| Hath patient love a power no more | M |
| To move thy faithless heart | V |
| Wilt thou not follow Me | B |
| These weary feet of Mine | W |
| Have stained and red the pathway dread | X |
| In search of thee and thine | W |

| O Lord O Love divine | W |
| Once more I follow Thee | B |
| Let me abide so near Thy side | K |
| That I Thy face may see | B |
| I clasp Thy pierced hand | D |
| O Thou who diedst for me | B |
| I'll bear Thy cross thro' pain and loss | C |
| So let me cling to Thee | B |
