Is Your All on the Alter

Author: Elisha A. Hoffman Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #179 (1976) Topics: Contentment First Line: You have longed for sweet peace Refrain First Line: Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid? Lyrics: 1 You have longed for sweet peace, and for faith to increase, And have earnestly, fervently prayed; But you cannot have rest, or be perfectly blest, Until all on the altar is laid. Refrain: Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid? Your heart, does the Spirit control? You can only be blest and have peace and sweet rest, As you yield him your body and soul. 2 Would you walk with the Lord in the light of His Word, And have peace and contentment alway? You must do His sweet will to be free from all ill, On the altar your all you must lay. [Refrain] 3 O we never can know what the Lord will bestow Of the blessings for which we have prayed, Till our body and soul He doth fully control, And our all on the altar is laid. [Refrain] 4 Who can tell all the love He will send from above, And how happy our hearts will be made, Of the fellowship sweet we shall share at His feet When our all on the altar is laid? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [You have longed for sweet peace]

"Looking unto Jesus"

Author: John N. Darby Hymnal: Laudes Domini #336 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Lyrics: 1 O eyes that are weary, and hearts that are sore! Look off unto Jesus, now sorrow no more! The light of his countenance shineth so bright, That here, as in heaven, there need be no night. 2 While looking to Jesus, my heart cannot fear; I tremble no more when I see Jesus near; I know that his presence my safeguard will be, For, "Why are you troubled," he saith unto me. 3 Still looking to Jesus, oh, may I be found, When Jordan's dark waters encompass me round; They bear me away in his presence to be: I see him still nearer whom always I see. 4 Then, then, shall I know the full beauty and grace Of Jesus, my Lord, when I stand face to face; Shall know how his love went before me each day, And wonder that ever my eyes turned away.

Psalm 23

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Laudes Domini #337 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know; I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest; He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when oppressed. 2 Through the valley and shadow of death though I stray, Since thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear; Thy rod shall defend me, thy staff be my stay; No harm can befall, with my Comforter near. 3 In the midst of affliction, my table is spread; With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er; With perfume and oil thou anointest my head; Oh, what shall I ask of thy providence more? 4 Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God! Still follow my steps till I meet thee above; I seek, by the path which my forefathers trod Through the land of their sojourn, thy kingdom of love. Languages: English

"Faint, yet pursuing"

Author: John N. Darby Hymnal: Laudes Domini #338 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: Though faint, yet pursuing, we go on our way Lyrics: 1 Though faint, yet pursuing, we go on our way; The Lord is our Leader, his word is our stay; Tho' suffering, and sorrow, and trial be near, The Lord is our Refuge, and whom can we fear? 2 He raiseth the fallen, he cheereth the faint; The weak, and oppressed--he will hear their complaint; The way may be weary, and thorny the road, But how can we falter? our help is in God! 3 And to his green pastures our footsteps he leads; His flock in the desert how kindly he feeds! The lambs in his bosom he tenderly bears, And brings back the wanderers all safe from the snares. 4 Though clouds may surround us, our God is our light; Though storms rage around us, our God is our might; So, faint yet pursuing, still onward we come; The Lord is our Leader, and heaven is our home!

Our Master

Author: John M. Neale Hymnal: Laudes Domini #339 (1890) Topics: Contentment; Contentment First Line: Art thou weary, art thou languid Lyrics: 1 Art thou weary, art thou languid, Art thou sore distressed? "Come to me," saith One, "and coming, Be at rest." 2 Hath he marks to lead me to him, If he be my Guide? "In his feet and hands are wound-prints, And his side." 3 Is there diadem, as Monarch, That his brow adorns? "Yes, a crown, in very surety; But of thorns." 4 If I find him, if I follow, What his guerdon here? "Many a sorrow, many a labor, Many a tear." 5 If I still hold closely to him, What hath he at last? "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan passed." 6 If I ask him to receive me, Will he say me nay? "Not till earth, and not till heaven Pass away." 7 Finding, following, keeping, struggling, Is he sure to bless? "Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs, Answer, Yes."
