Oh, For a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #278 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame; A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! 2 Return, O holy Dove, return, Sweet Messenger of rest! I hate the sins that made Thee mourn, And drove Thee from my breast. 3 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from Thy throne, And worship only Thee. 4 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb. Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: DEVEREUX

Oh, For a Heart to Praise my God

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #279 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a heart to praise my God, A heart from sin set free! A heart that always feels Thy blood, So freely shed for me! 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My great Redeemer’s throne; Where only Christ is heard to speak, Where Jesus reigns alone. 3 An humble, lowly, contrite, heart, Believing, true, and clean; Which neither life nor death can part From Him that dwells within. 4 A heart in every thought renewed, And full of love divine; Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, A copy, Lord, of Thine! 5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Come quickly, from above; Write Thy new Name upon my heart, Thy new, best Name of Love. Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: BEATITUDO

Author: G. N. Allen, 1812-1877 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #280 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone, And all the world go free? No, there's a cross for every one, And there's a cross for me. 2 How happy are the saints above, Who once were sorrowing here! But now they taste unmingled love And joy without a tear. 3 The consecrated cross I'll bear, Till death shall set me free; And then go home, my crown to wear, For there's a crown for me. Amen.

God in the flesh for me, Brings me now nearer Thee, Nearer to Thee. 4 Lo! all my debt is paid, My guilt is gone, See! He has risen for me, My throne is won. Thanks, O my God, to Thee! None now can nearer be, Nearer to Thee! 5 Welcome, then, to Thy home, Blest One in Three! As Thou hast promised, come! Come, Lord, to me! Work, Thou, O God, through me, Live Thou, O God, in me, Ever in me! 6 By the baptismal stream, Which made me thine, By the dear flesh and blood Thy love made mine. Purge Thou all sin from me, That I may nearer be, Nearer to Thee! 7 Surely it matters not What earth may bring; Death is of no account, Grace will I sing. Nothing remains for me Save to be nearer Thee, Nearer to Thee! Amen. Topics: Sanctification Languages: English Tune Title: KEDRON
