I Love the Lord, the Fount of Life and Grace

Author: William Kuipers Meter: 10.11.11.10 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, the fount of life and grace; he hears my voice, my cry and supplication, inclines his ear, gives strength and consolation; in life, in death, my heart will seek his face. 2 The cords of death held me in deep despair; the pangs of hell, like waves by tempest driven, rolled o'er my soul; by grief and sorrow driven, I turned in my distress to God in prayer. 3 I cried, "Deliver thou my soul, O Lord!" Jehovah heard; I pledge him my devotion. The Lord is just, his grace, wide as the ocean; in boundless mercy he fulfills his word. 4 The Lord preserves the meek most tenderly; brought nigh to death, in him I found salvation. Come, thou my soul, relieved from agitation, turn to thy rest; the Lord has favored thee. 5 Thou, O Jehovah, in thy sovereign grace, hast saved my soul from death and woe appalling, dried all my tears, secured my feet from falling. Lo, I shall live and walk before thy face. 6 I have believed, and therefore did I speak when I was made to suffer tribulation; I said in haste and bitter desperation: "All men are false, 'tis nought but lies they speak." 7 What shall I render to Jehovah now for all the riches of his consolation? With joy I'll take the cup of his salvation, and call upon his name with thankful vow. 8 Before his saints I'll pay my vows to God; e'en in death's vale he keepeth me from evil; how dear to God the dying of his people! Praise him, ye saints, and sound his name abroad. 9 I am, O Lord, thy servant, bound yet free, thy handmaid's son, whose shackles thou hast broken; redeemed by grace, I'll render as a token of gratitude my constant praise to thee. 10 Jerusalem! Within thy courts I'll praise Jehovah's name, and with a spirit lowly pay all my vows. O Zion, fair and holy, come join with me and bless him all thy days!

I Love the Lord

Author: Edward A. Collier Meter: 10.11.10.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: I love the Lord, because He heareth me Lyrics: 1. I love the Lord, because he heareth me Oft as my suppliant voice to Him ascendeth; And since to me a list'ning ear He bendeth; To Him my whole life long my prayer shall be. 2. The cords of death encompassed me around; Pangs of despair held me in bondage dreary; Of trouble and of grief my life was weary, Till on His Name I called and comfort found. 3. My soul's salvation of the Lord I craved, The gracious, righteous Lord, all pity showing; The simple He preserveth, grace bestowing; And me, brought low, He in His mercy saved. 4. Return, my soul, to thy sweet rest again: Before the Lord, so kindly, safely keeping From death and falls and tears of bitter weeping, I now will walk in lands of living men. 5. What shall I render to the Lord today For all His benefits upon me falling? Salvation's cup I'll take, and on Him calling, I, where His people meet, my vows will pay. 6. Yea, I the sacrifice of thanks will bring, And, in the midst of thee, O Zion holy, Before assembled saints, wtih spirit lowly, Will pay my voiws. Praise ye the Lord our King!
