Alas, dear Lord, what law then hast Thou broken

Alas! my God! my sins are great

Alas! my Lord and God

Alas! my Saviour, who could dare

Alas! that I have served so long

Alas! that I so late have known Thee

Alas! when I remember all

All are alike before His face

All are alike before the Highest

All at last is ended

All Beauty is Thine own

All delight, all consolation

All delight, all consolation

All evil spirits drive away

All eyes do wait on Thee, O Lord

All glory be to God on High

All growth of the forest

All hallow'd be Thy name, O Lord!

All has its day, the proverb saith

All heavens are Thine, yet Thou didst come

All heavens are Thine, yet Thou dost come

All love is Thine, O Spirit!

All lovely hues have faded

All lovely hues of life

All my heart this night rejoices

All my heart this night rejoices

All my hope is grounded surely

All my life I still have found

All my life I still have found

All my spirit thirsts to see

All our knowledge, sense, and sight

All our knowledge, sense, and sight

All passeth away, but God liveth aye

All perfect wisdom lies in Thee

All things that move

All wealth, all glories, here below

All wealth, all glories, here below

All ye Gentile lands awake!

All ye who name Christ's holy name

All ye who name Christ's holy Name

Am I a stranger here, on earth alone

Am I on earth alone and friendless stranger?

Amen, dear God! now send us faith

Amen, dear God! now send us faith

Amen! I say, not fearing

Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our prayer!

Amen! that is, so let it be!

Amid the holy angels placed

And all who else have stray'd from Thee

And all who else have stray'd from Thee

And as my life is onward gliding

And as the needle while we rove

And as we draw near

And at last, when all fulfilled

And at last when we must die

And at last when we must die

And bid Thy Word, the fairest Star

And bid Thy Word within us

And Christ, be Thou our Friend and Guide

And Christ, be Thou our Friend and Guide

And, dearest Jesus, blest be Thou

"And even as I have done and said

And ever do I take delight

And ever weeping as I spoke

And first, O Father, praise to Thee

And fled I hence, In my despair

And fled I in my fear

And for the creatures He hath made

And for the creatures He hath made

And from His fulness grant each soul

And from those I love, I pray

And from those I love, I pray

And from Thy sorrows will I learn

And give us peace; peace in the church and school

And God who earth and heaven hath made

And grant, Lord, when the year is over

And grant me, Lord, to do

And grant me, Lord, to do

And grant that Hope may never fail

And He will lead the white-robed throng

And help me to become a child

And henceforth will I day by day

And herewith will I end the song

And His Spirit, blessed Guide

And humming, hovering to and fro

And I have eaten of His flesh

And I have eaten of His flesh

And I have promised fear and love

And I have vowed to fear and love Thee

And I should say Stay there, my son

And I will nail me to Thy cross

And I will study to adorn

And if a longer life

And if a longer life

And if it must be so

And if the pure and sinless One

And if this night my last should prove

And if this work be Thine, oh bless

And keep me of Thy kindness

And last,--"My Father, to Thine hands

And let me be with all

And let me be with all

And let me do to others

And let me now so order all

And let me now so order all

And let me promise nought

And let me promise nought

And let our nation learn to know

And let the fire within me move

And let Thy conquering banner wave

And let Thy cross upbear me

And let Thy grace, O Lord, control

And let Thy sorrows cheer

And let Thy wisdom be my guide

And let Thy Word have speedy course

And many a pious heart shall learn

And may this year to me be holy

And must thou suffer here and there

And my soul complaineth not

And my soul complaineth not

And my soul despaireth not

And my soul despaireth not

And my soul doth cease from cares

And my soul is free from care

And my soul repineth not

And my soul repineth not

And never let me waver more

And never let my purpose falter

And of Thy grace on me bestow

And of Thy mercy now bestow

And o'er His little flock He yearns

And perfect health, untouched by pain

And rich the world in things invisible

And set me, Lord, in Paradise

And since Thy Spirit sheds abroad

And so I hence am going

And so I stretch mine arms to Thee

And so to earth again we trust

And so to earth again we trust

And so to Thee still cleaving

And so to Thy good pleasure

And so with joy I drink my cup

And then within the heart abide

And there shall I at last repay

And therefore do my thanks o'erflow

And therefore do my thinks o'erflow

And therefore now I close my eyes

And these dark hours of anxious pain

And those found faithful then shall see

And Thou dost all our sins forgive

And Thou in Christ hast rescued me

And Thou Thy Spirit dost bestow

And though it linger till the night

And though it tarry till the night

And though through desert wilds I fare

And thus I live in God at peace

And thus I live in God at peace

And thus my hope is in the Lord

And thus we come, O God, to-day

And thus we come, O God, to-day

And to you a last good night

And we believe In Jesus Christ

And we believe in Jesus Christ

And we confess the Holy Ghost

And we confess the Holy Ghost

And were the world with devils fill'd

And were the world with devils filled

And were the world with devils filled

And what I say, let each this morn

And what Thy Spirit thus hath taught me

And when, dear Lord, before Thy throne in heaven

And when earth cannot comfort more

And when I must die

"And when I rise to heaven above

And when my lips grow white and chill

And when our tears for sin o'erflow

And when our tears for sin o'erflow

And when the Day is come

And when the Day is come

And when the last great Day is come

And when the last great Day is come

And when the spirit flies away

And when the wearied hands give way

And when the wearied hands grow weak

And when Thou bidd'st me leave this world of strife and pain

And when Thou bidd'st me leave this world of strife and pain

And when Thou dost come again

And when within that lovely Paradise

And when within that lovely Paradise

And whene'er a yearning strong

And whether thy chill deeps become our grave

And who the cup prepared Him

And why Thy Spirit, Lord, began

And words of Thine can never fail

And ye come on ready wing

And ye come on ready wing

And yet, dear Lord, this shrinking heart

And yet in death or pain or loss

Anoint us with Thy blessed love

Another's course may not be thine

Appear then, my Defender

Are we not by gifts surrounded

Arise, and let us day and night

Arise, and let us night and day

Arise and make an end of all

Arise, the kingdom is at hand

Arise, the kingdom is at hand

Art thou faithful? Stand apart

Art thou faithful? then oppose

Art thou faithful? Wake and watch

As a bird at dawning singeth

As a bird in meadows fair

As a father ne'er withdraws

As a father ne'er withdraws

As a father not too soon

As a father not too soon

"As I live," He surely saith

As I watch Thee far ascending

As Mary once devoutly sought

As silver that through fire hath passed

As the eagle o'er her nest

As the eagle o'er her nest

As the harts at noonday pant

As the hunted hart hath panted

As Thou, Lord, hast commanded me

As Thy beloved soothe the sick and weeping

As Thy beloved, soothe the sick and weeping

As Thy coming was in peace

As toward her sun the sunflower turns

As toward her sun the sunflower turns

As true as God's own word is true

At home in that calm, happy place

At home is Life that never dies

At last thou goest forth

At Zarephath a smelter's wife

Awake! He comes to judgment, wake!

