Pàgina 32 - He came sweet influence to impart, A gracious willing guest, While he can find one humble heart Wherein to rest. 4 And his that gentle voice we hear, Soft as the breath of even, That checks each fault, that calms each fear, And speaks of heaven. 5 And every virtue we possess, And every victory won, And every thought of holiness, Are his alone.
Pàgina 43 - On thee, at the creation, The light first had its birth ; On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depths of earth ; On thee our Lord, victorious, The Spirit sent from heaven ; And thus on thee, most glorious, A triple light was given.
Pàgina 17 - THINE arm, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save ; It triumphed o'er disease and death, O'er darkness and the grave. To Thee they went, the blind, the dumb, The palsied and the lame, The leper with his tainted life, The sick with fevered frame.
Pàgina 39 - 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.
Pàgina 31 - The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we ought to ask; Room to deny ourselves; a road To bring us daily nearer God.
Pàgina 24 - Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee, Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power.
Pàgina 41 - Weak is the effort of my heart, And cold my warmest thought; But when I see Thee as Thou art, I'll praise Thee as I ought.
Pàgina 56 - Oh, then what raptured greetings On Canaan's happy shore ! What knitting severed friendships up, Where partings are no more ! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle That brimmed with tears of late ; Orphans no longer fatherless, Nor widows desolate.
Pàgina 6 - A thousand ages in thy sight are like an evening gone, short as the watch that ends the night before the rising sun.
Pàgina 30 - WHEN God of old came down from heaven, In power and wrath He came ; Before His feet the clouds were riven, Half darkness and half flame : 2 But when He came the second time, He came in power and love ; Softer than gale at morning prime Hovered His holy Dove.
