Lord of the Sabbath, hear our vows
Author: Dr. Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #247 (1917) Topics: Sabbath (the Christian) Vows; Vow, to God Sabbath; Sabbath (the Christian) Vows; Vow, to God Sabbath Lyrics: 1 Lord of the Sabbath hear our vows,
On this Thy day, in this Thy house;
And own, as grateful sacrifice,
The songs which from Thy servants rise.
2 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love,
But there's a nobler rest above;
To that our labouring souls aspire,
With ardent hope, and strong desire.
3 No more fatigue, no more distress
Nor sin nor hell shall reach the place;
No sighs shall mingle with the songs
Which warble from immortal tongues.
4 No rude alarms of raging foes;
No cares to break the long repose;
No midnight shade, no clouded sun,
But sacred, high, eternal noon.
5 O long-expected day, begin!
Dawn on these realms of woe and sin;
Fain would we leave this weary road,
And sleep in death, to rest with God. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBAN

I Love the Lord, the Fount of Life and Grace
Author: William Kuipers Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #116B (2018) Meter: 10.11.11.10 Topics: Vows Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, the fount of life and grace;
he hears my voice, my cry and supplication,
inclines his ear, gives strength and consolation;
in life, in death, my heart will seek his face.
2 The cords of death held me in deep despair;
the pangs of hell, like waves by tempest driven,
rolled o'er my soul; by grief and sorrow driven,
I turned in my distress to God in prayer.
3 I cried, "Deliver thou my soul, O Lord!"
Jehovah heard; I pledge him my devotion.
The Lord is just, his grace, wide as the ocean;
in boundless mercy he fulfills his word.
4 The Lord preserves the meek most tenderly;
brought nigh to death, in him I found salvation.
Come, thou my soul, relieved from agitation,
turn to thy rest; the Lord has favored thee.
5 Thou, O Jehovah, in thy sovereign grace,
hast saved my soul from death and woe appalling,
dried all my tears, secured my feet from falling.
Lo, I shall live and walk before thy face.
6 I have believed, and therefore did I speak
when I was made to suffer tribulation;
I said in haste and bitter desperation:
"All men are false, 'tis nought but lies they speak."
7 What shall I render to Jehovah now
for all the riches of his consolation?
With joy I'll take the cup of his salvation,
and call upon his name with thankful vow.
8 Before his saints I'll pay my vows to God;
e'en in death's vale he keepeth me from evil;
how dear to God the dying of his people!
Praise him, ye saints, and sound his name abroad.
9 I am, O Lord, thy servant, bound yet free,
thy handmaid's son, whose shackles thou hast broken;
redeemed by grace, I'll render as a token
of gratitude my constant praise to thee.
10 Jerusalem! Within thy courts I'll praise
Jehovah's name, and with a spirit lowly
pay all my vows. O Zion, fair and holy,
come join with me and bless him all thy days!

Blessed Saviour, Thou Hast Taught Me
Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #251 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Vows Of Confirmation Lyrics: 1 Blessed Saviour, Thou hast taught me
I should live to Thee alone,
All these years Thy hand hath brought me,
Since I first was made Thine own.
At the font my vows were spoken
By my parents in the Lord;
That my vows shall be unbroken,
At the altar I record.
2 I would trust in Thy protecting,
Wholly rest upon Thine arm;
Follow wholly Thy directing,
O my only Guard from harm!
Meet me now with Thy salvation,
In the Church’s ordered way;
Let me feel Thy confirmation
In Thy truth and fear to-day:
3 So that, faith and firmness gaining,
Hope in danger, joy in grief,
Now and evermore remaining
Steadfast in the true belief,
Resting in my Saviour’s merit,
Strengthened with the Spirit’s strength,
With Thy Church I may inherit
All my Father’s joy at length.
Amen.