Awake, my heart's delight, awake

Awake, O man, and from thee shake

Awake! thou careless world, awake!

Awake, thou careless world, awake!

Awake, Thou Spirit, who of old

Baptized into Thy name most holy

Be it as He ordains whose name is Love!

Be it Thine to stir our will

Be my help when danger's nigh

Be not o'er-mastered by thy pain

Be of good cheer; your cause belongs

Be our voyage, brethren, such

Be still and trust!

Be still, my throbbing heart, be still

Be this a time of grace and pardon

Be thou content; be still before

Be Thou our bliss, our light

Be Thou our joy, our brightness

Before the Holy One I fall

Before the Holy One I fall

Before Thy power the hills and valleys shake

Begone, ye pleasures false and vain

Begone, ye pleasures false and vain

Behold, how He hath everywhere

Behold, how He hath everywhere

Behold, how through the boundless sky

Behold, how through the boundless sky

Behold the waters' ceaseless flow

Behold the waters' ceaseless flow

Behold, through all the eternal ages, still

Behold thy Lord

Behold thy Lord

Bend the stubborn will to Thine

Bend the stubborn will to Thine

Bid Him bless what thou art doing

Bid Him bless what thou art doing

Bid them Thy easy yoke to know

Bitter anguish have I borne

Bitter anguish have I borne

Bless all my works and ways, my light increase

Bless my trials thus to sever

Bless my trials thus to sever

Bless to-day what I am doing

Bless to-day whate'er I do

Blessed Jesus, at Thy word

Blessed Jesus, at Thy word

Blessed Jesus, here we stand

Blessed Jesus, here we stand

Blessed Saviour, let me find Thee!

Blessed Sun of Grace! O'er all

Blessed Sun! Oh let Thy rays

Blest be the day and blest the hour

Blest such a house, it prospers well

Blest, where the busy hands fulfil

Blest, where their prayers shall daily rise

Bliss from Thee my soul hath won

Body, be thou of good cheer

Bound unto the flying hours

Break through my bonds whate'er it cost

Brethren, go forth beside all ways

Brightest Star of eastern skies!

Brightest Star of eastern skies

Brightness of His Face!

Brightness of the eternal city!

Brightness of the eternal city!

Bruise for me the serpent's head

But ah! my coward spirit droops

But ah! my coward spirit droops

But curb my heart, forgive my guilt

But from Thee how can I hide me

But hast thou some darling plan

But hast thou some darling plan

But heaven and earth, O Lord, are Thine

But help me; let Thy heavenly showers

But His goodners still shall flourish

But human wisdom searches, Lord, in vain

But I will tell, while I am living

But if I not yet

But if it please that love most kind

But if Thou look on me in love

But if Thou look on me in love

But in heaven there stands a Home

But Jesus Christ, God's only Son

But let me feel Thou guidest me

But must I walk the vale of death

But not yet the gates of gold

But now I need not fear for thee

But now no human wit or might

But of Thy goodness will I sing

But only may He of His grace

But put to shame Thy foes, who breathe defiance

But sin hath so within me wrought

But sin hath so within me wrought

But since my strength, alas, will ne'er prevail

But since my strength alone will ne'er suffice me

But still Thy love befriends us

But suddenly that sleep was broke

But, the day-spring from on high

But the glory of the Lord

But the Lord doth nought amiss

But the Lord doth nought amiss

But Thou must also deign to be my own

But Thou, my God, no rest dost know

But Thou, my Joy and Gladness

But Thou, my joy and gladness

But Thou so oft hast blessings shed

But through many a trial

But what I cannot, Thou true Good

But what is joy or living

But when I hear it sweetly sing

But when I was worn with care

But when that morning shall appear

But when Thou mak'st Thy presence felt

But where God rules it must be so

But while watching, also see

But worthless is my sacrifice, I own it

But ye, O faithful souls, shall see

Each one finds and each one takes

Earth is the home of tears and woe

Earth knows Thee not, but evermore

Earth may all her gifts deny

Earthly treasure, mirth and pleasure

Earthly treasure, mirth and pleasure

Earthly were our thoughts and low

Enlighten our dark souls, till they

Enough, Lord, that my foe too well

Enough, Lord, that my foe too well

Enslaved to vanity, and weak

Enter, King of Glory, in!

Ere earth's foundations yet were laid

Ere yet the dawn hath fill'd the skies

Eternal Being! Perfect Purity!

Eternal God! Almighty Friend

Eternal God! Almighty Friend

Even so is all my heart's desire

Even so this body made of dust

Firm, yes firmly, ever cleaving

Fling wide the portals of your heart

Follow me, in me ye live

For as a shadow passes

For as a tender father

For Christ, my Lord and Brother

For conscience lay oppressed and bound

For daily do I see

For Elijah's voice is crying

For e'en the Son Thou most dost love

For ever will I love Him

For ever will I love Him

For God ere long will summon all

For God loves not only those

For He can plead for me with sighings

For he doth please the Father well

For he who seeks to save his life

For He whose mighty sway

For here, where virtue oft is sad

For I fain would gaze on Thee

For of thy gifts, ah! what a wealth

For Salem then

For strange concerns he careth nought

For such His will who made us

For that love hath hidden springs

For the Lord reigneth

For the noblest gift Thou art

For the seed is sown again to bloom

For there are currents undiscerned

For thinking on that sound

For this all things we dare,--

For this the works that Thou hast made

For Thou art calling all the toil-oppress'd

For Thou didst suffer for my soul

For Thou didst suffer for my soul

For Thou dost love to meet us as a Friend

For Thou from me hast warded

For Thou in mercy unto all

For Thou, my God, art Sun and Shield

For thus, O Good Supreme

For Thy brightness, O my Star

For Thy Son hath suffer'd for me

For vainly doth our human wisdom ponder--

For velvets soft and silken stuff

For velvets soft and silken stuff

For we have none on whom for help to call

For what am I? At His command

For what can all my toil avail?

For what hath life been giving

For what hath life been giving

For when the night hath lasted long

For when the'world is passing

For who is gracious, Lord, as Thou?

Forgive our sins, that they no more

Forth from Thy rich and bounteous store

Fount of all our joy and peace!

