Jesus, Thou Joy Of Loving Hearts
Author: Ray Palmer; Bernard of Clairvaux Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 565 hymnals First Line: Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts! Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou joy of loving hearts!
Thou Fount of life, Thou Light of men!
From the best bliss that earth imparts,
We turn unfilled to Thee again.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
Thou savest those that on Thee call;
To them that seek Thee, thou art good,
To them that find Thee, all in all.
3 Our restless spirits yearn for Thee,
Where'er our changeful lot is cast;
Glad that Thy gracious smile we see,
Blest, that our faith can hold Thee fast.
4 O Jesus, ever with us stay!
Make all our moments calm and bright;
Chase the dark night of sin away,
Shed o'er the world Thy holy light.
Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Used With Tune: JOY
Jesus, Thou Joy Of Loving Hearts
Blest is the man, forever blest
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man, forever blest,
Whose guilt is pardoned by his God,
Whose sins with sorrow are confessed,
And covered with his Savior's blood.
2 Blest is the man to whom the Lord
Imputes not his iniquities,
He pleads no merit of reward
And not on works, but grace relies.
3 From guile his heart and lips are free,
His humble joy, his holy fear,
With deep repentance well agree
And join to prove his faith sincere.
4 How glorious is that righteousness
That hides and cancels all his sins!
While a bright evidence of grace
Through his whole life appears and shines. Topics: The Catechism Justification; First Sunday after Easter; Twenty Second Sunday after Trinity Used With Tune: EVENING PRAYER
Blest is the man, forever blest
Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear
Author: John Keble Appears in 1,453 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear,
It is not night if Thou be near;
O may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes.
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought, how sweet to rest
Forever on my Savior's breast.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live!
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die!
4 If some poor wand'ring child of Thine
Have spurned to-day the voice divine,
Now, Lord, the gracious work begin;
Let him no more lie down in sin.
5 Watch by the sick, enrich the poor
With blessings from Thy bounteous store;
Be every mourner's sleep to-night,
Like infant's slumbers, pure and light!
6 Come near, and bless us when we wake,
Ere through the world our way we take,
And lead us by Thy hand of love,
Until we reach our home above. Topics: The Catechism Evening Used With Tune: EVENING PRAYER
Sun of my soul, Thou Savior dear
Lord, open Thou my heart to hear
Author: Johannes Olearius; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, open Thou my heart to hear,
And by Thy Word to me draw near;
Let me that Word still pure retain,
Let me Thy child and heir remain.
2 Thy Word can move the inmost heart,
And health to soul and sense impart:
To this my soul its comfort owes,
This peace and blessedness bestows.
3 Now to the Triune God alone,
Three persons on one blissful throne,
Unceasing praise and glory be
In time and through eternity. Topics: The Church Year Opening of Service Used With Tune: EVENING PRAYER
Lord, open Thou my heart to hear
