440 Abide with Me
1
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me!
2
Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see:
O Thou who changest not, abide with me!
3
I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me!
4
Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies:
Heaven’s morning breaks and earth’s vain shadows flee:
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!
185 Jesus Paid It All
1
I hear the Saviour say, “Thy strength indeed is small!
Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in Me thine all in all.”
Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain – He washed it white as snow.
2
Lord, now indeed I find Thy power, and Thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots and melt the heart of stone.
Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain – He washed it white as snow.
3
For nothing good have I where-by Thy grace to claim –
I’ll wash my garments white in the blood of Calvary’s Lamb.
Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain – He washed it white as snow.
4
And when before the throne I stand in Him complete,
“Jesus died my soul to save,” my lips shall still repeat.
Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain – He washed it white as snow.
816 Have Thine Own Way, Lord
1
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.
Mold me and make me after Thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still.
2
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Search me and try me, Master, today!
Whiter than snow, Lord, wash me just now,
As in Thy presence humbly I bow.
3
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Wounded and weary, help me, I pray!
Power, all power, surely is Thine!
Touch me and heal me, Saviour divine!
4
Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!
Hold o’er my being absolute sway!
Fill with Thy Spirit till all shall see
Christ only, always, living in me!
