O God, Our Help in Ages Past
My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less
Author: Edward Mote Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,086 hymnals Topics: Death Prayer for help in Refrain First Line: On Christ, the solid Rock I stand Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness:
No merit of my own I claim,
But wholly lean on Jesus' Name.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]
3 His oath, His covenant and blood,
Support me in the sinking flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]
4 When I shall launch to worlds unseen,
O may I then be found in Him!
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]
Amen. Scripture: Hebrews 6:19 Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE
My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less
Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me
Author: Augustus Montague Toplady Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,901 hymnals Topics: Death Prayer for help in Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee:
Let the water and the blood
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,
Save me, Lord, and make me pure.
2 Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy Law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.
3 Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless, look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the fountain fly:
Wash me, Saviour, or I die!
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne;
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 61:2 Used With Tune: TOPLADY

How firm a foundation
Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2,127 hymnals Topics: God Guardian / Help First Line: How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith in God's excellent word!
What more can be said than to you hath been said,
to you that for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee; oh be not dismayed!
For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand
upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
the rivers of woe shall not thee overflow,
for I will be with thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
my grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply:
the flames shall not hurt thee; I only design
thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose
I will not– I will not– desert to his foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never– no, never– no, never forsake!" Used With Tune: ST. DENIO Text Sources: K in Rippon's Selection of Hymns 1787

God Is My Strong Salvation

What foe have I to fear?

My light, my help is near.

Firm to the fight I stand;
What terror can confound me,
With God at my right hand?

My soul, with courage wait;
God's truth be thine affiance,
When faint and desolate.
4 God's might thy heart shall strengthen,
God's love thy joy increase;
Mercy thy days shall lengthen;
The Lord will give thee peace.

Jesus, Saviour, Pilot Me
Author: Edward Hopper Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,178 hymnals Topics: Death Prayer for help in Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Saviour, pilot me
Over life's tempestuous sea;
Unknown waves before me roll,
Hiding rock and treach'rous shoal;
Chart and compass came from Thee:
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
2 As a mother stills her child,
Thou canst hush the ocean wild;
Boisterous waves obey Thy will
When Thou say'st to them, "Be still."
Wondrous Sovereign of the sea,
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
'Twixt me and the peaceful rest,
Then, while leaning on Thy breast,
May I hear Thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee."
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 8:23-27 Used With Tune: PILOT
Jesus, Saviour, Pilot Me

Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,205 hymnals Topics: Death Prayer for help in Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my Guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll,
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul.
Amen. Used With Tune: OLIVET

How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,621 hymnals Topics: Death Prayer for help in Lyrics: 1 How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear!
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole
And calms the troubled breast;
'Tis Manna to the hungry soul
And to the weary Rest.
3 Dear Name! The Rock on which I build,
My Shield and Hiding-place;
My never-failing Treasury, filled
With boundless stores of grace.
4 By Thee my prayers acceptance gain,
Although with sin defiled:
Satan accuses me in vain,
And I am owned a child.
5 Weak is the effort of my heart
And cold my warmest thought;
But when I see Thee as Thou art,
I'll praise Thee as I ought.
6 Till then I would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And may the music of Thy Name
Refresh my soul in death.
Amen. Scripture: John 14:13 Used With Tune: ST. PETER

and by thy sacrifice be led
