O Holy Saviour, Friend unseen

Author: Charlotte Elliott Meter: 8.8.8.6 Appears in 310 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Holy Saviour, Friend unseen, The faint, the weak on Thee may lean, Help me, throughout life's varying scene, By faith to cling to Thee. 2 Blest with this fellowship divine, Take what Thou wilt, I'll ne'er repine; E'en as the branches to the vine, My soul would cling to Thee. 3 Though faith and hope may long be tried, I ask not, need not aught beside; How safe, how calm, how satisfied, The souls that cling to Thee! 4 Blest is my lot, whate'er befall; What can disturb me, who appall, While as my Strength, my Rock, my All, Saviour, I cling to Thee? Amen. Topics: The Life in Christ Love and Communion; Christ Friend, The; Love and Communion Used With Tune: FLEMMING

Plumptre Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 56 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Light, whose beams illumine all From twilight dawn to perfect day, Shine Thou before the shadows fall That lead our wandering feet astray; At morn and eve Thy radiance pour, That youth may love, and age adore. 2 O Way, through whom our souls draw near To yon eternal home of peace, Where perfect love shall cast out fear, And earth's vain toil and wandering cease: In strength or weakness may we see Our heavenward path, O Lord, through Thee. 3 O Truth, before whose shrine we bow, Thou priceless Pearl for all who seek, To Thee our earliest strength we vow, Thy love will bless the pure and meek; When dreams or mists beguile our sight, Turn Thou our darkness into light. 4 O Life, the Well that ever flows To slake the thirst of those that faint, Thy power to bless what seraph knows? Thy joy supreme what words can paint? In earth's last hour of fleeting breath Be Thou our Conqueror over death. Amen.

O Love, how deep, how broad, how high!

Author: Benjamin Webb (1820-1885) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 140 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Love, how deep, how broad, how high! How passing thought and fantasy, That God, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortals’ sake! 2 For us baptized, for us He bore His holy fast and hungered sore; For us temptation sharp He knew; For us the Tempter overthrew. 3 For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed, For us He bore the cross's death; For us at length gave up His breath. 4 For us He rose from death again, For us He went on high to reign; For us He sent His Spirit here To guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. Amen.

Once to every man and nation

Author: James Russell Lowell Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 199 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Once to every man and nation Comes the moment to decide, In the strife of truth with falsehood, For the good or evil side; Some great cause, God's new Messiah, Offering each the bloom or blight, And the choice goes by forever 'Twixt that darkness and that light. 2 By the light of burning martyrs, Jesus' bleeding feet I track, Toiling up new Calvaries ever With the cross that turns not back; New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth. 3 Though the cause of evil prosper, Yet 't is truth alone is strong; Though her portion be the scaffold, And upon the throne be wrong, Yet that scaffold sways the future, And, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow Keeping watch above His own. Amen. Topics: Work; The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service; Discipleship and Service; Loyalty and Courage; Social Progress; Young People's Day Used With Tune: TON-Y-BOTEL

Sometimes a light surprises

Author: William Cowper Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 408 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord, who rises With healing in His wings: When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation We sweetly then pursue The theme of God's salvation, And find it ever new; Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let the unknown tomorrow Bring with it what it may. 3 It can bring with it nothing But He will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing Will clothe His people too: Beneath the spreading heavens No creature but is fed; And He who feeds the ravens Will give His children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig tree neither Their wonted fruit shall bear, Though all the field should wither Nor flocks nor herds be there; Yet God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice, For while in Him confiding I cannot but rejoice. Amen. Topics: The Life in Christ Comfort; Comfort; Confidence; Contentment; God Presence, His Abiding; Joy; Meditation Used With Tune: BENTLEY

Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh

Author: Harriet Beecher Stowe (1812-1896) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 352 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with Thee. 2 Alone with Thee, amid the mystic shadows, The solemn hush of nature newly born; Alone with Thee in breathless adoration, In the calm dew and freshness of the morn. 3 Still, still with Thee! As to each newborn morning A fresh and solemn splendor still is given, So does this blessed consciousness, awaking, Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heaven. 4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee; O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee. Amen. Topics: God the Father His Abiding Presence; God Presence, His Abiding; Inner Life, The Used With Tune: CONSOLATION
