Saviour of all that saved would be, Fount of salvation full and free Is the Lord Jesus forever. Jesus, the name alone on earth For our salvation afforded. So on His cross of precious worth Is in His blood it recorded. Only in that our prayers are heard, Only in that when hearts are stirred Doth now the Spirit us comfort. Jesus, the name above the sky Wherein, when seasons are ended, Peoples shall come to God on high, And every knee shall be bended, While all the saved in sweet accord Chorus the praise of Christ, the Lord, Savior beloved by the Father.

Would Jesus Have the Sinner Die?

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Would Jesus have the sinner die? Why hangs He then on yonder tree? What means that strange expiring cry? (Sinners, He prays for you and me) Forgive them, Father, O forgive, They know not that by Me they live, They know not that by Me they live! 2. Jesus descended from above, Our loss of Eden to retrieve, Great God of universal love, If all the world through Thee may live, In us a quickening Spirit be, And witness Thou hast died for me, And witness Thou hast died for me! 3. Thou loving, all-atoning Lamb, Thee—by Thy painful agony, Thy bloody sweat, Thy grief and shame, Thy cross and passion on the tree, Thy precious death and life—I pray, Take all, take all my sins away, Take all, take all my sins away! 4. O let me kiss Thy bleeding feet, And bathe and wash them with my tears! The story of Thy love repeat In every drooping sinner’s ears, That all may hear the quickening sound, Since I, even I, have mercy found, Since I, even I, have mercy found. 5. O let Thy love my heart constrain! Thy love for every sinner free, That every fallen soul of man May taste the grace that found out me; That all mankind with me may prove Thy sovereign everlasting love, Thy sovereign everlasting love.

O God, Most Holy Are Your Ways

Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, most holy are your ways, and who like you deserves my praise? You only do such wondrous things, the whole wide world your glory sings; your outstretched arm your people saved, though sore distressed and long enslaved. 2 O God, from you the waters fled, the depths were moved with mighty dread, the swelling clouds their torrents poured, and o'er the earth the tempest roared; 'mid lightning's flash and thunder's sound great trembling shook the solid ground. 3 Your way was in the sea, O God, through mighty waters, deep and broad. None understood but God alone, to man your footsteps were unknown; but safe your people you did keep, almighty Shepherd of your sheep.

Built on a rock the church of God

Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: Built on a rock the church of God Stands though its towers be falling; Many have crumbled beneath the sod, Bells still are chiming and calling, Calling the young and old to come, But above all the souls that roam, Weary for rest everlasting. God, the most high, abides not in Temples that hands have erected. High above earthly strife and sin, He hath his mansions perfected. Yet He, whom heavens cannot contain, Chose to abide on earth with man Making their body His temple. We are God’s house of living stones, Built for the Spirit’s indwelling. He at His font and table owns Us for His glory excelling. Should only two confess His name, He would yet come and dwell with them, Granting His mercy abounding. Even the temples built on earth Unto the praise of the Father, Are like the homes of hallowed worth Whence we as children did gather. Glorious things in them are said, God there with us His covenant made, Making us heirs of His kingdom. There we behold the font at which God as His children received us; There stands the altar where His rich Mercy from hunger relieved us. There His blest word to us proclaim: Jesus is now and e’er the same, So is His way of salvation. Grant then, O Lord, where’er we roam, That, when the church bells are ringing, People in Jesus’ name may come, Praising His glory with singing. “Ye, not the world, my face shall see; I will abide with you,” said He. “My peace I leave with you ever.”
