Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide
Author: Marcus M. Wells Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 685 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, faithful Guide,
Ever near the Christian’s side:
Gently lead us by the hand,
Pilgrims in a desert land.
Weary souls fore’er rejoice
While they hear that sweetest voice,
Whisp'ring softly, “Wand'rer, come,
Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.”
2 Ever present, truest Friend,
Ever near Thine aid to lend,
Leave us not to doubt and fear,
Groping on in darkness here;
When the storms are raging sore,
Hearts grow faint, and hopes give o’er,
Whisper softly, “Wand'rer, come,
Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.”
3 When our days of toil shall cease,
Waiting still for sweet release,
Nothing left but heav'n and prayer,
Trusting that our names are there,
Wading deep the dismal flood,
Pleading naught but Jesus’ blood,
Whisper softly, “Wand'rer, come,
Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” Topics: Pentecost - Holy Spirit Used With Tune: WELLS

And oh, could I know it was given to you! [Chorus]

I Love Thy Zion, Lord
Author: Timothy Dwight Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Zion, Lord,
The house of Thine abode;
The church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.

Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall;
For her my prayers ascend:
To her my cares and toil be giv'n,
Till toil and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heav'nly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.

Our Saviour and our King,
Thy hand from every snare and foe,
Shall great deliverance bring.

To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven. Topics: Church Used With Tune: ST. THOMAS

I Love to Tell the Story
Author: Kate Hankey Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1,226 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I love to tell the story
Of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and His glory,
Of Jesus and His love.
I love to tell the story,
Because I know 'tis true:
It satisfies my longings
As nothing else can do.
2 I love to tell the story;
'Tis pleasant to repeat,
What seems, each time I tell it,
More wonderfully sweet.
I love to tell the story,
For some have never heard
The message of salvation
From God's own holy Word.
3 I love to tell the story;
For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it, like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
'Twill be -- the old, old story
That I have loved so long! Used With Tune: FISCHER

With its shadows o'er me. [Chorus]

Jesus, Lover of My Soul
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3,242 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul,
Let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll,
While the tempest still is high!
Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,
Till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide;
Oh, receive my soul at last!
2 Other refuge have I none;
Hangs my helpless soul on Thee:
Leave, ah, leave me not alone,
Still support and comfort me!
All my trust on Thee is stayed,
All my help from Thee I bring:
Cover my defenseless head
With the shadow of Thy wing.
3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want;
More than all in Thee I find:
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy Name:
I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am;
Thou art full of truth and grace.
4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found,
Grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound;
Make, and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the Fountain art,
Freely let me take of Thee:
Spring Thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity. Topics: Atonement-Justification; Care and Guidance Used With Tune: MARTYN

To our Fatherland!

If the foe be near,

Let not faith and hope forsake us;

To our home we go!

From a long-felt grief;
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more!

Till our rest be won;
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our Fatherland! Topics: Care and Guidance Used With Tune: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM

My Faith Looks up to Thee
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 MY faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,--
A living fire.
3 When life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Oh, bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul! Topics: Faith Used With Tune: OLIVET

My Hope is Built on Nothing Less
Author: Edward Mote Appears in 1,097 hymnals Refrain First Line: On Christ the solid rock I stand Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less

On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the vail. [Refrain]
3 His oath, His covenant, His blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]

Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne! [Refrain] Topics: Atonement-Justification Used With Tune: THE SOLID ROCK
