JESUS, THE VERY THOUGHT OF THEE
#141, Hymns Jesus, the very thought of thee With sweetness fills my breast But sweeter far thy face to see And in thy presence rest

Jesus, our only joy be thou As thou our prize wilt be Jesus, be thou our glory now And through eternity
Jesus, the very thought of thee text: attr. to Bernard of Clairvaux, trans. by Edward Caswall; music: John B. Dykes

The winds and the waves shall obey thy will Peace, be still Peace, be still Whether the wrath of the storm tossed sea Or demons or men or whatever it be No waters can swallow the ship where lies The Master of ocean and earth and skies They all shall sweetly obey thy will Peace, be still Peace, be still They all shall sweetly obey thy will Peace, peace, be still text: Mary Ann Baker; music: H.R. Palmer

BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN GIVEN MUCH
#93, Hymns “Prayer of Thanksgiving” instrumental music: Anon., The Netherlands
#219, Hymns Because I have been given much I too must give Because of thy great bounty, Lord Each day I live I shall divide my gifts from thee With every brother that I see Who has the need of help from me
Because I have been sheltered, fed By the good care I cannot see another’s lack And I not share My glowing fire, my loaf of bread My roof’s safe shelter overhead That he too may be comforted
Because of thy life’s mission, Lord I too will serve I’ll leave the comfort of my home To teach thy word I’ll seek thy sheep who’ve gone astray And those who’ve never known the way I will make thy work my work today
I shall give love to those in need I’ll show that love by word and deed Thus shall my thanks be thanks indeed text: Grace Noll Crowell, © renewed 1964 by Grace Noll Crowell; additional verse by Kenneth Cope; music: Phillip Landgrave, © 1975 Broadman Press
