Popular passages
Page 129 - Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow Thee; Naked, poor, despised, forsaken, Thou, from hence, my all shalt be. Perish every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known; Yet how rich is my condition! God and heaven are still my own.

Let Thy bright beams arise ; Dispel the sorrow from our minds, The darkness from our eyes. 2 Revive our drooping faith, Our doubts and fears remove, And kindle in our breasts the flame Of never-dying love. 3 Convince us of our sin ; Then lead to Jesus' blood, And to our wondering view reveal The secret love of God.
Page 95 - High as the heavens are raised, Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of his grace Our highest thoughts exceed.
