I look to thee in every need
Author: Samuel Longfellow, 1819 - 92 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #490 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ Comfort and Rest; The Life In Christ Contemplation Lyrics: 1 I look to thee in every need,
And never look in vain;
I feel thy strong and tender love,
And all is well again:
The thought of thee is mightier far
Than sin and pain and sorrow are.
2 Discouraged in the work of life,
Disheartened by its load,
Shamed by its failures or its fears,
I sink beside the road;
But let me only think of thee,
And then new heart springs up in me.
3 Thy calmness bends serene above,
My restlessness to still;
Around me flows thy quickening life,
To nerve my faltering will:
Thy presence fills my solitude;
Thy providence turns all to good.
4 Embosomed deep in thy dear love,
Held in thy law, I stand;
Thy hand in all things I behold,
And all things in thy hand;
Thou leadest me by unsought ways,
And turn'st my mourning into praise.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: O JESU

O blessed Sun whose splendor
Author: Richard Massie, 1800 - 87; Karl Johann Philipp Spitta, 1801 - 59 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #573 (1958) Topics: The Life In Christ Contemplation; The Life In Christ Service; The Life In Christ Comfort and Rest Lyrics: 1 O blessed Sun whose splendor
Dispels the shades of night;

Though fortune should bereave me
Of all I love the best,
If thou thy love still leave me,
I freely give the rest.
2 I know no life divided,
O Lord of life, from thee;
In thee is life provided
For all mankind and me;
I know no death, O Jesus,
Because I live in thee;
Thy death it is which frees us
From death eternally. A-men.
3 Lord, with this truth impress me,
And write it on my heart,
To comfort, cheer and bless me,
That thou my Saviour art.
Thy love it was which sought me,
Thyself unsought by me,
And for thy ransom bought me
To live for aye in thee.

For ever with the Lord!

Amen, so let it be;
Life from the dead is in that word,
'Tis immortality.
2 Here in the body pent,
Absent from him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
3 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near
At times to faith's foreseeing eye
Thy golden gates appear!
4 Ah, then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above!
5 For ever with the Lord!
Father, if 'tis thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfill.
6 Be thou at my right hand,
Then can I never fail;
Uphold thou me, and I shall stand;
Fight, and I must prevail.
7 So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
8 Knowing as I am known,
How shall I love that word,
And oft repeat before the throne,
'For ever with the Lord!' Languages: English Tune Title: CARLISLE
For ever with the Lord!
Thou hidden Love of God, whose height
Author: John Wesley, 1703 - 91; Gerhard Tersteegen, 1697 - 1769 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #391a (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ The Inner Life; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Thou hidden Love of God, whose height,
Whose depth unfathomed no man knows;
I see from far thy beauteous light,
Inly I sigh for thy repose.
My heart is pained, nor can it be
At rest, till it finds rest in thee.
2 Thy secret voice invites me still
The sweetness of thy yoke to prove;
And fain I would; but, though my will
Seem fixed, yet wide my passions rove.
Yet hindrances strew all the way;
I aim at thee, yet from thee stray. A-men.
3 Is there a thing beneath the sun
That strives with thee my heart to share?
Ah, tear it thence, and reign alone,
The Lord of every motion there;
Then shall my heart from earth be free,
When it has found repose in thee.
4 Each moment draw from earth away
My heart, that lowly waits thy call;
Speak to my inmost soul, and say,
'I am thy Love, thy God, thy All!'
To feel thy power, to hear thy voice,
To taste thy love, be all my choice.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. INGRID

Thou hidden Love of God, whose height
O for a faith that will not shrink
Author: William H. Bathurst, 1796 - 1877 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #395 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ Conflict and Victory; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink,
Though pressed by many a foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of poverty or woe;
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod,
But in the hour of grief or pain
Will lean upon its God;
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without,
That when in danger knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt;
4 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life’s last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heavenly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
5 Lord, give me such a faith as this,
And then, whate’er may come,
I’ll taste e’en now the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: WOLVERHAMPTON
O for a faith that will not shrink
Jesus, thy boundless love to me

No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, thine alone I am;
Be thou alone my constant flame.
2 O grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell, but thy pure love alone;
O may thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure, and my crown;
Strange fires far from my soul remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love.
3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray!
All pain before thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek, but thee.
4 Unwearied, may I this pursue,
Dauntless, to this high prize aspire;
Hourly within my soul renew
This holy flame, this heavenly fire;
And day and night be all my care
To guard this sacred treasure there. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETERSBURG (CHERUBIC HYMN)

Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #401 (1958) Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith; The Life In Christ Contemplation; The Life in Christ Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy love unbounded,
So full, so sweet, so free,
Leaves all our thoughts confounded
Whene'er we think of thee.
For us thou cam'st from heaven,
For us didst bleed and die,
That, ransomed and forgiven,
We might ascend on high. A-men.
2 We know that thou hast bought us,
And washed us in thy Blood;
We know thy grace hath brought us
As kings and priests to God,
We know that the blessèd morning,
Long looked for, draweth near,
When we, at thy returning,
In glory shall appear.
3 O let thy love constrain us
To give our hearts to thee;
Let nothing please or pain us,
Apart, O Lord, from thee;
Our joy, our one endeavor,
Through suffering, conflict, shame,
To serve thee, gracious Saviour,
And magnify thy Name.
Amen.
