Answer, if mine thou art; Whisper within, thou love divine, And cheer my drooping heart. 4 Behold, for me the Victim bleeds-- His wounds are open wide; For me the blood of sprinkling pleads, And speaks me justified.

I Bow My Forehead to the Dust

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Hymnal: The Hymnbook #109 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Job 42:5-6 Lyrics: 1 I bow my forehead to the dust, I veil mine eyes for shame, And urge, in trembling self-distrust, A prayer without a claim. No offering of mine own I have, No works my faith to prove; I can but give the gifts He gave, And plead His love for love. 2 I know not what the future hath Of marvel or surprise, Assured alone that life and death His mercy underlies. And so beside the silent sea I wait the muffled oar: No harm from Him can come to me On ocean or on shore. 3 I know not where His islands lift Their fronded palms in air; I only know I cannot drift Beyond His love and care. And Thou, O Lord, by whom are seen Thy creatures as they be, Forgive me if too close I lean My human heart on Thee. Amen.

It is a thing most wonderful

Author: W. Walsham How, 1823-1897 Hymnal: Common Praise #109 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Job 42:3 Lyrics: 1 It is a thing most wonderful, almost too wonderful to be, that God's own Son should come from heaven, and die to save a child like me. 2 And yet I know that it is true: he chose a poor and humble lot, and wept and toiled and mourned and died for love of those who loved him not. 3 I cannot tell how he could love a child so weak and full of sin; his love must be most wonderful, if he could die my love to win. 4 I sometimes think about the cross, and shut my eyes, and try to see the cruel nails and crown of thorns, and Jesus crucified for me. 5 But even could I see him die, I could but see a little part of that great love which, like a fire, is always burning in his heart. 6 It is most wonderful to know his love for me so free and sure; but 'tis more wonderful to see my love for him so faint and poor. 7 And yet I want to love thee, Lord; O light the flame within my heart, and I will love thee more and more, until I see thee as thou art.

Father of lights, from whom proceed

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #366 (1873) Scripture: Job 42:6 Lyrics: 1 Father of lights, from whom proceeds Whate'er thy every creature needs; Whose goodness, providently nigh, Feeds the young ravens when they cry; To thee I look; my heart prepare; Suggest and hearken to my prayer. 2 Since by thy light myself I see Naked, and poor, and void of thee, Thine eyes must all my thoughts survey, Preventing what my lips would say: Thou seest my wants; for help they call And, ere I speak, thou know'st them all. 3 Fain would I know, as known by thee, And feel the indigence I see; Fain would I all my vileness own, And deep beneath the burden groan; Abhor the pride that lurks within, Detest and loathe myself and sin. 4 Ah, give me, Lord myself to feel; My total misery reveal: Ah, give me Lord, I still would say, A heart to mourn, a heart to pray: My business this, my only care-- My life, my every breath, be prayer.
