Common Hymns Lyrics

Lord O Lord, O Lord Have Mercy

Lord O Lord, Lord O Lord have mercy (2)
Christ O Christ, Christ O Christ, have mercy (2)
Lord O Lord, Lord O Lord have mercy (2)

Glory to God

Chorus:
Glory to God (2)
Glory to God in the highest
and on earth peace
on earth peace to people of good will.

We praise you, we bless you, we adore you,
We glorify you, we give you thanks
for your great glory.
Lord God, heavenly King,
O God, Almighty Father.

Lord Jesus Christ, Only begotten Son,
Lord God, lamb of God, Son of the Father
You take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us (2)
You take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer (2)
You are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us.

For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord
You alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit in the glory of God the Father.

Amen.

Lord I Want to

Chorus:
Lord I want to, I want to offer you
I want to offer you everything I have
Take my heart Lord, make it like yours, Lord
And make me generous to you Oh Lord. (2)

When I get back home and I am on my own
If I forget this my offering
Just ring a bell in my heart,
Make me with a little start
And I'll remember and I will sing.

When I come across a splinter of your
Cross and I feel I cannot bear
Just give a part on my back,
Just to tell me you are there and
I'll take courage and I won't care.

And in temptation in times of tension
When I am weak and about to fall
Just let me lean on your side,
Let me e'er with you abide
And in your presence, I'll face it all.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

As we weak and heavy-laden
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He'll take and shield you,
You will find a solace there.

Blessed Saviour, Thou hast promised
Thou wilt all our burdens bear;
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright, unclouded,
There will be no need for prayer
Rapture, praise and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.