Fount of all our joy and peace

Fount of Good, within me dwell

Fount of joy, my Lord Divine

Frail and fleeting are our powers

Frail and fleeting are our powers

Friend of our perfect choice

From God shall nought divide me

From God shall nought divide me

From God's glances shrink thou never

From God's glances shrink thou never

From head to foot was there no spot in me

From heaven above to earth I come

From Heaven above to earth I come

From henceforth there is nought of mine

From Him can nought my soul divide

From Him can nought my soul divide

From the stars now learn thy duty

From Thee alone all gladness flows

From Thee alone all gladness flows

From Thy ascension let such grace

From Thy ascension let such grace

From Thy heav'nly home

Full many a way, full many a path

Full of grace to charm the heart

Full of wonder, full of art

Fulness of grace is in Thy Word

Guided by His gentle staff

Hark! a voice from yonder manger

Hark! a voice saith, All are mortal

Hark, how the air is sweet

Hark, the Church proclaims her honour

Hark! the Church proclaims here honour

Hark, the confessors of the faith

Hast thou won the pearl of price

Hasten as a Bride to meet Him

Hasten as a bride to meet Him

Hath life for Him no gladness

Hath my heart been wavering long

Hath my heart been wavering long

Have I e'er from Thee departed

Have I e'er from Thee departed

Have I then striven as sure I ought

Have mercy, Lord of love, for long

Have mercy, Lord of love, for long

He brings those blessings, long ago

He brings those blessings, long ago

He comes to judge the earth, and ye

He comes to judge the nations

He feeds me, comforts and defends

He feeds me, comforts and defends

He gives me pledges holy

He gives me pledges holy

He governs all things here below

He has what we are wanting

He hath not skill to utter lies

He hears their singing evermore

He His Church hath firmly founded

He His Church hath firmly founded

He is full of power and might

He is in God, and God in him

He is the hcathens' saving Light

He is the Hope, the Saving Light

He knows the time for joy, and truly

He knows when joyful hours are best

He lives, His presence hath not ceased

He lives where none can mourn and weep

He lives where none can mourn and weep

He saith,--"Lo! it is finish'd now!"

He shows to man His treasure

He spake to His beloved Son

He speaks; no more He shrinketh

He suffer'd pain and grief below

He suffer'd pain and grief below

He thought upon the thief, and said,--

He wears the crown of life on high

He whispers in my breast

He who bore all pain and loss

He who bore all pain and loss

He who doth teach the little birds

He who gave for us His life

He who gave for us His life

He who goeth to church full fain

He who hitherto hath fed me

He who hitherto hath fed me

He who slumber'd in the grave

He who slumber'd in the grave

He who thus endureth

He whom this world dares not face

He whose path no records tell

He whose path no records tell

He will change this body

He will not stay to pause and choose

He will quench it not, but haste to pour

Hear, O my God, low at Thy feet I bend me

Heart and heart together bound

Heart and heart together bound

Heavenward Death shall lead at last

Heavenward! doth His Spirit cry

Heavenward! doth His Spirit cry

Heavenward doth our journey tend

Heavenward doth our journey tend

Heavenward ever would I haste

Heavenward! Faith discerns the prize

Heavenward! Heavenward! Only this

Heavenward still I long to haste

Heavenward stretch, my soul, thy wings

Heavenward stretch, my soul, thy wings

Heavenward! This thall be my cry

Heavenward! To that blessed home

Help me as each morn shall break

Help me as the morn is breaking

Help me earthly toys to spurn

Help me, for I am weak; I fight

Help me to love the world no more

Help me to love the world no more

Help us, O Lord, behold we enter

Hence all care, all vanity

Hence all care, all vanity

Hence, all fears and sadness

Hence all thoughts of sadness

Hence, my heart, with such a thought

Hence Prince of darkness, hence my foe!

Hence, vain and evil thoughts, depart!

Hence, ye foes! God hears my prayer

Hence, ye foes! He comes in grace

Her budding boughs and fairest palms

Here a father trains his child

Here a prudent son has grown

Here as in a dungeon grief hath bound us

Here as in a prison we are bound

Here at my Saviour's side

Here behold me as I cast me

Here behold me, as I cast me

Here I bring my will, oh take it

Here I bring my will, oh take it

Here I can firmly rest

Here I live in sore distress

Here I live in sore distress

Here I must seek, there I shall find

Here I sink before Thee lowly

Here in Thy gracious hands I fall

Here is nought but care and mourning

Here is nought but care and mourning

Here, Lord, have I wrestled

Here my heart rests, and holds it fast

Here, O my God, I cast me at Thy feet

Here the Christians oft must bear

Here Thy praise is gladly chanted

Here will I rest, and hold it fast

Here with her brood the hen doth walk

Hide thee, in His chamber bide thee

Hide thee, in His chamber hide thee

High, oh high, o'er all things earthy

High, oh high, o'er all things earthy

Highest Majesty!

Him no death has power to kill

Him on yonder cross I love

His arms are open, thither flee!

His arms are open, thither flee!

His dearest work, his best delight

His grace alone endureth

His heart is aye the truest heart

His mind is aye the gentlest mind

His mother stood beside Him there

His no bear's or lion's heart

His sorrows and His cross I know

His sorrows and His cross I know

His soul is living now in God

His soul is living now in God

His Spirit in me dwells

His thought is aye the wisest thought

His trials and his griefs are past

His trials and his griefs are past

Hither come, ye heavy-hearted

Hither come, ye heavy-hearted

Hither come, ye poor and wretched!

Hither come, ye poor and wretched

Holy Ghost! my Comforter!

Holy Ghost! my Comforter!

Holy Spirit, once again

Holy Spirit, once again

Home to the chosen ones, who here

Hope, O ye broken hearts, at last!

Hope, O ye broken hearts, at last!

Hosanna! best-beloved and noble Guest!

Hosanna! Come, the time draws on apace

Hosanna! Let us in Thy footsteps tread

Hosanna! Let us sound it far and wide!

Hosanna! Lord, be Thou our help and friend

Hosanna! Prince of Peace and Lord of Might!

Hosanna to the Son of David! Raise

Hosanna! Welcome above all Thou art!

How blest to all Thy followers, Lord, the road

How bright Thy lowly manger beams!

How bright Thy lowly manger beams!

How brightly beams the Morning Star!

How calm and blest

How calm and blest

How could I ever leave Him

How many a child of promise bright

How many a storm hath lighten'd

How many a storm hath lighten'd

How many a time I've sadly said

How many a time I've sadly said

How many a time the night hath come

How many ties oppress and bind

How no contrite soul e'er sought Him

How oft my heart against my will

How often dost thou think

How richly He consoleth those

How shall I meet Thee? How my heart

How still the earth! how calm!

How the flock He gently leadeth

How their love ne'er fades away

How then should I go mourning on?

How then thould I go mourning on?

How to all the sick and tearful

How various and how fair

How when children came He bless'd them

Hunger nor thirst can pain us there

I

I am baptized into Thy name

I am not worthy, Lord, that Thou

I and my sins, that number more

I ask not, take away this weight of care

I ask not that my course be calm and still

I ask Thee not to finish soon the strife

I bring Thee here, my God, anew

I can rest in thoughts of Him

I can rest in thoughts of Him

I cannot rest, I may not sleep

I cannot rest, I may not sleep

I cannot stay the venomed power of sin

I cling unto Thy grace alone

I cling unto Thy grace alone

I commend to Thee my life

I could weep night and morning

I count the hours, the days, the years

I eat, or wake, or sleep

I felt, Lord, that Thou stoodest still

I flee away to Thy dear Cross

I flee away to Thy dear cross

I give myself to Thee, to Thee alone

I hate it, but its life is strong

I have been grafted in the Vine

I hear the waters rush

I joy that from Thy love divine

I joy that from Thy love divine

I kneel beside Thy couch

I knew it long ere now

I know in Whom I put my trust

I know my end must surely come

I know, my God, and I rejoice

"I know that he will shed My blood

I know that I am in Thy hands

I know the doom that must befall me

I know the evil I have done

I know Thy thoughts are ever

I lean upon His mighty arm

I leave Him not; Earth I can leave

I leave Him not;--for since He chose

I leave Him not; He leaves not me

I leave Him not; what wouldst thou, Sin?

