Author: J. G. Small, 1817-1888 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #341 (1917) Topics: Abiding, presence of Christ; Presence, of Christ Lyrics: 1 I've found a Friend; O, such a Friend!
He loved me ere I knew Him;
He drew me with the cords of love,
And thus He bound me to Him;
And round my heart still closely twine
Those ties which nought can sever,
For I am His, and He is mine,
For ever and for ever.
2 I've found a Friend; O, such a Friend!
He bled, He died to save me;
And not alone the gift of life,
But His own self He gave me.
Nought that I have my own I call,
I hold it for the Giver;
My heart, my strength, my life, my all,
Are His, and His for ever.
3 I've found a Friend; O, such a Friend!
All power to Him is given,
To guard me on my onward course,
And bring me safe to heaven.
Th' eternal glories gleam afar,
To nerve my faint endeavour:
So now to watch, to work, to war,
And then to rest for ever.
4 I've found a Friend; O, such a Friend!
So kind, and true, and tender;
So wise a Counsellor and Guide,
So mighty a Defender!
From Him, who loves me now so well,
What power my soul can sever?
Shall life or death, or earth or hell?
No! I am His for ever. Languages: English Tune Title: CONSTANCE

Peace! doubting heart; my God's I am
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #540 (1917) Topics: Abiding, presence of Christ; Presence, of Christ Lyrics: 1 Peace! doubting heart; my God's I am;
Who formed me man, forbids my fear;
The Lord hath called me by my name;
The Lord protects, for ever near;
His blood for me did once atone.
And still He loves and guards His own.
2 When passing through the watery deep,
I ask in faith His promised aid,
The waves an awful distance keep,
And shrink from my devoted head;
Fearless their violence I dare;
They cannot harm, for God is there!
3 To Him mine eye of faith I turn,
And through the fire pursue my way;
The fire forgets its power to burn,
The lambent flames around me play;
I own His power, accept the sign,
And shout to prove the Saviour mine.
4 When darkness intercepts the skies,
And sorrow's waves around me roll,
When high the storms of passion rise,
And half o'erwhelm my sinking soul,
My soul a sudden calm shall feel,
And hear a whisper, "Peace: be still!"
5 Still near me, O my Saviour, stand!
And guard in fierce temptation's hour;
Hide in the hollow of Thy hand;
Show forth in me Thy saving power;
Still be Thy arms my sure defence;
Nor earth nor hell shall pluck me thence.

O Master, it is good to be
Author: Dean Stanley, 1815-1881 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #88 (1917) Topics: Abiding, presence of Christ; Presence, of Christ Lyrics: 1 O Master, it is good to be
High on the mountain here with Thee;
Where stand revealed to mortal gaze
The two great saints of other days,
Who once received on Horeb's height
The eternal laws of truth and right;
Or caught the still small whisper,
higher
Then storm, than earthquake, or than fire.
2 O Master, it is good to be
With Thee, and with Thy faithful three:
Here, where the apostle's heart of rock
Is nerved against temptation's shock;
Here, where the Son of Thunder
The thought that breathes, and word that burns;
Here, where on eagle's wings we move
With him whose last, best creed is love.
3 O Master, it is good to be
Entranced, enwrapt, alone with Thee;
Watching the glistering raiment glow,
Whiter than Hermon's whitest snow,
The human lineaments that shine
Irradiant with a light divine:
Till we too change from grace to grace
Gazing on that transfigured face.
4 O Master, it is good to be
Here on the holy mount with Thee;
When darkling in the depths of night,
When dazzled with excess of light,
We bow before the heavenly voice
That bids bewildered souls rejoice,
Though love wax cold, and faith be dim,
"This is My Son! O hear ye Him!" Languages: English Tune Title: STANLEY

Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear
Author: J. Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #208a (1917) Topics: Abiding, presence of Christ; Presence, of Christ Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear,
It is not night if Thou be near;
O may no earth-born cloud arise,
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes!
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
My wearied eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought, how sweet to rest
For ever on my Saviour's breast!
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
4 If some poor wandering child of Thine
Have spurned to-day the voice divine,
Now, Lord, the gracious work begin;
Let him no more lie down in sin.
5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor
With blessings from Thy boundless store;
Be every mourner's sleep to-night,
Like infants' slumbers, pure and light.
6 Come near and bless us when we wake,
Ere through the world our way we take;
Till, in the ocean of Thy love,
We lose ourselves in heaven above.

Look on Thy hands, and read it there;
But who, I ask Thee, who art Thou?
Tell me Thy name, and tell me now.

I never will unloose my hold!
Art Thou the man that died for me?
The secret of Thy love unfold;
Wrestling, I will not let Thee go,
Till I Thy name, Thy nature know.

Thy new, unutterable name?
Tell me, I still beseech Thee, tell;
To know it now resolved I am;
Wrestling, I will not let Thee go,
Till I Thy name, Thy nature know.

I hear Thy whisper in my heart;
The morning breaks, the shadows flee,
Pure, universal love Thou art:
To me, to all, Thy mercies move,
Thy nature and Thy name is Love. Languages: English Tune Title: CAREY'S

Lord Christ Jesus, Our Salvation
Author: Jan Hus; Dirk French Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #419 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ--Presence of Lyrics: 1 Lord Christ Jesus, our salvation,
every sinner's vindication,
gave us bread in his remembrance
as a sacrifice in semblance.
2 O that bread of yours, how holy,
which, Christ Jesus, you are solely!
Bread, a food so elemental,
yet supremely sacramental.
3 This is gift of sweetest savor,
feast bestowed by heaven's favor,
miracle and meal in union,
wondrous grace of our communion.
4 Hail, O form of God made human,
who God's unity illumine;
each takes pleasure in your being
who through eyes of faith is seeing.
5 No mere bread, but mediator -
God and man, our liberator
while on cross you hung suspended
till your life in flesh had ended.
6 Not enhanced by consecration,
unconsumed, without mutation,
parted not though bread be broken,
you bear godhood's every token.
7 Worthy to be angels' victual,
model for the saints' committal,
you the New Law validated
whom the Old had intimated.
8 O most wholesome balm of healing,
all our debt to sins repealing,
feed us; set us free from evil;
lead us in your light primeval.
9 O what wonders you have rendered
who, O Christ, your self have tendered
through your symbols of redeeming,
wine and brad in likeness seeming.
10 Bread and wine convey your presence
as a mystery in essence.
Yours be praise and adoration
unto every generation! Amen. Scripture: John 6 Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS CHRISTUS, UNSER HEILAND

Lord Jesus, in the days of old
Author: J. A. Noble, 1844- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #213 (1917) Topics: Presence, of Christ Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, in the days of old,
Two walked with Thee by waning light,
And love's blind instinct made them bold
To crave Thy presence through the night;
As night descends, we too would pray
O leave us not at close of day.
2 Day is far spent and night is nigh;
Stay with us, Saviour, through the night;
Talk with us, teach us tenderly,
Lead us to peace, to rest, to light;
Dispel our darkness with Thy face,
Radiant with resurrection grace.
3 The hours of day are glad and good,
And good thy gifts Thy hand bestows
The body's health, the spirit's food,
And rest, and after rest repose.
We would not lose day's golden gains,
So stay with us as daylight wanes.
4 Nor this night only, blessed Lord;
We every day and every hour
Would walk with Thee Emmausward,
To hear Thy voice of love and power;
And every night would by Thy side
Look, listen, and be satisfied. Languages: English Tune Title: COMPANION
