As pants the hart for cooling streams

Author: Nahum Tate; Nicholas Brady Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A257 (1917) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 As pants the hart for cooling streams When heated in the chase, So longs my soul, O God, for Thee And Thy refreshing grace. 2 For Thee, my God, the living God, My thirsty soul doth pine; O when shall I behold Thy face, Thou Majesty Divine! 3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Hope still; and thou shalt sing The praise of Him Who is thy God, Thy health’s eternal spring. 4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, The God Whom we adore, Be glory, as it was, is now, And shall be evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SPOHR

Come, my soul, thy suit prepare

Author: John Newton Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A277 (1917) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare; Jesus loves to answer prayer; He himself has bid thee pray, Therefore will not say thee nay. 2 Thou art coming to a King: Large petitions with Thee bring; For His grace and power are such, None can ever ask too much. 3 With my burden I begin, Lord! remove this load of sin; Let Thy Blood for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 4 Lord, I come to thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There Thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. 5 Show me what I have to do, Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me die Thy people's death. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SOLITUDE

Not all the blood of beasts

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A339 (1917) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away; A Sacrifice of nobler name, And richer blood than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of Thine, While like a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear When hanging on the cursèd Tree; And knows her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To see the curse remove; We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice And sing His bleeding love. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CLYMER

Thine wholly, Thine alone I am; Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 O Love, how cheering is Thy ray! All pain before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Nothing desire or seek, but Thee! 3 Unwearied, may I this pursue, Dauntless, to this high prize aspire, Hourly within my soul renew This holy flame, this heavenly fire; And day and night be all my care To guard this sacred treasure there! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CATHERINE

What cheering words are these!

Author: John Kent Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A411 (1917) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these! Their sweetness who can tell! In time and to eternal days, "’Tis with the righteous well." 2 In every state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endure, And well when called to die. 3 ’Tis well when joys arise; ’Tis well when sorrows flow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. 4 ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying Love: And ’tis as well in God’s account, When they the furnace prove. 5 'Tis well when Jesus calls: "From earth and sin arise; Join with the hosts of ransomed souls, Made to salvation wise." Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HOLBORN

O God, the Rock of Ages

Author: Edward Henry Bickersteth Hymnal: LHTC1918 #A479 (1917) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O God, the Rock of Ages, Who evermore hast been, What time the tempest rages, Our dwelling-place serene: Before Thy first creations, O Lord, the same as now, To endless generations The Everlasting Thou! 2 Our years are like the shadows On sunny hills that lie, Or grasses in the meadows That blossom but to die; A sleep, a dream, a story By strangers quickly told, An unremaining glory Of things that soon are old. 3 O Thou, Who canst not slumber, Whose light grows never pale, Teach us aright to number Our years before they fail; On us Thy mercy lighten, On us Thy goodness rest, And let Thy Spirit brighten The hearts Thyself hast blessed. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MIRIAM
