O for a closer walk with God

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: Common Praise #532 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Genesis 6:9 Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God, a calm and heavenly frame; a light to shine upon the road that leads me to the Lamb! 2 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed, how sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 3 Return, O holy Dove, return, sweet messenger of rest: I hate the sins that made thee mourn and drove thee from my breast. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.

Immortal Love for ever full

Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: Common Praise #475 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Genesis 6:9 Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love for ever full, for ever flowing free, for ever shared, for ever whole, a never-ebbing sea. 2 Our outward lips confess the name all other names above; love only knoweth whence it came and comprehendeth love. 3 We may not climb the heavenly steeps to bring the Lord Christ down; in vain we search the lowest deeps, for him no depths can drown: 4 But warm, sweet, tender, even yet a present help is he; and faith has still its Olivet, and love its Galilee. *5 The healing of his seamless dress is by our beds of pain; we touch him in life's throng and press, and we are whole again. *6 Through him the first fond prayers are said our lips of childhood frame; the last low whispers of our dead are burdened with his name. 7 Alone, O Love ineffable, thy saving name is given; to turn aside from thee is hell, to walk with thee is heaven.

He Comes to Us As One Unknown
