Pàgina 6 - I'm constrained to be ! Let that grace', Lord, like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee. Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it : Prone to leave the God I love : Here's my heart, oh ! take and seal it, Seal it from Thy courts above.
Pàgina 181 - Born Thy people to deliver, Born a child and yet a King, Born to reign in us for ever, Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.
Pàgina 140 - 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.
Pàgina 105 - BEFORE Jehovah's awful throne, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy ; Know that the Lord is God alone ; He can create, and he destroy.
Pàgina 281 - May the Grace of Christ our Saviour, And the Father's boundless Love, With the Holy Spirit's Favour, Rest upon us from above. Thus may we abide in union, With each other and the LORD ; And possess, in sweet communion, Joys which earth cannot afford.
Pàgina 204 - Thou shalt see my glory soon, " When the work of grace is done; " Partner of my throne shalt be, " Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me ?" 6 Lord, it is my chief complaint, That my love is weak and faint; Yet I love thee and adore, Oh for grace to love thee more ! CXIX.
Pàgina 192 - Make us of one heart and mind, Courteous, pitiful, and kind, Lowly, meek, in thought and word, Altogether like our Lord.
Pàgina 268 - I want that grace that springs from thee, That quickens all things where it flows, And makes a wretched thorn like me Bloom as the myrtle or the rose. Dear fountain of delight unknown ! No longer sink below the brim ; But overflow, and pour me down A living and life-giving stream ! For sure, of all the plants that share The notice of thy Father's eye, None proves less grateful to his care, Or yields him meaner fruit than I.
Pàgina 46 - Finish then thy new creation, Pure and spotless let us be; Let us see thy great salvation, Perfectly restored in thee: Changed from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before thee. Lost In wonder, love, and praise.
Pàgina 147 - No more content afford ; Far from my heart be joys like these, Now I have seen the Lord. 3 As by the light of opening day The stars are all concealed ; So earthly pleasures fade away, When Jesus is revealed.
