We Would See Jesus; for the Shadows
Author: Anna B. Warner Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 275 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:56 First Line: We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; for the shadows lengthen
Across this little landscape of our life;
We would see Jesus, our weak faith to strengthen,
For the last weariness, the final strife.
2 We would see Jesus; the great rock foundation
Whereon our feet were set by sov'reign grace;
Nor life nor death, with all their agitation,
Can thence remove us, if we see His face.
3 We would see Jesus; sense is all too binding,
And heav'n appears too dim, too far away.
We would see Thee, Thyself our hearts reminding
What Thou hast suffered, our great debt to pay.
4 We would see Jesus; this is all we're needing;
Strength, joy, and willingness come with the sight;
We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading,
Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.
Amen. Topics: Fellowship with God Used With Tune: CONSOLATION

Whose reign shall never cease. (Chorus)

From All Thy Saints in Warfare
Author: Horatio Nelson Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 96 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:55-60 Lyrics: 1 From all Thy saints in warfare,
For all Thy saints at rest,
To Thee, O blessed Jesus,
All praises be addressed;
Thou, Lord, didst win the battle,
That they might conqu'rors be;
Their crowns of living glory
Are lit with rays from Thee.
2 Praise for the first of martyrs,
Who saw Thee ready stand
To aid in midst of torments,
To plead at God's right hand.
Share we with him, if summoned
By death our Lord to own,
On earth the faithful witness,
In heav'n the martyr crown.
3 Apostles, prophets, martyrs,
And all the sacred throng,
Who wear the spotless raiment,
Who raise the ceaseless song,
For these, passed on before us,
Saviour, we Thee adore,
And, walking in their footsteps,
Would serve Thee more and more.
4 Then praise we God the Father,
And praise we God the Son,
And God the Holy Spirit,
Eternal Three in One;
Till all the ransomed number
Fall down before the throne,
And honor, power, and glory
Ascribe to God alone.
Amen.

We Would See Jesus; Lo! His Star
Author: J. Edgar Park Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:56 First Line: We would see Jesus, lo! His star is shining Lyrics: 1 We would see Jesus; lo! His star is shining
Above the stable while the angels sing;
There in a manger on the hay reclining;
Haste, let us lay our gifts before the King.
2 We would see Jesus, Mary's son most holy,
Light of the village life from day to day;
Shining revealed through every task most lowly,
The Christ of God, the Life, the Truth, the Way.
3 We would see Jesus, on the mountain teaching,
With all the list'ning people gathered round;
While birds and flow'rs and sky above are preaching
The blessedness which simple trust has found.
4 We would see Jesus, in His work of healing,
At eventide before the sun was set;
Divine and human, in His deep revealing
Of God and man in loving service met.
5 We would see Jesus; in the early morning,
Still as of old He calleth, "Follow me";
Let us arise, all meaner service scorning;
Lord, we are Thine, we give ourselves to Thee.
Amen. Topics: Christ Life on earth; Dedication of Life; Invitation to Consecration Used With Tune: HENLEY

Flung to the Heedless Winds
Author: John A. Messenger; Martin Luther Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 64 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:59 Lyrics: 1 Flung to the heedless winds
Or on the waters cast,
The martyrs' ashes, watched,
Shall gathered be at last.
And from that scattered dust,
Around us and abroad,
Shall spring a plenteous seed
Of witnesses for God.
2 The Father hath received
Their latest living breath,
And vain is Satan's boast
Of vict'ry in their death.
Still, still, tho' dead, they speak,
And, trumpet-tongued, proclaim
To many a wak'ning land
The one availing Name.
Amen.

Before the throne of God above
Author: Charitie De Chenez, 1841-1923 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 57 hymnals Scripture: Acts 7:55-56 Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea:
a great High Priest, whose name is Love,
who ever lives and pleads for me.
2 My name is graven on his hands,
my name is written on his heart;
I know that while in heaven he stands
no tongue can bid me thence depart.
3 When Satan tempts me to despair,
and tells me of the guilt within,
upward I look, and see him there
who made an end of all my sin.
4 Because the sinless Saviour died,
my sinful soul is counted free;
for God, the just, is satisfied
to look on him and pardon me.
5 Behold him there! the risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless righteousness,
the great unchangeable I AM,
the King of glory and of grace!
6 One with himself, I cannot die:
my soul is purchased by his blood;
my life is hid with Christ on high,
with Christ, my Saviour and my God. Topics: Holy Communion Used With Tune: FESTUS
