Jesus lover of my soul - Charles Wesley


Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high.
Hide me, O my Savior, hide, till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last.
Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
Leave, ah! leave me not alone, still support and comfort me.
All my trust on Thee is stayed, all my help from Thee I bring;
Cover my defenseless head with the shadow of Thy wing.
Wilt Thou not regard my call? Wilt Thou not accept my prayer?
Lo! I sink, I faint, I fall—Lo! on Thee I cast my care;
Reach me out Thy gracious hand! While I of Thy strength receive,
Hoping against hope I stand, dying, and behold, I live.
Thou, O Christ, art all I want, more than all in Thee I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy Name, I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace.
Plenteous grace with Thee is found, grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art, freely let me take of Thee;
Spring Thou up within my heart; rise to all eternity.

Vós Criaturas de Deus Pai


O Mister Bean canta esse hino em um célebre episódio.

Vós, criaturas de Deus Pai,
Todos erguei a voz, cantai:
Aleluia, aleluia!
Tu, sol dourado a refulgir,
Tu, lua em prata a reluzir,
Oh! Louvai-o, oh, louvai-o!
Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia!

Oh! Boa terra mãe que dá
Infindas bênçãos, cantai já:
Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia!
Frutos e flores juntos dai
Glória a Deus, Senhor e Pai
Oh! Louvai-o, oh, louvai-o!
Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia!

Vós, homens sábios e de bem,
A todos proclamai também,
Aleluia, aleluia!
Louvor ao Filho, glória ao Pai,
E ao Espírito Santo louvai!
Oh! Louvai-o, oh, louvai-o!
Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia!
