Olney Hymn 25 Jehovah Jesus
My song shall bless the Lord of all,
My praise shall climb to His abode;
Thee,
Saviour, by that name I call,
My song shall bless the Lord of all,
My praise shall climb to His abode;
Thee,
Saviour, by that name I call,
O God
who by Thy prophet's hand Didst smite the rocky brake, Whence water came, at Thy command, Thy people's thirst to slake; Strike, now, upon this granite wall, Stern, obdurate, and high; And let some drops of pity fall For us who starve an...
Daughter of Jove, relentless Power,
Thou tamer of the human breast,
Whose iron scourge and tort'ring
The Bad affright, afflict the Best
When Hagar found the bottle spent And wept o'er Ishmael,
A message from the Lord was sent To guide her to a well
Should not Elijah's cake and cruse Convince us at this day,
A gracious God will not refuse Provisions by the way
Too many,
Lord, abuse Thy grace In this licentious day,
And while they boast they see Thy face,
They turn their own away
Almighty King
whose wondrous hand Supports the weight of sea and land;
Whose grace is such a boundless store,
No heart shall break that sighs for more
At morn- at noon- at twilight dim- Maria

In joy and woe- in good and ill- Mother of God, be with me still
When the hours flew brightly by, And not a cloud obscured the sky, My soul, lest it should truant be, ...

And what she has she misapplies,
For want of clearer light
How long beneath the law I lay In bondage and distress;
The saints should never be dismay'd,
Nor sink in hopeless fear;
For when they least expect His aid,
The Saviour will appear
Breathe from the gentle south,
O Lord,
And cheer me from the north;
Blow on the treasures of thy word,
Since I am coming to that holy room, Where, with thy choir of saints for evermore, I shall be made thy music; as I come I tune the instrument here at the door, And what I must do then, think here before
Whilst my physicians by their love are ...
Thou hidden love of God, whose height, Whose depth unfathom'd no man knows, I see from far thy beauteous light, Inly I sigh for thy repose; My heart is pain'd, nor can it be At rest, till it finds rest in thee
Thy secret voice invites me stil...
