The Year Is Gone, Beyond Recall

Author: Francis Pott, 1832-1909 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7778 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. The year is gone, beyond recall, With all its hopes and fears, With all its bright and gladdening smiles, With all its mourners’ tears. 2. Thy thankful people praise Thee, Lord, For countless gifts received; And pray for grace to keep the faith Which saints of old believed. 3. To Thee we come, O gracious Lord, The newborn year to bless; Defend our land from pestilence, Give peace and plenteousness. 4. Forgive this nation’s many sins, The growth of vice restrain; And help us all with sin to strive, And crowns of life to gain. 5. From evil deeds that stain the past We now desire to flee; And pray that future years may all Be spent, good Lord, for Thee. 6. O Father, let Thy watchful eye Still look on us in love, That we may praise Thee, year by year, With angel hosts above. 7. All glory to the Father be, All glory to the Son, All glory, Holy Ghost, to Thee, While endless ages run. Languages: English Tune Title: TALLIS' ORDINAL

Behold! The Ambassador Divine

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9224 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Behold! the Ambassador divine, Descending from above, To publish to mankind the law Of everlasting love. 2 On Him, in rich effusion poured, The heav’nly dew descends; And truth divine He shall reveal To earth’s remotest ends. 3 No trumpet sound, at His approach, Shall strike the wondering ears; But still and gentle breathe the voice In which the God appears. 4 By His kind hand the shaken reed Shall raise its falling frame; The dying embers shall revive, And kindle to a flame. 5 The onward progress of His zeal Shall never know decline, Till foreign lands and distant isles Receive the law divine. 6 He who spread forth the arch of heav’n, And bade the planets roll, Who laid the basis of the earth, And formed the human soul— 7 Thus saith the Lord, “Thee have I sent, A prophet from the sky, Wide o’er the nations to proclaim The message from on high. 8 “Before Thy face the shades of death Shall take to sudden flight; The people who in darkness dwell Shall hail a glorious light; 9 “The gates of brass shall ’sunder burst, The iron fetters fall; The promised jubilee of Heav’n Appointed rise o’er all. 10 “And lo! presaging Thy approach, The heathen temple shake, And trembling in forsaken fanes, The fabled idols quake. 11 I am Jehovah: I am One: My name shall now be known; No idol shall usurp My praise, Nor mount into My throne. 12 Lo, former scenes, predicted once, Conspicuous rise to view; And future scenes, predicted now, Shall be accomplished, too. 13 Now sing a new song to the Lord! Let earth His praise resound; Ye who upon the ocean dwell, And fill the isles around. 14 O city of the Lord! begin The universal song; And let the scattered villages The joyful notes prolong. 15 Let Kedar’s wilderness afar Lift up the lonely voice; And let the tenants of the rock With accent rude rejoice. 16 O from the streams of distant lands Unto Jehovah sing! And joyful from the mountain tops Shout to the Lord the King! 17 Let all combined with one accord Jehovah’s glories raise, Till in remotest bounds of earth The nations sound His praise.

Come, Mighty Spirit

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11260 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Come, mighty Spirit, penetrate Lyrics: 1 Come, mighty Spirit, penetrate This heart and soul of mine; And my whole being, with Thy grace, Pervade, O Life divine. 2 As this clear air surrounds the earth, Thy grace around me roll; As the fresh light pervades the air, So pierce and fill my soul. 3 As, from these clouds, drops down in love The precious summer rain, So, from Thyself, pour down the flood That freshens all again. 4 As these fair flowers exhale their scent In gladness at our feet, So from Thyself let fragrance breathe, More heav’nly and more sweet. 5 Thus life within our lifeless hearts Shall make its glad abode; And we shall shine in beauteous light, Filled with the light of God.

Ye Wretched, Hungry, Starving Poor

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13254 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Ye wretched, hungry, starving poor, Behold a royal feast! Where mercy spreads her bounteous store For every humble guest. 2 See, Jesus stands with open arms; He calls, He bids you come: Guilt holds you back, and fear alarms; But see, there yet is room. 3 Room in the Savior’s bleeding heart; There love and pity meet; Nor will He bid the soul depart That trembles at His feet. 4 In Him, the Father reconciled Invites your souls to come; The rebel shall be called a child, And kindly welcomed home. 5 O come, and with His children taste The blessings of His love; While hope attends the sweet repast Of nobler joys above. 6 There, with united heart and voice, Before th’eternal throne, Ten thousand, thousand souls rejoice, In ecstasies unknown. 7 And yet ten thousand, thousand more, Are welcome still to come; Ye longing souls, the grace adore, Approach, there yet is room.