I leave Him not, who came to save

I leave to Thee whate'er is mine

I leave to Thee whate'er is mine

I long for thee, my son, my own

I practice me in self-controul

I praise Thee, O my God and Father

I praise Thee, Saviour, whose compassion

I renounce thee willingly

I renounce thee willingly

I rest me here without a fear

I rest me here without a fear

I rest upon the ground

I say to all men, far and near

I see the threatening danger

I shall see Him with these eyes

I shrink with fear and sore alarm

I sit alone; with tears I bathe my cheeks

I sought Him In my hour of need

I sought Him in my hour of need

I thank Thee, Christ, Eternal Lord

I thank Thee, Christ, Eternal Lord

I thank Thee, then, true Sun of heaven

I think, Art Thou so good to us

I too stretch my hands with longing

I travel to a distant land

I wander'd long in willing blindness

I was a foe to God

I was a wild unfruitful vine

I who so oft in deep distress

I will meet distress and pain

I will meet distress and pain

I will not let Thee go, my God, my Life, my Lord!

I will not let Thee go; should I forsake my bliss?

I will not let Thee go; Thou Help in time of need!

I will return unto the Lord

I will shun no toil or wo

I will shun no toil or wo

I would I were at last at home

I'll think upon Thy mercy hour by hour

If dangers gather round

If dangers gather round

If death my portion be

If death my portion be

If earth for thee be only gloom

If God be on my side

If God were not upon our side

If happy sunshine be Thy gift

If He is ours

If He is ours

If He send within my door

If I am weak, Thy tender care

If I die, I do but cease

If I number many a year

If Jesus lives, can I be sad?

If Jesus lives, can I be sad?

If my God should health bestow

If obscure my place and low

If on earth He bids me linger

If on earth He bids me linger

If pain and woe must follow sin

If sorrow comes, He sent it

If sorrow comes, He sent it

If storms of fierce temptation rise

If storms of fierce temptation rise

If this be so, then World, from me

If thou but suffer God to guide thee

If thou love Him

If Thou, Sun of Love, arise

If Thou, True Life, wilt in me live

If thus in darkness ever left

In bonds and stripes, in falsest blame

In Death's strong grasp the Saviour lay

In due season come again

In faith I hide myself in Thee

In God, my faithful God

In God my faithful God

In God's name let us on our way!

In God's name let us on our way!

In heavy bonds I languished long

In Him is comfort, light and grace

In Him my Saviour I abide

In holy baptism long ago

In holy baptism long ago

In joy and sorrow ever

In joy and sorrow ever

In my weakness be Thou strong

In peace and joy I now depart

In peace and joy I now depart

In that hell is mickle woe

In that last hour, oh grant me

In that peace we reap in gladness

In that peace we reap in gladness

In the bonds of Death He lay

In the darksome night

In the midst of death the jaws

In the midst of hell would Sin

In the midst of life, behold

In the patience that Thou lendest

In the patience that Thou lendest

In Thee is gladness

In Thee is gladness

In Thee, Lord, have I put my trust

In these dark days that yet remain

In these dark days that yet remain

In Thine arm I rest me

In Thine arm I rest me

In this world of care and pain

In Thy heart and hands, my God

"In truth I tell you, who receives

In truth my sacrifice is nothing worth,

In what the world calls weakness lurks

In wrathful pride they rage and mock

Incline a gracious ear to me

Innumerous choirs before the shining throne

Innumerous choirs before the shining throne

Into temptation lead us not

Is my foolish mind

Is there an act our reason would applaud?

Is thy heart athirst to know

Is thy heart athirst to know

It is the Dayspring from on high

It lacketh now a few short hours

It seems as all were over now,--

It seems as all were over now,--

It stands not in the power of man

It was a wondrous war, I trow

It will not last for long

Make it, Head, Thy member now

Make it, Head, Thy member now

Make me Thine own and keep me Thine

Make me to sing once more of joy and gladness

Make ye straight what long was crooked

Maker of all! Who showest

Man may hate me causelessly

Man may hate me causelessly

Many a day of happiness

Many a gift did Christ impart

Many a heart no longer here

Many a heart no longer here

Many a time ere now I said

Many a time I've felt indeed

Many an hour of sorrow

May every plan and undertaking

May we live in holiness

May we live in holiness

Mere earthly pleasure cannot please

Mighty God, I now commend

Mine eyes now behold Thy works, that of old

Morning Star in darksome night

Most High and Holy Trinity!

Most High and Holy Trinity!

Most Hight and Holy Trinity!

Mourning I sat beside the way

Much have I sinn'd, and utterly I perish

Much have I sinned, I perish utterly

Must I not rejoice for this?

My all I risk to magnify Thy name

My burden every day is new

My cause is God's, and I am His

My cause is God's, and I am still

My cry, when rough the march and dark

My faith, alas! is weak

My faithful God, Thou failest never

My faithful God, upon Thy side

My God and Lord, I cast on Thee

My God and Shield, now let Thy power

My God, behold me lying

My God, how wondrously dost Thou

My God, how wondrously dost Thou

My God, in Thee all fulness lies

My God, in Thee all fulness lies

My god, lo, here before Thy face

My God, Thou here hast led me

My God, to Thee I now commend

My God, to Thee I now commend

My good works could avail me nought

My Guardian, deign to own me

My Guardian, own me Thine

My heart and conscience sorely wounded lie

My heart and soul faint, smitten by Thine arrow

My heart for gladness springs

My heart for very joy doth leap

My heart for very joy doth leap

My heart grows strong, all terrors fly

My heart hath cherish'd sin, and fear'd no morrow

My heart is fill'd with longing

My heart is filled with ruth

My heart is set to do Thy will

My heart is set to do Thy will

My heart sinks at the journey's length

My heart sinks at the journey's length

My heavy eyes are closing

My heavy eyes are closing

My help and my defence come, faithful God, from Thee

My help and my defence come, faithful God, from Thee

My inmost heart now raises

My Jesus, day by day

My Jesus, if the Seraphim

My Jesus, if the seraphim

My Jesus, stay Thou by me

My Jesus, stay Thou by me

My life is hid in Jesus

My Lord, Thou here hast led me

My loved ones, rest securely

My loved ones, rest securely

My loving Father, here dost Thou

My loving Father here doth take me

My pain grew more than I could bear

My prayers, my longings Thou dost hear

My Redeemer liveth

My Refuge where I hide me

My Saviour, I behold Thee

My Saviour, I will never

My Saviour, what Thou didst of old

My secret prayers and sighs Thou hearest plainly

My service cannot merit

My sin is very sore and great

My sin is very sore and great

My sins are more than I can bear

My sins are more than I can bear

My sins assail me sore

My sins assail me sore

My sins, dear Lord, disturb me sore

My soul doth melt within me

My soul is all o'erfraught

My soul, now praise thy Maker!

