4 Seek we, then, the Lord's Anointed; He shall grant us peace and rest: Ne'er was suppliant disappointed Who through Christ his prayer addressed.
Saviour! teach me, day by day, Love's sweet lessons to obey; Sweeter lessons can not be, Loving him who first loved me.
2 With a child-like heart of love, At thy bidding may I move; Prompt to serve and follow thee, Loving him who first loved me.
3 Teach me all thy steps to trace, Strong to follow in thy grace; Learning how to love from thee, Loving him who first loved me.
4 Love in loving finds employ-- In obedience all her joy; Ever new that joy will be, Loving him who first loved me.
5 Thus may I rejoice to show That I feel the love I owe; Singing, till thy face I see, Of his love who first loved me.

In heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear; And safe is such confiding, For nothing changes here. The storm may roar without me, My heart may low be laid, But God is round about me, And can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever he may guide me, No want shall turn me back: My Shepherd is beside me, And nothing can I lack. His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim; He knows the way he taketh, And I will walk with him.
3 Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o'er me, Where the dark clouds have been. My hope I can not measure, My path to life is free, My Saviour has my treasure, And he will walk with me.
786 6s & 4s. Be thou my strong Rock. Psalm 31:2.
O strong to save and bless, My Rock and Righteousness, Draw near to me; Blessing, and joy, and might, Wisdom, and love, and light, Are all with thee.
2 My Refuge and my Rest, As child on mother's breast I lean on thee; From faintness and from fear, When foes and ill are near, Deliver me.
3 O, answer me, my God; Thy love is deep and broad, Thy grace is true; Thousands this grace have shared; O, let _me_ now be heard, O, love _me_, too.
Through the love of God our Saviour, All will be well: Free and changeless is his favor; All, all is well: Precious is the blood that healed us; Perfect is the grace that sealed us; Strong the hand stretched out to shield us; All must be well;
2 Though we pass through tribulation, All will be well: Ours is such a full salvation; All, all is well: Happy, still in God confiding, Fruitful, if in Christ abiding, Holy, through the Spirit's guiding, All must be well.
