Christ, of All My Hopes the Ground

Author: Ralph Wardlaw Hymnal: The Hymnbook #314 (1955) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Life in Christ Hope and Aspiration Lyrics: 1 Christ, of all my hopes the Ground, Christ, the Spring of all my joy, Still in Thee may I be found, Still for Thee my powers employ, Still for Thee my powers employ. 2 Let Thy love my heart inflame; Keep Thy fear before my sight; Be Thy praise my highest aim; Be Thy smile my chief delight, Be Thy smile my chief delight. 3 Fountain of o'erflowing grace, Freely from Thy fullness give; Till I close my earthly race, May I prove it Christ to live, May I prove it Christ to live. 4 Firmly trusting in Thy blood, Nothing shall my heart confound; Safely I shall pass the flood, Safely reach Emmanuel's ground, Safely reach Emmanuel's ground. 5 Thus, O thus, an entrance give To the land of cloudless sky; Having known it Christ to live, Let me know it gain to die, Let me know it gain to die.

My longing grows when day to night is turning; And though I find Him not as day recedeth, My heart still pleadeth. 2 His hand I see in every force and power, Where waves the harvest and where blooms the flower; In every breath I draw, my spirit burneth: His love discerneth. 3 When summer winds blow gently, then I hear Him; Where sing the birds, where rush the streams, I'm near Him; But nearer still when in my heart He blesses Me with caresses. 4 And yet, to hide Him, oft a cloud prevaileth; My prayer can reach Him, but my vision faileth. Would I could see His face and heart so loving, And cease my roving. 5 O where such beauty is itself revealing In all that lives, through all creation stealing, What must the Source be whence it comes, the Giver? Beauty forever. 6 Be strong, my soul; hope, pray, await His favor, And thou shalt know the sweetness of thy Saviour; When in His gentle arms secure He holds thee, His love enfolds thee. 7 Soon on that shore where stormy wave ne'er breaketh The weary dove its final refuge taketh; The timorous lamb shall by thy Shepherd's favor Find rest forever.
