O Fount of Good, for All Your Love

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-51; Edward Osler, 1798-1863 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 84 hymnals First Line: O Fount of good, for all our love Lyrics: 1 O Fount of good, for all your love Our true thanks should be paid. What can we render, Lord, to you, When you own all that's made? 2 But you have needy brothers here, Partakers of your grace, Whose names you will yourself confess Before the Father's face. 3 In their sad accents of distress Your pleading voice is heard; You may in them be clothed and fed And visited and cheered. 4 Then help us, Lord, your yoke to wear And gladly do your will, Each other's daily burdens share, The law of love fulfill. 5 Your face with rev'rence and with love We in the poor will view, And, while we minister to them, We do it as to you.

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Fill thou my life, O Lord my God, in ev'ry part with praise, that my whole being may proclaim thy being and thy ways. 2 Not for the lip of praise alone, nor e'en the praising heart, I ask, but for a life made up of praise in ev'ry part; 3 Praise in the common things of life, its goings out and in, praise in each duty and each deed, however small and mean. 4 Fill ev'ry part of me with praise; let all my being speak of thee and of they love, O Lord, poor though I be, and weak. 5 So shalt thou, Lord, from me, e'en me, receive the glory due, and so shall I begin on earth the song forever new. 6 So shall no part of day or night from sacredness be free: but all my life, in ev'ry step, be fellowship with thee.

Most ancient of all mysteries

Author: F. W. Faber, 1814-63 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Most ancient of all mysteries, Before thy throne we lie; Have mercy now, most merciful, Most holy Trinity. 2 When heaven and earth were yet unmade, When time was yet unknown, Thou in thy bliss and majesty Didst live and love alone. 3 Thou wert not born; there was no fount From which thy Being flowed; There is no end which Thou canst reach; But thou art simply God. 4 How wonderful creation is, The work which thou didst bless, And O, what then must thou be like, Eternal loveliness! 5 Most ancient of all mysteries, Still at thy throne we lie; Have mercy now, most merciful, Most holy Trinity.

The Fish in Wave, the Bird on Wing

Author: Charles Coffin; John Chandler Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The fish in wave, the bird on wing, God bade the waters bear; Each for our mortal body’s food His gracious hands prepare. 2. But other food, of richer cost, The immortal spirit needs; By faith it lives on every word That from His mouth proceeds. 3. Faith springing from the blood of Christ, Has flowed o’er every land; And sinners through the vanquished world Bow down to its command. 4. Its light the joy of Heav’n reveals To hearts made pure within; And bids them seek by worthy deeds Eternal crowns to win. 5. By faith the saints of old were strong The lion’s wrath to tame; By faith they spurned the tyrant’s threats, And scorned the raging flame. 6. Lord, grant that we the path may tread Whereon its light doth shine; And gather, as we onward go, The fruits of love divine. 7. O praise the Father; praise the Son, On whose most precious blood Rests all our faith; and praise to Him Who with Them both is God. Used With Tune: ST.
