O Morning Star! how fair and bright

Author: Miss Winkworth; Philip Nicolai Hymnal: Church Book #405 (1890) Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O Morning Star! how fair and bright Thou beamest forth in truth and light! O Sov'reign meek and lowly, Thou Root of Jesse, David's Son, My Lord and Bridegroom, thou hast won My heart to serve Thee solely! Holy art Thou, Fair and glorious, All victorious, Rich in blessing, Rule and might o'er all possessing. 2 Thou Heavenly Brightness! Light Divine! O deep within my heart now shine, And make Thee there an altar! Fill me with joy and strength to be Thy member, ever joined to Thee In love that cannot falter; Toward Thee longing Doth possess me, Turn and bless me, For Thy gladness Eye and heart here pine in sadness. 3 But if Thou look on me in love, There straightway falls from God above A ray of purest pleasure; Thy Word and Spirit, Flesh and Blood, Refresh my soul with heavenly food, Thou art my hidden treasure; Let Thy grace, Lord, Warm and cheer O draw near me; Thou hast taught us Thee to seek since Thou hast sought us! 4 Here will I rest, and hold it fast, The Lord I love is First and Last, The End as the Beginning! Here I can calmly die, for Thou Wilt raise me where Thou dwellest now, Amen! Amen! Come, Lord Jesus, Soon release us, With deep yearning, Lord, we look for Thy returning.

Thee will I love, my Strength, my Tower

Author: John Scheffler; John Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #408 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Thee will I love, my Strength, my Tower, Thee will I love, my Joy, my Crown; Thee will I love with all my power, In all my works, and Thee alone: Thee will I love, till the pure fire Fill my whole soul with chaste desire. 2 I thank Thee, uncreated Sun, That Thy bright beams on me have shined; I thank Thee, who hast overthrown My foes, and healed my wounded mind; I thank Thee, whose enlivening voice Bids my freed heart in Thee rejoice. 3 Uphold me in the doubtful race, Nor suffer me again to stray; Strengthen my feet, with steady pace Still to press forward in Thy way; That all my powers, with all their might, In Thy sole glory may unite. 4 Thee will I love, my Joy, my Crown; Thee will I love, my Lord, my God! Thee will I love, beneath Thy frown Or smile, Thy sceptre or Thy rod. What though my flesh and heart decay? Thee shall I love in endless day. Languages: English Tune Title: ICH WILL DICH LIEBEN
