On Thy Church, O Power Divine

Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10465 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 On Thy church, O Power Divine, Cause Thy glorious face to shine; Till the nations from afar Hail her as their guiding star; Till her sons from zone to zone Make Thy great salvation known. 2 Then shall God, with lavish hand, Scatter blessings o’er the land; Earth shall yield her rich increase, Every breeze shall whisper peace, And the world’s remotest bound With the voice of praise resound.

Christian, Wouldst Thou Boast Aright?

Author: Herbert Kynaston Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10786 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Christian, wouldst thou boast aright Lyrics: 1 Christian, wouldst thou boast aright, Deck thy brows with living light? Twined above that altar’s horns, Contemplate the crown of thorns: Him, the rather, love the more Who for thee that thorn-crown wore. 2 This the King of Glory bound All His bleeding forehead round; With this helmet on His head Smote the foe of quick and dead; Crowned with this triumphant wreath Plucked the thorny sting from death. 3 This the crest the fight to stem, Pontiff’s only diadem, Only crown on earth to win, In the battlefield of sin, Changed, the while that head they hold, Crown of thorns to crowns of gold. 4 All those thorn-points, sharp and gory, Touched by Him are rays of glory, In His Passion’s crucifying Scorn no more, but praise undying, Twining roses for His tomb Of an amaranthine bloom. 5 Thorny ground with sweat of brow Mingling in that labor now, While the second Adam toils, All the earth of curse despoils; Thorns, fit only for the burning, To a wreath of radiance turning. 6 Only good, and only grand, Jesus, strength of those that stand, Only might of them that win, Pluck from life the sting of sin; From our work with briers strown Wreathe us an eternal crown!

Let Us Go To Bethlehem

Author: Mrs. B. L. Corbin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10970 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Let us go to Bethlehem; There the King of Glory lies! He has left His diadem, And His throne beyond the skies! He, the Lord of endless years, Now a feeble babe appears. 2 Let us go to Bethlehem: God descends with men to dwell! And He comes not to condemn, But to save from sin and hell: Oh, what rich and boundless grace, To our lost and guilty race! 3 Let us go to Bethlehem: Eastern magi worship there; Let us strive to rival them, With the incense of our prayer; And our hearts, as offerings bring, To the glorious new-born King.

Thou Didst Think Of Me

Author: Salathial C. Kirk Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10971 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: When Thou didst with pitying eye Lyrics: 1 When Thou didst with pitying eye Leave Thy Father’s throne on high— Leave a heavenly diadem For a crib in Bethlehem, Jesus, Thou didst think of me; Do I, do I think of Thee? 2 Blessing, helping everyone, Yet rejected by Thine own; Buffeted and spit upon, O, Thou blessèd Holy One, This, because Thou thought of me! Do I, do I think of Thee? 3 Praying in Gethsemane; Agonizing on the tree; When, with breaking heart, Thou cried "It is finished," bowed and died, Jesus, Thou didst think of me! Do I, do I think of Thee? 4 On His hands my name I see: In the grave He thinks of me, Vain, oh Calvary, Thy doom! Jesus rises from the tomb, Evermore to think of me; Jesus, I will think of Thee.

For The Tempted, Lord, We Pray

Author: Ellen M. H. Gates Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11210 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 For the tempted, Lord, we pray; For the souls that go astray; Weak and weary, tempest tossed, Stars all hid, and compass lost; Sailors on the dangerous seas— God of love, we pray for these. 2 For the tempted, Lord, we pray; Thou didst make them, Thine are they; When alluring forms are nigh, When a thousand voices cry, Loud and clear above them all, Let them hear Thy tender call. 3 For the tempted, Lord, we pray; For the souls that go astray, Beaten back by storm and sleet, Scorned by all they chance to meet; On them let Thy mercy shine, Still remember they are Thine. 4 For the tempted, Lord, we pray; Dust and ashes—such are they? Hear them while they make their moan, Thou canst save and Thou alone; See, their feet are on the sands; Christ of Calvary, hold their hands. Languages: English Tune Title: MORELOS

The Ten Virgins

Author: William Dickinson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11228 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Ere that solemn hour of doom Lyrics: 1 Ere that solemn hour of doom, When the Son of man shall come, Bidding quick and bidding dead Rise to meet their risen Head, Church of Jesus, hear the Word Of thine own eternal Lord. 2 Virgins ten with joyous feet Went the Bridegroom forth to meet; Wise with heavenly wisdom, five Kept with oil their lamps alive; Five with earth-born folly dim Scorned with oil their lamps to trim. 3 While the Bridegroom yet delayed, Slumber bowed each virgin head; Sudden rose the midnight cry— Lo, the Bridegroom draweth nigh! Leapt to life that virgin train, Trimmed their dying lamps amain. 4 Vainly now for oil ye cry, Foolish virgins, hence, and buy; Fast thy speed—when lo! the door Closes on them evermore: Stern the voice which stuns each heart, "Hence, I know you not, depart." 5 Church of Jesus, rise and pray, Dark that hour, and nigh that day; Woe, ye hypocrites, to you, Trim your saints, your lamps anew; For the Bridegroom watch and wait, Jesus Christ is at the gate.

Lamb Of God, Who Bear'st Away

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11475 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Lamb of God, who bear’st away Lyrics: 1 Lamb of God, who bear’st away All the sins of all mankind, Bow a nation to Thy sway While we may acceptance find; Let us thankfully embrace The last offers of Thy grace. 2 Thou Thy messengers hast sent Joyful tidings to proclaim, Willing we should all repent, Know salvation in Thy name, Feel our sins by grace forgiven, Find in Thee the way to Heav’n. 3 Jesu, roll away the stone, Good Physician, show Thine art; Make Thine healing virtue known, Break the unbelieving heart, Soften the obdurate crowd, Melt the rebels by Thy blood. 4 Let Thy dying love constrain Those that disregard Thy frown; Sink the mountain to a plain, Bring the pride of sinners down; By Thy bloody cross subdue, Tell them, "I have died for you!" 5 Or if yet they will not turn In their acceptable day, Will not look on Thee and mourn, Will not cast their sins away, Them at last by judgments shake, By Thy thunder’s voice awake. 6 Force our hardened souls to fear, Visit with affliction’s rod, Let us have our chastening here, Fall into the hands of God ; Scourge, but make not a full end, Punish us, but, Lord, amend. 7 Let th’effect of Jacob’s pain Be to purge his sin away, Let the stock take root again, Flourish in a Gospel day, Forth in gracious blossoms shoot, Fill the Earth with golden fruit. 8 If the ruin be decreed, Turn it to Thy people’s good, Still preserve the holy seed, Arm us with Thy sprinkled blood, Till the utmost grace we prove, Perfect in all-patient love.

Chosen Not For Good In Me

Author: Robert M. McCheyne Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11705 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Chosen not for good in me, Waked from coming wrath to flee, Hidden in the Savior’s side, By the Spirit sanctified— Teach me, Lord, on earth to show By my love, how much I owe. 2 Oft I walk beneath the cloud, Dark as midnight’s gloomy shroud: But, when fear is at the height, Jesus comes, and all is light; Blessèd Jesus! bid me show Doubting saints how much I owe. 3 Oft the nights of sorrow reign— Weeping, sickness, sighing, pain; But a night Thine anger burns— Morning comes, and joy returns: God of comforts! bid me show To Thy poor how much I owe. 4 When in flowery paths I tread, Oft by sin I’m captive led; Oft I fall, but still arise— Jesus comes—the tempter flies; Blessèd Jesus! bid me show Weary sinners all I owe.
