Comforted
Author: M. Fraser Hymnal: Sacred Songs No. 1 #15 (1896) Topics: Comfort - Comforter First Line: After a long and weary strife Lyrics: 1 After a long and weary strife,
After a struggle ‘twixt death and life,
How sweet to feel the tempest cease,
The angry billows sink to peace,
And perfect calm begin.
2 After the night of darkness here,
After the gloom, the doubt, the fear,
How sweet to hail heav’n’s dawning day,
When ev’ry cloud is rolled away,
And ev’ry eye sees clear.
3 After the din and war of earth,
After its wild, discordant mirth,
How sweet to list the rapt’rous song
That rises from the white robed throng,
Upon the crystal sea.
4 After the heart’s deep agony,
After its yearning for sympathy,
How passing sweet will be the rest
Within the arms, upon the breast,
Of Christ the Comforter. Scripture: Luke 16:25 Tune Title: [After a long and weary strife]

On whom I cast my every care,
On whom for all things I depend,
Inspire, and then accept, my prayer.
2 If I have tasted of Thy grace,
The grace that sure salvation brings,
If with me now Thy Spirit stays,
And hovering hides me in His wings,
3 Still let Him with my weakness stay,
Nor for a moment's space depart;
Evil and danger turn away,
And keep till He renews my heart.
4 When to the right or left I stray,
His voice behind me may I hear,
"Return, and walk in Christ, thy way;
Fly back to Christ; for sin is near."
5 His sacred unction from above
Be still my comforter and guide;
Till all the hardness He remove,
And in my loving heart reside.
6 Jesus, I fain would walk in Thee,
From nature's every path retreat;
Thou art my Way, my Leader be,
And set upon the rock my feet.
7. Uphold me, Saviour, or I fall;
O reach me out Thy gracious hand!
Only on Thee for help I call,
Only by faith in Thee I stand. Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER NEW

Come visit every waiting mind,
Come pour Thy joys on human kind;

And make Thy temples worthy Thee.

Come, and Thy sacred unction bring,
To sanctify us while we sing.

Rich in Thy sevenfold energy!

Whose power does heaven and earth command,
Refine and purge our earthly parts,
And stamp Thine image on our hearts.

Subdue the rebel in our soul;
Chase from our minds the subtle foe,
And peace, the fruit of faith, bestow;
And, lest again we go astray,
Protect and guide us in the way.

Why should the children of a King

Go mourning all their days?
Great Comforter, descend and bring
Some tokens of Thy grace.

And seal the heirs of heaven?
When wilt Thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiven?
3 Assure my conscience of her part
In my Redeemer’s blood,
And bear Thy witness, with my heart
That I am born of God.
4 Thou art the earnest of His love,
The pledge of joys to come;
And Thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safely bear me home. Languages: English
Why should the children of a King
Come Down, O Love Divine!
Author: Richard F. Littledale Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #304 (1990) Meter: 6.6.11.6.6.11 Topics: Holy Spirit Comforter; Holy Spirit Comforter First Line: Come down, O Love divine Lyrics: 1 Come down, O love divine! Seek out this soul of mine
and visit it with your own ardor glowing:
O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear,
and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn, till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let your glorious light shine ever on my sight,
and make my pathway clear, by your illuming.
3 Let holy charity my outward vesture be,
and lowliness become my inner clothing;
true lowliness of heart which takes the humbler part,
and for its own shortcomings weeps with loathing.
4 And so the yearning strong with which the soul will long
shall far surpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace till we become the place
in which the Holy Spirit makes his dwelling.
Scripture: Psalm 119:105 Languages: English Tune Title: DOWN AMPNEY

The Lord's My Shepherd
Author: William Whittingham Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #9 (1980) Topics: Christ Comforter; Christ Comforter Lyrics: 1 The Lord’s my Shepherd, I’ll not want;
He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; He leadeth me
The quiet waters by.

And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
E'en for His own name’s sake.
3 Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
Yet will I fear no ill;
For Thou art with me, and Thy rod
And staff me comfort still.
4 My table Thou hast furnishèd
In presence of my foes;
My head Thou dost with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me;
And in God’s house forevermore
My dwelling place shall be.
Amen.