My soul, wouldst thou this one thing find?

My turn will soon be here

My woes are nearly over

Naked, helpless, was I born

Nay, all He sends me let me suffer rather

"Nay, and couldst thou find a mother

Nay, He kept not back His Son

Nay, I must flee to God Himself, from whom

Nay, I must flee to Him who can deliver

Nay, rather let me suffer all His will

Nay, that Thou wilt not do

Nay, Thee I seek;--I merit nought

Nay, too closely am I bound

No better trophy hath this day

No human laws can bind Thy Spirit, Lord

No joys that angels know

No more to fear or grief I bow

No more to fear or grief I bow

No questions dark his spirit vex

No son of man could conquer Death

None was ever left a prey

None was ever left a prey

Nor can I now, O God, forbear

Nor deem the form too lowly

Nor for ourselves we pray alone

Nor here alone hope pierces far

Nor in the heat of pain and strife

Nor less to Thee, O Holy Ghost

Nor let the body dull the soul

Nor shall I yonder stand alone

Nor sin shall make you fearful

Nor think amid the heat of trial

Nor vex your souls with care, nor grieve

Nor ye, O sinners, shrink aside

Not e'en the sharpest sorrows we can feel

Not in anger, mighty God

Not in anger smite us, Lord

Nothing fair on earth I see

Nothing fair on earth I see

Nought I ask for, nought I strive for

Nought I ask for, nought I strive for

Nought, nought, dear Lord, could move Thee

Nought, nought, dear Lord, had power to move

Now all the earth is bright and glad

Now all the woods are sleeping

Now all the woods are sleeping

Now art Thou here; we know Thee now

Now art Thou here; we know Thee now

Now as long as here I roam

Now as long as here I roam

Now at last I end the strife

Now at last I end this strife

Now darkness over all is spread

Now Death and Satan, hell and sin

Now earth has hid it from our eyes

Now earth has hid it from our eyes

Now every heart each noble deed

Now fain my joyous heart would sing

Now fearless I can look on Thee

Now fearless I can look on Thee

Now first to souls who thus awake

Now from His fulness grant each soul

Now God be praised, and God alone!

Now God be with us, for the night is closing

Now God be with us, for the night is closing

Now he beholds what we believe

Now He bids us tell abroad

Now He bids us tell abroad

Now hush your cries, and shed no tear

Now hush your cries, and shed no tear

Now I sink before Thee lowly

Now in His name most blest

Now lay we calmly in the grave

Now lay we calmly in the grave

Now let all the heavens adore Thee

Now let all the heavens adore Thee

Now let the mourner grieve no more

Now let us all with gladsome cheer

Now let us all with gladsome cheer

Now let us loudly

Now marred by sickness or by pain

Now may Thine image in us shine anew

Now, O my Lord, I follow Thee

Now our Paschal Lamb is He

Now rests her soul in Jesu's arms

Now seems to us o'er harsh and strict Thy school

Now send us from Thy heavenly throne

Now send us from Thy heavenly throne

Now take my heart and all that is in me

Now thank we all our God

Now thank we all our God

Now thank we all our God

Now that the sun doth shine no more

Now the light, that nature gladdens

Now the light, that nature gladdens

Now the pearly gates unfold

Now thought and labour ceases

Now thought and labour ceases

Now upon Thy heart it lies

Now upon Thy heart it lies

Now we must leave our father-land

Now weeping at the grave we stand

Omnipotence is on your side

On earth it is so dark and drear

On our sails all soft and sweetly

On, still onward, mounting nigher

On, still onward, mounting nigher

On Thee is all this world upstaid

On this day most blest of days

On Thy light I think at morn

On Thy light I think at morn

Once a pain that would not cease

Once blind with sin and self

Once he came in blessing

Once more from rest I rise again

Once more He saith,--"I thirst, I thirst!"

Once more the day-light shines abroad

Once more the daylight shines abroad

"Once," she mourns, "He promised plainly

Once the eyes that now are dim

One is the haven;--let there be

One member knoweth not another here

One thing is needful! Let me deem

One thing will I seek alone

One with the Father! Prince of might!

One with the Father! Prince of might!

Only be still and wait His leisure

Only draw away your heart

Only for thy sake

Only see ye that your heart

Only such love will suffice

Only such love will suffice

Only thy restless heart keep still

Onward then! for nought despairing

Onward then! for nought despairing

Onwards then! not long I wander

Open now Thy gates of beauty

Open, O my God, the gates

Open our lips to sing Thy praise

Open Thy bounteous hands in blessing

Or art thou friendless and alone

Or I cry in spring's sweet hours

Or I cry in spring's sweet hours

Or long or devious be thy way

Or though we weep soon bid our tears to cease

Order according to Thy mind

Order our path in all things

Other weary eyes may close

Others dare the treacherous wave

Our all, O God, is nothing in Thine eyes

Our dear Lord of grace hath given

Our enemy is put to shame

Our Father, Thou in heav'n above

Our fathers who are now no more

Our foes, O God, are in Thy hand

Our heavenward course begins when we

Our might is nought but weakness, soon

Our pardon is Thy gift, Thy love

Ours the fault it is, we own

Ours the fault it is, we own

Out of the depths I cry to Thee

Out of the depths I cry to thee

S

Sad with longing, sick with fears

Satan, I defy thee

Satan watches to betray me

Save her from the world her foe

Sayst thou, I know not how or where

Scarce can he stand alone, far less

Science with her keen-eyed glance

Search all my hidden parts, whate'er impure

See how everything that liveth

See how I have gone astray

See how in this wilderness

See, my soul, thy Saviour chooses

See the children of His love

See the fetters that have bound me

See Thy little flock dispersing

Seeing I am Jesus' lamb

Seems it in my anguish lone

Seems it in my anguish lone

Sendeth He some cross to bear

Shall I not sing praise to Thee

Shall I not sing praise to Thee

Shall I not then be filled with gladness

Shall I not then be filled with joy

Shall I o'er the future fret

Shall I weary me with fretting

Shall I weary me with fretting

She hath escaped all danger now

Shine in my heart, and bring me joy and light

Shine on the darken'd and the cold

Shine on the darken'd and the cold

Show me now a Father's love

Sin brought us grief, but Christ relief

Sin, Death, and Hell, and Satan

Sin of courage hath bereft me

Sin of courage hath bereft me

Sin of courage hath bereft me

Sin washed away, hushed all alarms

Since but the pure in heart are blest

Since but the pure in heart are blest

Since Christ has gone to heav'n His home

Since Christ hath reach'd His glorious throne

Since Christ hath reached His glorious throne

Since Christ is gone to heaven, His home

Since first the world began to be

Since first the world began to be

Since then my course is traced by Him

Since then neither change nor end

Since then neither change nor end

Since this I know, oh wherefore sink

Since Thou didst leave the grave again

Since Thou from death didst rise again

Since Thou hast died, the Pure, the Just

Since Thou hast died, the Pure, the Just

Since Thou my God and Father art

Since Thou my God and Father art

Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving

Sing, pray, and swerve not from His ways

Sing we His praises

Single and clear, not weak or blind

Sink not yet, my soul, to slumber

Sink not yet, my soul, to slumber

Sink thou deeply in our mind

Slay in me the wayward will

Slay in me the wayward will

'So be It,' then I say

"So be it" then I say

So doth Thy boundless Love embrace

So glows Thy love within this frame

So grant me then in weal and woe

So help us, Christ, our Hope in loss!

