Jesus, I my cross have taken

Author: Rev. Henry F. Lyte Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,312 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow Thee; Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my All shalt be: Perish every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known; Yet how rich is my condition: God and heaven are still my own. 2 Man may trouble and distress me, 'T will but drive me to Thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me, Heaven will bring me sweeter rest; O 't is not in grief to harm me While Thy love is left to me; O 't were not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee. 3 Take, my soul, thy full salvation, Rise o'er sin and fear and care; Joy to find in every station Something still to do or bear; Think what Spirit dwells within thee, What a Father's smile is thine, What a Saviour died to win thee: Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine? 4 Haste, then, on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee: God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission; Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; Hope soon change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Amen.

Edward Hopper Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 1,195 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Saviour, pilot me Over life's tempestuous sea; Unknown waves before me roll, Hiding rock and treacherous shoal; Chart and compass came from Thee: Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. 2 As a mother stills her child, Thou canst hush the ocean wild; Boisterous waves obey Thy will When Thou say'st to them, "Be still!" Wondrous Sovereign of the sea, Jesus, Saviour, pilot me. 3 When at last I near the shore, And the fearful breakers roar 'Twixt me and the peaceful rest, Then, while leaning on Thy breast, May I hear Thee say to me, "Fear not, I will pilot thee."

O God of earth and altar

Author: Gilbert K. Chesterton Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of earth and altar, Bow down and hear our cry; Our earthly rulers falter, Our people drift and die; The walls of gold entomb us, The swords of scorn divide; Take not Thy thunder from us, But take away our pride. 2 From all that terror teaches, From lies of tongue and pen; From all the easy speeches That comfort cruel men; From sale and profanation Of honor and the sword; From sleep and from damnation, Deliver us, good Lord! 3 Tie in a living tether The priest and prince and thrall; Bind all our lives together, Smite us and save us all; In ire and exultation Aflame with faith, and free, Lift up a living nation, A single sword to Thee.
