Jesus, I my cross have taken

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #436 (1899) Topics: Christians Steadfastness of; Consecration; Cross Bearing; Fellowship with God; Following Christ; Sanctification; Self-Denial Lyrics: 1 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. 2 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour too; Human hearts and looks deceive me: Thou art not, like them, untrue. And while Thou shalt smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might, Foes may hate, and friends forsake me: Show Thy face and all is bright. 3 Man may trouble an distress me, 'Twill but drive me to Thy breast; Life with trials hard may pressume, Heaven will bring me sweeter rest. Oh, 'tis not in grief to harm me, While thy love is left to me! Oh,'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee! 4 Take, my soul, thy full salvation; Rise o'er sin and fear and care; Joy to find, in every station, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee! What a Father's smile is thine; What a Saviour died to win thee; Child of heaven, shouldst thou r epine? Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ARMSTRONG

Seal Thou my breast, and let me wear That pledge of love for ever there! 3 How blest are they who still abide Close sheltered at Thy bleeding side! Who life and strength from Thee derive, And by Thee move, and in Thee live. 4 What are our works but sin and death, Till Thou Thy quickening Spirit breathe? Thou giv'st the power Thy grace to move: O wondrous grace! O boundless love! 5 How can it be, Thou heavenly King, That Thou shouldst us to glory bring? Make slaves the partners of Thy throne, Decked with a never-fading crown? 6 First-born of many brethren Thou! To Thee, lo! all our souls we bow; To Thee our hearts and hands we give: Thine may we die, Thine may we live! Languages: English Tune Title: PENTECOST