So holy is this day of days

So I, too, dare to come to Thee

So may God, the Righteous, brook

So may God, the Righteous, brook

So on His Word relying

So shall the creature ever serve me here

So shall Thy goodness here be still adored

So shall we all, until Thy heaven we see

So they with us may evermore

So they with us may evermore

So to God I leave it all

So we commend, Lord, to Thy grace

Soldiers of the Cross, be strong

Soldiers of the Cross, take courage!

Soon may that fire from heaven be lent us

Soon Time for us shall cease to reign

Sore is my grief and lonely

Soul and body, life and goods

Soul, thy incense also proffer

Soul, thy incense also proffer

Speak, O God, and I will hear Thee

Speak Thou for me! Thou art

Spirit of childhood! loved of God

Spirit Thou of strength and power

Spread, oh spread, thou mighty Word

Spread, oh spread, thou mighty Word

Still He comes within us

Still I read the ancient story

Still shall they leave that Word His might

Still shall they leave that Word His might

Still shall they leave that Word its might

Strive aright when God doth call thee

Strive when thou art called of God

Strong Champion! For this comfort see

Strong Champion! For this comfort see

Strong Son of God, break down Thy foes

Such the King will ever deign to teach

Such the King will evermore defend

Such the King will stoop to and embrace

Such the King with blessing will secure

Suffering is the work now sent

Sun and moon and stars so bright

Sun of Love, when Thou dost greet me

Sun, who all my life dost brighten

Sun, who all my life dost brighten

Sweet for each other oft to plead

Sweetest Fount of holy gladness

Sweetest joy the soul can know

Sweetly all the air is stirr'd

Sweetly all the air is stirred

Sweetly sings the nightingale

That so with all our hearts we may

That so with all our hearts we may

That thirst and bitter draught of Thine

That Thou wast so meek and stainless

That ye should see my grave, alas!

The best will is our Father's will

The body and the house

The body calmly sleeps in earth

The body hastes to slumber

The body hastes to slumber

The body rests, its labours over

The brightness of Thy glory was the Son

The brooks rush gurgling through the sand

The buried grain of wheat must die

The buried grain of wheat must die

The child hath now its Father seen

The Church of Christ that He hath hallow'd here

The Church's deserts paths restore

The common ways are trodden not of Thee

The corn springs up, a wealth untold

The crown of life he weareth

The day expires

The day is done

The dwellings of the just resound

The dwellings of the just resound

The Eastern sages bringing

The Eastern sages gladly bring

The faith His word hath caused to shine

The fears of death and of the grave

The field can never bear its fruits

The golden morn flames up the Eastern sky

The golden sunbeams with their joyous gleams

The grave can nought destroy

The grave hath lost its terrors

The happy sunshine all is gone

The happy sunshine all is gone

The heart that's meek and lowly

The old year now hath pass'd away

The Patriarchs' and Prophets' noble train

The Patriarchs' and Prophets' noble train

The perfect beauty of that sphere

The power of Thy great majesty

The precious seed of weeping

The prophets cried; "Ah, would He came

The prophets cried; "Ah, would He came

The prophets' message now at last

The rest appointed thee of God

The rich man in his wealth confides

The rich man in his wealth confides

The Rose which I am singing

The Sign how Truth, once crucified

The Son delighteth to obey

The soul and body Thou dost hold in life

The strife is o'er

The strong be quick to raise

The sun's sweet light

The sunbeams pale

The times are sore and perilous

The treasure that is stored not there

The trees stand thick and dark with leaves

The voice of conscience in the soul hath shown

The voice of Everlasting Love

The way of darkness that He trod

The ways are countless, none the same

The whole wide world, O Spirit!

The word of God they cannot touch

The Word will save thee from the smart

The world around is passing

The world can show no truth like Thine

The world can show no truth like Thine

The world for me hath falsely set

The world is such a place

The world may call herself my foe

The world may fail and flee

The world that smiled when morn was come

The world that smiled when morn was come

Thee all the mountains praise

Thee, dear Lord, with heed I'll cherish

They open wide their ravenous jaws

They scourge Him, crown Him with a crown of thorn

Think on the covenant Thou hast never broken

Thou seest whatsoe'er I need

Thou soarest now through all their heights sublime

Thou, solemn Ocean, rollest to the strand

Thou sore-oppress'd

Thou sore-oppress'd

Thou stoopest once to suffer here

Thou stoopest once to suffer here

Thou strong and loving Son of Man

Thou Strong Defence, Thou Holy Light

Thou Strong Defence, Thou Holy Light

Thou the heart's most precious guest

Thou the heart's most precious guest

Thou virgin soul! O thou

Thou watchest that my foot should neither slip nor stray

Thou watchest that my foot should neither slip nor stray

Thou weepest o'er Jerusalem

Thou, who breakest ev'ry chain

Thou Who breakest every chain

Thou who dost command that all

Thou who dost command that all

Thou wilt be found of us

Thou'rt mine, yes, still thou art mine own!

