My soul before thee prostrate lies
Author: John Wesley; Christian R. Richter Hymnal: The Methodist Hymnal #273 (1905) Languages: English Tune Title: ELVEN
My soul before thee prostrate lies
My Soul Before Thee Prostrate Lies
Author: Christian F. Richter, 1676-1711; John Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4348 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. My soul before Thee prostrate lies;
To Thee, her source, my spirit flies;
My wants I mourn, my chains I see;
O let Thy presence set me free.
2. Jesus, vouchsafe my heart and will
With Thy meek lowliness to fill;
No more her power let nature boast,
But in Thy will may mine be lost.
3. Already springing hope I feel,
God will destroy the power of hell,
And, from a land of wars and pain,
Lead me where peace and safety reign.
4. One only care my soul shall know,
Father, all Thy commands to do;
And feel, what endless years shall prove,
That Thou, my Lord, my God, art love. Languages: English Tune Title: ELVEN
My Soul Before Thee Prostrate Lies
Dead Be My Heart To All Below
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10916 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Dead be my heart to all below,
To mortal joys and mortal cares;
To sensual bliss that charms us so,
Be dark, my eyes, and deaf my ears.
2 Here I renounce my carnal taste
Of the fair fruit that sinners prize:
Their paradise shall never waste
One thought of mine, but to despise.
3 All earthly joys are overweighed
With mountains of vexatious care;
And where’s the sweet that is not laid
A bait to some destructive snare?
4 Be gone for ever, mortal things;
Thou mighty mole-hill, earth, farewell!
Angels aspire on lofty wings,
And leave the globe for ants to dwell.
5 Come, Heav’n, and fill my vast desires,
My soul pursues the sovereign good;
She was all made of heav’nly fires,
Nor can she live on meaner food. Languages: English Tune Title: ELVEN
Dead Be My Heart To All Below
With broken heart and contrite sigh
Author: C. Elven Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #87 (1894) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh,
A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry:
Thy pardoning grace is rich and free:
O God, be merciful to me.
2 I smite upon my troubled breast,
With deep and conscience guilt oppressed;
Christ and His cross my only plea:
O God, be merciful to me.
3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes,
Nor dare uplift them to the skies;
But Thou dost all my anguish see:
O God, be merciful to me.
4 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done,
Can for a single sin atone;
To Calvary alone I flee:
O God, be merciful to me.
5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell,
With all the ransomed throng I dwell,
My raptured song shall ever be,
God has been merciful to me.
Amen.
