame: What lasting honors shall we rear, Almighty Maker, to Thy Name? 4 We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs, High as the heaven our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise. 5 Wide as the world is Thy command, Vast as eternity Thy love; Firm as a rock Thy truth must stand, When rolling years shall cease to move.

Bless God, my soul; Thou, Lord, alone

Hymnal: HPEC1871 #410 (1871) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Bless God, my soul; Thou, Lord, alone Possessest empire without bounds, With honour Thou art crown'd thy throne Eternal majesty surrounds. 2 With light thou dost Thyself enrobe, And glory for a garment take; Heaven's curtains stretch beyond the globe, Thy canopy of state to make. 3 God builds on liquid air, and forms His palace-chambers in the skies; The clouds His chariots are, and storms The swift-wing'd steeds with which he flies. 4 As bright as flame, as swift as wind, His ministers heaven's palace fill; They have their sundry tasks assign'd All prompt to do their sovereign's will. 5 In praising god while he prolongs My breath, i will that breath employ; And join devotion to my songs, Sincere, as in Him is my joy.
