Alleluia, sing to Jesus!

Author: Wm. C. Dix Hymnal: HRGC1892 #368 (1894) Meter: 8.7 D Tune Title: [Alleluia! sing to Jesus] Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! sing to Jesus! His the sceptre, His the throne; Alleluia! His the triumph, His the victory alone: Hark! the songs of peaceful Sion Thunder like a mighty flood; Jesus out of every nation Hath redeemed us by His blood. 2 Alleluia! not as orphans Are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! He is near us, Faith believes, nor questions how: Though the cloud from sight received Him, When the forty days were o'er: Shall our hearts forget His promise, "I am with you evermore"? 3 Alleluia! Bread of Heaven, Thou on earth our Food, our Stay! Alleluia! here the sinful Flee to thee from day to day: Intercessor, Friend of sinners, Earth's Redeemer, plead for me, Where the songs of all the sinless Sweep across the crystal sea. 4 Alleluia! King eternal, Thee the Lord of lords we own; Alleluia! born of Mary, Earth Thy footstool, heaven Thy throne: Thou within the veil hast entered, Robed in flesh, our great High-Priest; Thou on earth both Priest and Victim In the Eucharistic feast. 5 Alleluia! sing to Jesus! His the sceptre, His the throne; Alleluia! His the triumph, His the victory alone; Hark! the songs of holy Sion Thunder like a mighty flood; Jesus out of every nation Hath redeemed us by His blood.

And kindle in their hearts the fire Of holy love and pure desire; 6 That so from angel hosts above May rise a sweeter song of love, And we, with all the blest, adore Thy Name, O God, for evermore.

And now, O Father, mindful of the love

Author: Rev. W. Bright Hymnal: HRGC1892 #228a (1894) Tune Title: [And now, O Father, mindful of the love] Lyrics: 1 And now, O Father, mindful of the love That bought us, once for all, on Calvary's tree, And having with us Him that pleads above, We here present, we here spread forth to Thee, That only offering perfect in Thine eyes, The one true, pure, immortal sacrifice. 2 Look, Father, look on His anointed face, And only look on us as found in Him; Look not on our misusings of Thy grace Our prayer so languid, and our faith so dim; For lo! between our sins and their reward, We set the Passion of Thy Son our Lord. 3 And then for those, our dearest and our best, By this prevailing presence we appeal; Oh, fold them closer to Thy mercy's breast! Oh, do Thine utmost for their souls' true weal! From tainting mischief keep them white and clear, And crown Thy gifts with strength to persevere. 4 And so we come; Oh, draw us to Thy feet, Most patient Savior, Who canst love us still! And by this Food, so awful and so sweet, Deliver us from every touch of ill: In Thine own service make us glad and free, And grant us nevermore to part with Thee. Amen. Languages: English
