Not so in haste, my heart
Since Jesus is my Friend
Author: Paul Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 115 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Since Jesus is my Friend,
And I to Him belong,
It matters not what foes intend,
However fierce and strong.
2 I rest upon the ground
Of Jesus and His Blood,
For 'tis through Him that I have found
The true eternal Good.
3 His Spirit in me dwells,
O'er all my mind He reigns,
All care and sadness He dispels,
And soothes away all pains.
4 He whispers in my breast
Sweet words of holy cheer,
How he who seeks in God his rest
Shall ever find Him near;
5 How God hath built above
A city fair and new,
Where eye and heart shall see and prove
What faith has counted true.
6 My heart for gladness springs,
It cannot more be sad;
For very joy it laughs and sings,
Sees naught but sunshine glad.
7 The sun that lights mine eyes
Is Christ the Lord I love;
I sing for joy of that which lies
Stored up for me above.
Amen.

Lift Up The Advent Strain
Author: Charles Coffin; John Chandler Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: Lift up the Advent strain! Lyrics: 1 Lift up the Advent strain!
Behold, the Lord is nigh!
Greet His approach, ye saints, again,
With hymns of holy joy.
2 The everlasting Son
Incarnate deigns to be;
Our God the form of slave puts on
A race of slaves to free.
3 Daughter of Sion, rise
To meet thy lowly king,
Nor let the faithless heart despise
The peace He comes to bring.
4 As judge in clouds of light,
He soon shall come again,
And all His scattered saints unite
With Him in Heav’n to reign.
5 Before that dreadful day
May all our sins be gone;
The old man all be put away,
The new man all put on.
6 Jesu, all praise to Thee,
Our joy and endless rest;
We pray Thee here our guide to be,
Our crown amid the blest. Used With Tune: DONCASTER Text Sources: Paris Breviary, 1736; Tr.: Hymns of the Primitive Church, 1837

I love Thy Zion Lord!
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I love Thy Zion Lord!
The house of Thine abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy Church, O God!
Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye,
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall;
For her my prayers ascend;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise.
5 Jesus, Thou Friend divine,
Our Saviour and our King,
Thy hand from every snare and foe
Shall great deliverance bring.
6 Sure as Thy truth shall last,
To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,
And brighter bliss of heaven. Topics: Church; Church Glorious; Love to the Church Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM

Within the Father's House
Author: James Russell Woodford Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 41 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Within the Father's house
The Son hath found His home;
And to His temple suddenly
The Lord of Life hath come.
2 Men wise in Sacred Writ
Gaze on the wondrous Child,
And marvel at His gracious words
Of wisdom undefiled.
3 Yet not to them is given
The mighty truth to know,
To lift the earthly veil which hides
Incarnate God below.
4 The secret of the Lord
Escapes each human eye,
And faithful pondering hearts await
The full Epiphany.
5 Lord, visit Thou our souls,
And teach us by Thy grace
Each dim revealing of Thyself
With loving awe to trace;
6 Till from our darkened sight
The cloud shall pass away,
And on the cleansèd soul shall burst
The everlasting day;
7 Till we behold Thy face
And know, as we are known,
Thee, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Co-equal Three in One.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Epiphany; Epiphany, First Sunday; Spiritual Blindness; Christ Longing for; Names and Office of Christ Lord of life Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM
