O pow'r of love, all else transcending
Author: H. Brueckner; G. Tersteegen Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #271 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 O pow'r of love, all else transcending,
In Jesus present evermore,
I worship Thee, in homage bending,
And sing of Thy celestial lore:
Yea, let my soul, in deep devotion,
Bathe in love's mighty boundless ocean.
2 Thou art my rest, no earthly treasure
Can satisfy my yearning heart,
And naught can give to me the pleasure
I find in Thee, my chosen part.
Thy love, so tender and caressing,
Is joy to me, and every blessing.
3 To Thee my heart and life be given,
Thou art in truth my highest Good;
For me Thy sacred side was riven,
For me was shed Thy precious blood.
O thou who art the world's salvation,
Be Thine my love and adoration.
O pow'r of love, all else transcending
The Lord my faithful Shepherd is
Author: C. Doving; C. Becker Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #260 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 The Lord my faithful Shepherd is,
And me He safely guideth;
I shall not want, for I am His,
Who all things good provideth:
I follow Him, I hear His voice,
In Him, my Lord, I do rejoice:
Blest am I in His keeping.
2 A tender shepherd leads his sheep,
Where pastures green are growing,
And there his flock doth guard and keep,
Beside still waters flowing.
Thus Christ, my Shepherd, leadeth me,
My soul and body feedeth He,
And for their wants provideth.
3 And if I ever go astray,
My wayward soul He turneth,
To save the lost, to guide the way,
For this He ever yearneth;
He leadeth me my soul to bless
In His own path of righteousness,
For His name's sake and glory.
4 Why should I ever fear, O Lord,
Whilst Thee I have beside me?
Thou by Thy Spirit and Thy word
Dost comfort and dost guide me;
In death's dark vale I fear no ill,
For Thou, O Lord, art with me still,
Thy rod and staff shall stay me.
5 Thou art my Host; for me Thy guest,
A table Thou providest:
Though foes be near, I am at rest;
Thou still with me abidest.
With oil anointest Thou my head;
On me Thy blessing rich is shed,
My cup with bliss o'erfloweth.
6 Thy goodness and Thy mercy, Lord,
Shall follow me, attending
The days Thou dost to me afford,
Until they reach their ending:
Thereafter shall I in Thy love
Dwell in Thy house in heaven above
Forever and forever.
The Lord my faithful Shepherd is
My faith looks up to Thee
Author: R. Palmer Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #266 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
Oh, 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,
Oh, 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 Savior, then in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul!
My faith looks up to Thee

Since on thine arm thou bid'st me lean,
Help me, throughout life's changing scene,

And earthly friends and joys remove?

How safe, how calm, how satisfied,
The souls that cling to thee.

Jesus, Jesus, only Jesus
Author: A. Crull; Ludaemilie Elisabeth von Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #261 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Jesus, only Jesus,
Can my heartfelt longing still;
See, I pledge myself to Jesus,
What He wills, alone to will.
For my heart, which He hath filled,
Ever cries: Lord, as Thou wilt.
2 One there is for whom I'm living,
Whom I love most tenderly;
Jesus, unto whom I'm giving,
What in love He gives to me;
Jesus' blood hides all my guilt;
Lead me, Lord, then, as Thou wilt.
3 Seems a thing to me a treasure,
Which displeasing is to Thee,
Then remove such dangerous pleasure;
Give instead what profits me.
Let my heart by Thee be stilled,
Make me Thine, Lord, as Thou wilt.
4 Grant that I may e'er endeavor
Thy good pleasure to fulfill;
In me, through me, with me ever,
Lord accomplish Thou Thy will.
Let me die, Lord, on Thee built,
When, and where, and as Thou wilt.
5 Lord, my praise shall be unceasing,
For Thou gav'st Thyself to me,
And besides so many a blessing
That I now sing joyfully:
Be it unto me, my Shield,
As Thou wilt, Lord, as Thou wilt.
Jesus, Jesus, only Jesus

For Thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree;
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow;

3 I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
And say, when the death-dew lies cold on my brow,

I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.
My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine
My dear Jesus I'll not leave

Hearing, taste and feeling fail me;
Though the earth's last light of day
Shall o'ertake and sore assail me;

My dear Jesus I'll not leave.
4 Nor will I my Jesus leave
When at length I shall come thither
Where His saints He will receive,
That in bliss they live together;
Endless joy to me He'll give;--
My dear Jesus I'll not leave.

Not for heaven's glorious pleasure;
Jesus who my soul did save
Shall be my Desire and Treasure;
He redemption did achieve:
My dear Jesus I'll not leave.

To His side still firmly clinging:
Christ leads all who Him receive
To life's waters ever springing.
Blessed they who to Him cleave!--

Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
Author: C. Wesley; N. L. von Zinzendorf Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #272 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
My beauty are, my glorious dress;
Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
With joy shall I lift up my head.
2 The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb,
Who from the Father's bosom came,
Who died for me, sin to atone,
Now as my Lord and God I own.
3 Lord, I believe Thy precious blood,
Which at the mercy-seat of God
Forever doth for sinners plead,
For me, e'en for my soul was shed.
4 Lord, I believe, were sinners more
Than sands upon the ocean-shore,
Thou hast for all a ransom paid,
For all a full atonement made.
5 When from the dust of death I rise
To claim my mansion in the skies,
E'en then shall be all my plea,--
Jesus hath lived,--hath died for me!
Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me
Author: W. Carey Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #275 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me
He is always, always near:
If I try to please Him truly,
There is naught that I can fear.
2 Jesus loves me,--well I know it,
For to save my soul He died;
He for me bore pain and sorrow,
Nailèd hands and piercèd side.
3 Jesus loves me,--night and morning
Jesus hears the prayers I pray;
And He never, never leaves me,
When I work or when I play.
4 Jesus loves me,--and He watches
Over me with loving eye,
And He sends His holy angels,
Safe to keep me till I die.
5 Jesus loves me,--O Lord Jesus,
Now I pray Thee by Thy love,
Keep me ever pure and holy,
Till I come to Thee above.
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me
Jesus, priceless treasure
Author: C. Winkworth; J. Franck Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #276 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
Source of purest pleasure,
Truest Friend to me:
Ah, how long I've panted
And my heart hath fainted,
Thirsting, Lord, for Thee.
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb!
I will suffer naught to hide Thee,
Naught I ask beside Thee.
2 In Thine arms I rest me,
Foes who would molest me
Cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
Every heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear;
Fires may flash and thunder crash,
Yea, and sin and hell assail me,--
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Hence, all earthly treasure!
Jesus is my pleasure,
Jesus is my choice;
Hence, all empty glory!
Naught to me the story,
Told with tempting voice;
Pain or loss, or shame, or cross,
Shall not from my Savior move me
Since He deigns to love me.
4 Fare thee well that errest,
Thou that earth preferrest,
Thou wilt tempt in vain;
Fare thee well, transgression,
Hence, abhorred possession,
Come not forth again.
Past your hour, O pride and power,
Worldly life, thy bonds I sever,
Fare thee well forever!
5 Hence, all fear and sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in;
Those who love the Father
Though the storms may gather,
Still have peace within;
Yea, whate'er I here must bear,
Thou art still my purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure.
Jesus, priceless treasure
Jesus, Jesus, come to me
Author: J. Scheffler; R. P. Dunn Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #278 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Jesus, come to me;
How my soul longs after Thee!
When, my best, my dearest Friend,
Shall our separation end?
2 Lord, my longings never cease;
Without Thee I find no peace;
'Tis my constant cry to Thee,--
Jesus, Jesus, come to me!
3 Mean the joys of earth appear,
All below is dark and drear;
Naught but Thy belovéd voice
Can my wretched heart rejoice.
4 Thou alone, my gracious Lord,
Art my shield and great reward;
All my hope, my Savior Thou,--
To Thy sovereign will I bow.
5 Come and dwell within my heart;
Purge its sin, and heal its smart;
See, I ever cry to Thee,--
Jesus, Jesus, come to me!
6 Patiently I wait Thy day;
For this gift alone I pray,
That, when death shall visit me,
Thou my light and life wilt be.
Jesus, Jesus, come to me

"Jesus sinners doth receive"
Author: E. Neumeister Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #267 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 "Jesus sinners doth receive:"
Word of surest consolation,
Word all sorrow to relieve,

Naught like this can comfort give:
"Jesus sinners doth receive."
2 On God's grace we have no claim,
Yet to us His pledge is given;
He hath sworn by His own name,
Open are the gates of heaven.
Take to heart this word and live:
"Jesus sinners doth receive."
3 When a helpless lamb doth stray,
After it, the Shepherd, pressing
Through each dark and dangerous way,
Brings it back, His own possessing.
Jesus, seeks Thee, O believe:
"Jesus sinners doth receive."
4 Sorrowing, Lord, I yield to Thee,
Weary of sin's heavy burden;
Let Thy grace my portion be,
All I crave for is Thy pardon,
This, Thy promise, I believe:

Hangs my helpless soul on Thee;

Freely let me take of Thee;
Spring Thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity.

From Satan's lies protect Thy child!
My soul with Thy whole strength prepare,
My cross in meekest love to bear:
Lord Jesus Christ!
My God and Lord! Thy gracious name
Preserve me from eternal shame.