Though all to Thee were faithless

Though awhile it be delay'd

Though awhile it be delay'd

Though Faith may droop and tremble here

Though fiercest foes my course oppose

Though fiercest foes my course oppose

Though great our sins and sore our woes

Though great our sins and sore our wounds

Though heavy it may seem, yet think

Though Hope seem now to have hoped in vain

Though I lavished all I have

Though long His promised aid delay

Though Love may weep with breaking heart

Though mountains crumble into dust

Though the tempter's wiles and cunning

Though to-day may not fulfil

Though today may not fulfil

Though we here must strive with weakness

Though we here must strive with weakness

Through all thy myriad tones that never cease

Through deserts of the cross Thou leadest

Through Him the glorious Source of Day

Through Him the glorious Source of Day

Through our own force we nothing can

Through our own force we nothing can

Through our own force we nothing can

Through Thee alone can I be blest

Through this dark and tearful place

Thus afresh with each new morning

Thus hath it pleased Thee to make plain

Thus hath it pleased Thee to make plain

Thus if thou hast known Him

Thus, Lord, we bring, through Christ Thy Son

Thus, Lord, we bring through Christ Thy Son

Thus my soul before her God

Thus my soul is still and waits

Thus, O Lord, in earth and heaven

Thus, O my soul, hast thou received thy will

Thus, O truest Friend, unite

Thus, O truest Friend, unite

Thus our path shall be

Thus our path shall be

Thus saith my heart, and means it well

Thus through all their lifetime rolls

Thus will I sing Thy praises here

Thus will I sing Thy praises here

Thy angels guard our sleeping hours

Thy angels guard our sleeping hours

Thy appearing, Lord, shall fill

Thy arising, Lord, shall fill

Thy bitter anguish o'er

Thy Christendom is singing night and day

Thy cross shall be before my sight

Thy gifts are manifold; Thou writ'st

Thy glory and Thy joy

Thy heart's unspoken pain He knows

Thy heavy groans, Thy bitter sighs

Thy humility

Thy joyful Spirit give me strength

Thy kingdom come! Thine let it be

Thy Majesty have I offended, Lord

Thy mercy let us see

Thy mighty working, mighty God

Thy misdeeds are thine no longer

Thy Name is great, Thy kingdom in us dwell

Thy parents' arms now yield thee

Thy parents' arms now yield thee

Thy Passion, Lord, inspires

Thy strength and solace let me prove

Thy thoughts are good, and Thou art kind

Thy Throne is fixed on high

Thy will be done on earth, O Lord

Thy word a wondrous guiding star

Thy Word, a wondrous Star, supplies

Thy word hath said, Thou art my Rock

Thy word hath still its glorious powers

Thy word hath still its glorious powers

Thy Word is like a flaming sword

Thy word is like a flaming sword

Thy Word, O Lord, is gentle dew

Thy Word, O Lord, like gentle dews

Thy Zion strews before Thce

Till at last I meet on high

Till at last I meet on high

Till it pleaseth Him who holds

Till now in false security

Time, thou speedest on but slowly

Time, thou speedest on but slowly

'Tis Christ has wrought this work for me

'Tis Christ, our God, who far on high

'Tis Christ our God who far on high

'Tis I to whom these pains belong

'Tis not hidden from my heart

'Tis Thou canst help alone

'Tis Thou, O Spirit, teachest

'Tis through Thy love alone we gain

'Tis Thy Father's will toward us

'Tis Thy Father's will towards us

'Tis when the lights of earth are gone

'Tis your office, Spirits bright

To combat for His glory here

To God's all-gracious heart and mind

To Him I live and die alone

To Him I live and die alone

To Him let us together pray

To Him let us together pray

To Him myself I wholly give

To me He spake "Hold fast by Me

To me the darksome tomb

To oft, alas! my heart hath loved to stray

To others Death seems dark and grim

To save me from the monster's power

To sin, there, oh let me

To the supper of the Lord

To thee for ever shall be given

To Thee how many thankful songs

To Thee I now stretch out mine arms

To Thee I rise in faith on high

To Thee I rise in faith on high

To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes

To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes

To Thee my kindred I commend

To Thee the Father giveth now

To this one God, the Lord of Sabaoth

To those I love will He be near

To those who love Him He denies

To whom else should I make my plea

To whom else should I make my plea

To yon world be Thou our light

To you this night in born a child

To you this night is born a child

To-day our Lord went up on high

True faith will grasp His mercy fast

True, I have transgress'd Thy will

True mirror of the Godhead! Perfect Light!

True Morning Sun of all my life, I pray

True Shepherd, who in love most deep

True that the godly man may know

Truest Friend, who canst not fail me

Truly hath He cared indeed

Trust thou in flattering tongues no more

Turn the darkness into light

Turn the darkness into light

Turn Thou us, and we shall be turned

'Twas a wondrous war, I trow

'Twas but a while that I was sent

'Twas by a path of sorrows drear

'Twas ever wont with Thee, my God

'Twas Love, that long ere time began

'Twas Love whose counsel gave to me

'Twas thus St. John hath taught ws

Two who ne'er upon this earth

Unite, Lord, in the bonds of peace

Until we join the host that cry

Unto all Thyself impart

Unworthy am I of Thy grace

Unworthy am I of Thy grace

Up, Brethren of the Cross! and haste

Up, quit the gates where sin abides

Wake and watch, or else thy night

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Wake, awake, for night is flying

Wake, Spirit, who in times now olden

Wakenest thou again to sorrow

Wakenest thou again to sorrow

Wash'd in the blood that gushes

Wash'd in the blood that gushes

Watch against the world that frowns

Watch against thyself, my soul

We all believe in One true God

We all believe in One true God

We are bound without, within

We are rich, for He was poor

We ask but one thing for our lot

We bury all our sin and crime

We cannot see as yet Thy glorious face

We Christians may rejoice to-day

We die with Thee; oh let us live

We die with Thee; oh let us live

We haughty sons of men

We have deserved, and patiently

We have no refuge; none on earth to aid us

We have no refuge, none on earth to aid us

We know for us a rest remains

We offer up ourselves to Thee

We offer up ourselves to Thee

We pass our nights in wakeful thought

We praise Thee with the earliest morning ray

We praise, we worship Thee, we trust

We pray Thee, O Eternal Son

We shall not rue our choice

We sow in tears; but let us keep

We stand bereft of help, and poor and lonely

We take thee for our chariot, stormy Sea!

We thank Thee, Father, that this day

We thank Thee, Father, that this day

We thank Thee for that gracious care

We thank Thee then, O God of heaven

We thank Thee then, O God of heaven

We who yet wander through the waste

We yield, O Thou true Life, to Thee

Wealth, I will not heed thee

Wealth, I will not heed thee

Wealth that this world can command

Weary am I, Lord, and worn

Weary am I of my pain

Weary souls with toil outworn

Weep not! dearest to my heart

Weep not, dearest to my heart

Weep not, my Redeemer lives!

Weep not, my Redeemer lives

Weep not that I take my leave

Weep not that the world I leave

Welcome, O my Saviour, now!

Welcome, Thou victor in the strife

Welcome Thou victor in the strife

Welcome to earth, Thou noble guest

Welcome to earth, Thou noble guest

Well content am I if only

Well contented is my heart

Well for him who all forsaking

Well for him who all forsaking

Well for him who all things losing

Well for him who all things losing

Well for him who nothing knoweth

Well for him who nothing knoweth

Well for him whom death has landed

Well for him whom death has landed

Well for those who in His strength have lived

Well He knows how best to grant me

Well He knows how best to grant me

Well I know this life of ours

Well our utmost efforts worth

Were earth a thousand times as fair

Were earth a thousand times as fair

What are earthly joys? a weary

What can I ask for more? Behold

What can these anxious cares avail thee

What can these anxious cares avail

What had I been if Thou wert not?

