Charles Wesley, 1740
[Key: D]

Verse 1
Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ the true, the only Light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o’er the shades of night;
Dayspring from on high, be near;
Daystar, in my heart appear.

Verse 2
Dark and cheerless is the morn
Unaccompanied by Thee;
Joyless is the day’s return
Till Thy mercy’s beams I see;
Till they inward light impart,
Glad my eyes and warm my heart.

Verse 3
Visit, then, this soul of mine;
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
Fill me, Radiancy Divine;
Scatter all my unbelief;
More and more Thyself display,
Shining to the perfect day.

J. Edwin Orr (1912-1987)
[Key: Eb]

Verse 1
Search me, O God,
And know my heart today;
Try me, O Lord,
Know my thoughts, I pray:
See if there be
Some wicked way in me,
Cleanse me from ev’ry sin,
And set me free.

Verse 2
I praise Thee, Lord,
For cleansing me from sin;
Fulfill Thy Word,
And make me pure within;
Fill me with fire,
Where once I burned with shame
Grant my desire
To magnify Thy Name.

Verse 3
Lord, take my life,
And make it wholly Thine;
Fill my poor heart with
Thy great love divine;
Take all my will,
My passion, self and pride;
I now surrender— Lord,
In me abide.

Verse 4
O Holy Ghost,
Revival comes from Thee;
Send a revival—
Start the work in me:
Thy Word declares
Thou wilt supply our need;
For blessing now, O Lord,
I humbly plead.

Psalm 19:7-11 & 14
King James Version
[Key: C]

Verse 1
Let the words of my mouth
And the meditation of my heart,
Be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord.

Verse 2
The law of the Lord is perfect,
Converting the soul:
The testimony of the Lord is sure,
Making wise the simple.

More to be desired
Are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey
And the honeycomb.

Verse 3
The statutes of the Lord are right,
Rejoicing the heart:
The commandment of the Lord is pure,
Enlightening the eyes.

More to be desired
Are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey
And the honeycomb.

Verse 4
The fear of the Lord is clean,
Enduring for ever:
The judgments of the Lord are true
And righteous altogether.

More to be desired
Are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey
And the honeycomb.

Moreover by them is
Thy servant warned:
And in keeping of them
There is great reward,

And in keeping of them
There is great reward.

Jeff Bourque
[Key: D]

Verse 1
May we run this race, may we keep the faith,
May our eyes be fixed on Jesus
That we’ll not lose heart in our struggle with sin
And through suffering know endurance.

Verse 2
May we arm ourselves with the mind of Christ,
To rejoice in trials and be not surprised.
May our hearts be so consumed by You
That we never cease to praise!

Verse 3
May our company be the saints You’ve called
May we all stand firm in One Spirit,
That the gospel’s truth may resound on earth
That all living things may hear it

Verse 4
May the fruits of faith mark the path we trod
Through the life of Christ to the glory of God.
May our hearts be so consumed by You
That we never cease to praise!

Verse 5
May the words we share be Your grace and peace
May our tongues speak Your proclamations,
That the many parts of the Body of Christ
Be affirmed in their right relation.

Verse 6
As we long and wait for our Groom to come
May we learn to love and spur each other on.
May our hearts be so consumed by You
That we never cease to praise!

Verse 7
When that day arrives, and the race is won,
When our griefs give way to deliverance.
We will fully know as we’re fully known,
All our groans will end as new songs begin.

Verse 8
And a multitude from every tribe and tongue,
Wearing robes of white
Will stand before Your throne
And our hearts will be so consumed by You
That we’ll never cease to praise!
May our hearts be so consumed by You
That we never cease to praise!

Paul Gerhardt, 1739
[Key: F]

Verse 1
Jesus, Thy boundless love to me
No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Oh knit my thankful heart to Thee
And reign without a rival there.
Thine, wholly Thine, alone I am!
Be Thou alone my constant flame.

Verse 2
O, grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell but Thy pure love alone!
Oh, may Thy love possess me whole,
My Joy, my Treasure, and my Crown!
All coldness from my heart remove;
My every act, word, thought, be love.

Verse 3
O Love, how gracious is Thy ray!
All fear before Thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away
Wherever Thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek, but Thee!

Verse 4
In suffering be Thy love my peace,
In weakness be Thy love my power;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that important hour,
In death as life be Thou my guide,
And save me, who for me hast died.

Higher Ground

Johnson Oatman Jr., 1898
[Key: Eb]

Verse 1

I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I’m upward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
