O that I could repent

Hymnal: Hymns and Songs #101 (1887) Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #110 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And must this body die, This mortal frame decay? And must these active limbs of mine Lie mouldering in the clay? 2 God my Redeemer lives, And often from the skies Looks down and watches all my dust, Till He shall bid it rise. 3 Arrayed in glorious grace Shall these vile bodies shine, And every shape, and every face, Look heavenly and divine. 4 These lively hopes we owe To Jesus' dying love: We would adore His grace below, And sing His power above. 5 Dear Lord, accept the praise Of these our humble songs, Till tunes of nobler sound we raise With our immortal tongues.

My soul be on thy guard

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #111 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, be on thy guard; Ten thousand foes arise; The hosts of sin are pressing hard To draw thee from the skies. 2 O watch, and fight, and pray! The battle ne'er give o'er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. 3 Ne'er think the victory won, Nor lay thine armor down; Thine arduous work will not be done Till thou obtain thy crown. 4 Fight on, my soul, till death Shall bring thee to thy God: He'll take thee, at thy parting breath, To His divine abode.

When sorrow and remorse

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #112 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When sorrow and remorse Prey at my heart, to Thee I look, who on the holy cross Was sacrificed for me. 2 Thy passion, Lord, inspires My spirit day by day, That I from all low, dark desires Have strength to flee away. 3 Whate'er the burden be, The cross upon me laid, Or want or shame, I look to Thee: Be Thou, O Christ, my aid. 4 And let Thy sorrows cheer My soul when I depart: Give strength to cast away all fear, Console, sustain my heart. 5 Since Thou hast died for me, Help me to trust Thy grace, That Thou wilt take me up to Thee, Where I shall see Thy face.

Forever with the Lord!

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #113 (1898) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Forever with the Lord! Amen! so let it be! Life from the dead is in that word, And immortality. 2 Here in the body pent, Absent from Him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. 3 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul, how near At times, to faith's foreseeing eye, The golden gates appear. 4 Ah! then my spirit faints To reach the land I love, The bright inheritance of saints, Jerusalem above! 5 Then, then I feel that He, Remembered or forgot, The Lord, is never far from me, Though I perceive Him not. 6 So when my latest breath Shall rend the veil in twain, By death I shall escape from death, And life eternal gain.