To Abram's bosom bear and cheer,

From God shall naught divide me
Author: C. Winkworth; L. Helmbold Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #281 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 From God shall naught divide me,
For He is true for aye,
And on my path will guide me,
Who else should often stray;
His ever bounteous hand
By night and day is heedful,
And gives me what is needful,
Where'er I go or stand.
2 If sorrow comes, He sent it;
In Him I put my trust;
I never shall repent it,
For He is true and just,
And loves to bless us still;
My life and soul, I owe them
To Him who doth bestow them,
Let Him do as He will.
3 Whate'er shall be His pleasure
Is surely best for me;
He gave His dearest treasure,
That our weak hearts might see
How good His will toward us;
And in His Son He gave us
Whate'er could bless and save us;
Praise Him who loveth thus!
4 O praise Him, for He never
Forgets our daily need;
O blest the hour whenever
To Him our thoughts can speed;
Yea, all the time we spend
Without Him is but wasted,
Till we His joy have tasted,
The joy that hath no end.
5 For when the world is passing
With all its pomp and pride,
All we were here amassing
No longer may abide;
But in our earthly bed,
Where softly we are sleeping,
God hath us in His keeping,
To wake us from the dead.
6 Then, though on earth I suffer
Much trial, well I know
I merit ways still rougher,
Yet 'tis to heaven I go;
For Christ I know and love,
To Him I now am hasting,
And gladness everlasting
With Him my heart shall prove.
7 For such His will who made us;
The Father seeks our good;
The Son hath grace to aid us,
And save us by His blood;
His Spirit rules our ways,
By faith in us abiding,
To heaven our footsteps guiding;
To Him be thanks and praise.
From God shall naught divide me

Art all in all to me,
And weakness will be power
If leaning hard on Thee.
3 I could not do without Thee,
For, oh, the way is long,
And I am often weary,
And sigh replaces song:
How could I do without Thee?
I do not know the way;
Thou knowest, and Thou leadest,
And wilt not let me stray.
4 I could not do without Thee,
O Jesus, Savior dear;
E’en when my eyes are holden,
I know that Thou art near.
How dreary and how lonely
This changeful life would be,
Without the sweet communion,
The secret rest with Thee!
5 I could not do without Thee,
For years are fleeting fast,
And soon in solemn stillness
The river must be passed;
But Thou wilt never leave me,
And though the waves roll high,
I know Thou wilt be near me,
And whisper, "It is I."
I could not do without Thee
Who is there like Thee
Author: J. S. Stallybrass; J. A. Freylinghausen Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #282 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Who is there like Thee,
Jesus, unto me?
None are like Thee, none above Thee,
Thou art altogether lovely;
None on earth have we,
None in heav'n like Thee.
2 Love that warmly glowed,
Blood that freely flowed;
Life that stooped to death to save me,
And a deathless being gave me;
Bore my guilty load,
Brought me back to God!
3 Plant Thyself in me,
I will learn of Thee,
To be holy, meek, and tender,
Wrath and pride and self surrender:
Nothing shouldst Thou see
But Thyself in me.
4 When on death's cold strand
I one day shall stand,
Let Thy presence go beside me,
Through the gloomy waters guide me:
Grant me then to stand,
Lord, at Thy right hand.

There is a name I love to hear
Author: F. Whitfield Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #259 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 There is a name I love to hear;
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
2 It tells me of a Savior’s love,
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner’s perfect plea.
3 It tells me of a Father’s smile
That beams upon His child;
It cheers me through this little while,
Through desert, waste, and wild.
4 And there with all the blood-bought throng,
From sin and sorrow free,
I’ll sing the new eternal song
Of Jesus’ love to me!
There is a name I love to hear
Best of the weary
Author: R. Palmer Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #264 (1918) Topics: Faith in Jesus Lyrics: 1 Best of the weary,
Joy of the sad;
Hope of the dreary,
Light of the glad;
Home of the stranger,
Strength to the end;
Refuge from danger,
Savior and Friend.
2 Pillow, where, lying,
Love rests its head;
Peace of the dying,
Life of the dead.
Path of the lowly,
Prize at the end;
Breath of the holy,
Savior and Friend.
3 When my feet stumble,
I'll to Thee cry;
Crown of the humble,
Cross of the high:
When my steps wander,
Over me bend,
Truer and fonder,
Savior and Friend.
4 Ever confessing
Thee, I will raise
Unto Thee blessing,
Glory and praise:--
All my endeavour,
World without end,
Thine to be ever,
Savior and Friend.

We sorely need Thee, Fount of our salvation:

Make us Thy dwelling.

Eternal life where Thou forever livest;
There without ceasing, as we stand before Thee,
Let us adore Thee.

and from my smitten heart with tears
