Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly Hymnal: Voices United #378 (1996) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: God Love for; Love for God/Christ Lyrics: 1 Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
wean it from earth, through all its pulses move;
stoop to my weakness, strength to me impart,
and make me love you as I ought to love.
2 I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies,
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3 Hast you not bid me love you, God and King;
all, all your own, soul, heart and strength and mind?
I see your cross: there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek you and O let me find!
4 Teach me to love you as your angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame,
the baptism of the heaven-descended dove,
my heart an altar and your love the flame. Tune Title: MORECAMBE

O for a Heart to Praise My God
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Worship (3rd ed.) #591 (1986) Topics: Love for God Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God,
A heart from sin set free,
A heart that always feels your 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 A humble, lowly, contrite heart,
Believing, true, and clean,
Which neither life nor death can part
From Him who dwells within:
4 A heart in ev'ry thought renewed,
A heart whose love endures;
So perfect, right, and pure, and good,
A copy, Lord, of yours.
5 Your nature, gracious Lord, impart;
Come quickly from above,
Write your new name upon my heart,
Your new, best name of love. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: O FOR A HEART
O for a Heart to Praise My God
