Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 851 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
unuttered or expressed,
the motion of a hidden fire
that trembles in the breast.
2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
the falling of a tear,
the upward glancing of an eye,
when none but God is near.
3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
that infant lips can try,
prayer the sublimest strains that reach
the Majesty on high.
4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice,
returning from his way,
while angels in their songs rejoice
and cry, "Behold, he prays!"
5 Prayer is the Christians' vital breath,
the Christians' native air,
his watchword at the gates of death;
he enters heaven with prayer.
6 The saints in prayer appear as one
in word, and deed, and mind,
while with the Father and the Son
sweet fellowship they find.
7 No prayer is made by us alone,
the Holy Spirit pleads,
and Jesus, on the eternal throne,
for sinners intercedes.
8 O Christ, by whom we come to God,
the life, the truth, the way!
The path of prayer you also trod;
Lord, teach us how to pray. Topics: Prayer; Christ--Intercessor; Humility; Prayer; Service music--Responses Scripture: Psalm 6:9 Used With Tune: DUNFERMLINE

The One Is Blest
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals First Line: The one is blest who, fearing God Lyrics: 1 The one is blest who, fearing God
Walks not where sinners meet,
Who does not stand with wicked ones,
Who shuns the scorners’ seat.
2 How blest is one who in God’s law
Finds goodness and delight,
And meditates upon that law
With gladness day and night.
3 That one is nourished like a tree
Set by the river’s side;
Its leaf is green, its fruit is sure,
The works of such abide.
4 The wicked like the driven chaff,
Are swept from off the land;
They shall not gather with the just,
Nor at the judgment stand.
5 The Lord will guard the righteous well,
Their way to God is known;
The way of sinners, far from God,
Shall surely be o’erthrown.

Help us to help each other, Lord
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 73 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Help us to help each other, Lord,
each other's cross to share;
let each our friendly aid afford
and feel each other's care.
2 Up into thee, our living Head,
let us in all things grow,
and by thy sacrifice be led
the fruits of love to show.
3 Drawn by the magnet of thy love
let all our hearts agree,
and ever to each other move,
and ever nearer thee.
4 This is the bond of perfectness,
thy spotless charity.
Oh let us still, we pray, possess
the mind that was in thee. Topics: Compassion; Help; Jesus Christ Love of; Jesus Christ Head of Church; Love; The Church; Unity Scripture: Numbers 21:9 Used With Tune: DUNFERMLINE

Ye, Who the Name of Jesus Bear
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye, who the name of Jesus bear,
his sacred steps pursue;
and let that mind which was in him
be also found in you.
2 His greatness he for us abased,
for us his glory veiled;
in human likeness dwelt on earth,
his majesty concealed;
3 nor only as a man appears,
but stoops a servant low;
submits to death, nay, bears the cross,
in all its shame and woe.
4 Hence God this gen'rous love to us
with honors just hath crowned,
and raised the name of Jesus far
above all names renowned:
5 that at this name, with sacred awe,
each humble knee should bow,
of hosts immortal in the skies,
and nations spread below;
6 that all the prostrate powers of hell
mqy tremble at his 2ord,
qnd every tribe and every tongue,
donfess that he is Lord.