What here may shine I all resign

What here may shine I all resign

What human prudence fondly strives to bind

What is there I yet should do

What is there I yet should do

What is there my foes can do

What lives by life that is not Thine

What most would profit us He knows

What now sickens, mourns, and sighs

What pleases God, O pious soul

"What pleaseth God I frankly take

"What pleaseth God, that pleaseth me

What profit that He loosed and broke

What profit us His deeds and life

What profit ye His death and cross

What profits all that Christ hath taught

What profits it that Christ hath deigned

What profits it that Christ is born

What profits it that He is risen

What profits us His agony

What shall I, a sinner, do?

What strangest punishment! The Shepherd good

What strangest punishmnent is suffer'd yonder!--

What the fathers most desired

What though the world on us may fling

What though the world were full of fiends

What thrilling joy when on our sight

What within me and without

What within me and without

What without Thy aid is wrought

What without Thy aid is wrought

What would seem to hurt or shame thee

What would seem to hurt or shame thee

Whate'er may be His pleasure

Whate'er may be the burden

Whate'er my God ordains is right

Whate'er my God ordains is right

Whate'er of earthly good this life may grant me

Whate'er shall be His pleasure

Whate'er the burden be

Whatsoe'er my heart hath planned

When all around is darkling

When all my mind is darkened o'er

When along the brook I wander

When anguish'd and perplex'd I lift my weary eyes

When anguish'd and perplexed, with many a sigh and tear

When comes the hour of failing breath

When evil tongues with stinging blame

When God's just wrath and anger burn

When His strokes upon me light

When His strokes upon me light

When I cry for help, oh hear me

When I dread some coming ill

When I reach that home of gladness

When I reach that home of gladness

When I sleep my Guardian wakes

When I sleep my Guardian wakes

When I wander by the stream

When I watch the moon arise

When I watch the moon arise

When in the hour of utmost need

When in the hour of utmost need

When late at night my rest I take

When life's day hath fleeted by

When mind, and thought, O Saviour

When my heart with longing sickens

When my heart with longing sickens

When my last hour is close at hand

When my last hour is close at hand

When my trials tarry long

When my trials tarry long

When now at last the hour is come

When on the cross the Saviour hung

When o'er my sins I sorrow

When reason contradicts Thy law, or climbs

When shall the sway

When sorrow and remorse

When strength and heart grow faint and sad

When the golden sun forth goes

When the heart must know

When the heart must know

When the last agony draws nigh

When the Lord recalls the banish'd

When the Lord recalls the banish'd

When the twilight now hath vanish'd

When these brief trial-days are spent

When thus Thy Spirit in me burneth

When weakness on me lies

Whence come these sorrows, whence this cruel woe?

Whence come these sorrows, whence this mortal anguish

Whenever again thou sinkest

Whene'er I hope in Thee, my Friend

Whene'er I hope in Thee, my Friend

Where He joins, Man, place no bar!

Where is strength, Lord, to fulfil

Where now my spirit stayeth

Where now my spirit stayeth

Where shall we aid and comfort find

Where they bear the sceptre

Where Thy joyous splendours dart

Where would the garden's splendour be

Wherefore dost Thou longer tarry

Wherefore dost Thou longer tarry

Wherefore my hope is in the Lord

Wherefore should I grieve and pine?

Wherein as Christians we may live

Wheresoe'er my couch is made

Wherever I go, whate'er my task

While that ye are in your mansions resting

While that ye are resting in your home

While the foe my soul is telling

While yet the morn is breaking

Who are those array'd in brightness

Who are those arrayed in light

Who are those before God's throne

Who are those that, fare before me

Who are those that in their hands

Who follows Christ whate'er betide

Who hath Thee, knows Thy word and love

Who is there that would not gladly die

Who joins him to that Lord

Who keepeth not God's word, yet saith

Who knows how near my end may be?

Who knows how near my end may be?

Who, Lord, by searching e'er shall find out Thee

Who, Lord, of us, with thought and tongue so weak

Who once was borne, betray'd and slain

Who puts his trust in God most just

Who puts his trust in God most just

Who seeks in weakness an excuse

Who sees God in the precious stone

Who then would faint, nor join to share

Who would make the prize his own

Who wrestling long, with many a cry

Who yet o'er earth in time must roam

Whoso shall ponder oft these words

Why art thou full of anxious fear

Why art thou thus cast down, my heart?

Why art thou thus cast down, my heart?

Why didst Thou leave Thy throne

Why halt thus, O deluded heart

Why heed ye then the craft and noise

Why is it that life is no longer sad

Why mourn, then, that I now go hence?

Will come, and with a mighty hand

Wilt Thou then always bear my sins in mind?

Wisdom hath made them all

With a glad and fearless mien

With all Thy saints, Thee, Lord, we sing

With all Thy saints, Thee, Lord, we sing

With holy zeal then fill us

With peace and joy I now depart

With the sages from afar

With the sages from afar

With the wise who know Thee right

With the wise who know Thee right

With Thee, Lord, would I cast my lot

With Thee, O Father, therefore may

Witness in our hearts that God

Witness our hearts that God

Word of Life! most pure and strong

Word of Life! most pure and strong

Work Thou in me, and heavenward guide

World, farewell! Of thee I'm tired

World, farewell! Of thee I'm tired

Worldly joys I cast behind me

Would I could praise Thee with an angel's tongue!

Would I then, to soothe my sorrow

Would I then, to soothe my sorrow

Would that I today might leave

Would the powers of ill affright

Would the powers of ill affright

Would the world my steps entice

Would there were help within our walls!

Wouldst thou inherit life with Christ on high?

Wouldst Thou that I should tarry here

Wrestle, till through every vein

Wrestle, till thy zeal is burning

Wrestle with strong prayers and cries

Yes, let us praise our God and raise

Yes, let us truly know within

Yes, Lord, Thou art as rich to-day

Yes, Lord, Thou art as rich to-day

Yes, Lord, through all my changing days

Yes, Lord, Thy servants meet Thee

Yes, Lord, 'tis of Thy power alone to-day

Yes, make me Thine,--though I am weak

Yes, my God, I come before Thee

Yes, our wisdom vainly ponders

Yes, praise Him, for He never

Yes, scatter'd are our brothers now

Yes, take my heart, and in it rule

Yes, they shall praise it, till its fame

Yes, Thy cross hath power to heal

Yes, Thy warning voice is plain

Yes, Thy warning voice is plain

Yes, when I hence betake me

Yes, when I must depart

Yes, with the eye of faith

Yes, yes, to Thee my soul would cleave

Yet be the hour that none can tell

Yet, Father, each fresh aching heart

Yet God seeks them by His care

Yet grant the eye of faith, O Lord

Yet grant the eye of faith, O Lord

Yet have I somewhat that my Lord can please

Yet He in love delayeth long

Yet I will not turn from Thee

Yet I would leave it to thy choice

Yet it seems I strive in vain

Yet more from Thee I dare to claim

Yet oft we think, is aught withdrawn

Yet this is but a little part

Yet Thou dost even for my sake

Yet though conscience' voice appall me

Yet unrequited, Lord, I would not leave Thee

Yonder in joy the sheaves we bring
