Within thy tabernacle, Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Within thy tabernacle, Lord, Who shall abide with thee? And in thy high and holy hill Who shall a dweller be? 2 The man that walketh uprightly, And worketh righteousness, And as he thinketh in his heart, So doth he truth express. 3 Who doth not slander with his tongue, Nor to his friend doth hurt; Nor yet against his neighbour doth Take up an ill report. 4 In whose eyes vile men are despised; But those the Lord that fear He honoureth; and changeth not, Though to his hurt he swear. 5 His coin puts not to usury, Nor take reward will he Against the guiltless. Who doth thus Shall never moved be. 6 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, The God whom we adore, Be glory, as it was, and is, And shall be evermore. Amen.

Arise, the kingdom is at hand

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Rist Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, the kingdom is at hand, The King is drawing nigh; Arise with joy, thou faithful band, To meet the Lord Most High! 2 Look up, ye souls weighed down with care, The Sovereign is not far; Look up, faint hearts, from your despair, Behold the Morning Star! 3 Look up, ye drooping hearts, to-day! The King is very near; O cast your griefs and fears away, For lo, your Help is here! 4 Hope on, ye broken hearts, at last! The King comes in His might; He loved us in the ages past, When we lay wrapped in night. 5 Now fear and wrath to joy give place, Now are our sorrows o'er, Since God hath made us in His grace His children evermore. 6 For this we raise a gladsome voice On high to Thee alone, And evermore with thanks rejoice Before Thy glorious throne. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Used With Tune: NUN DANKET ALL' UND BRINGET EHR

We praise and bless Thee, gracious Lord

Author: Jane Borthwick; Charles John Spitta Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We praise and bless Thee, gracious Lord, Our Saviour kind and true, For all the old things passed away, For all Thou hast made new. 2 But yet how much must be destroyed, How much renewed must be, Ere we can fully stand complete In likeness, Lord to Thee! 3 Thou, only Thou, must carry on The work thou hast begun; Of Thine own strength Thou must impart, In Thine own ways to run. 4 Ah, leave us not! from day to day Revive, restore again; Our feeble steps do Thou direct, Our enemies restrain. 5 When flesh shall fail, then strengthen Thou The spirit from above; Make us to feel Thy service sweet, And light Thy yoke of love. 6 So shall we faultless stand at last Before Thy Father's throne; The blessedness for ever ours, The glory all Thine own!

Lo, the Destroying Angel Flies

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lo, the destroying angel flies To Pharaoh’s stubborn land; The pride and flower of Egypt dies By his vindictive hand. 2. He passed the tents of Jacob o’er, Nor poured the wrath divine; He saw the blood on every door, And blessed the peaceful sign. 3. Thus the appointed Lamb must bleed, To break the Egyptian yoke; Thus Israel is from bondage freed, And ’scapes the angel’s stroke. 4. Lord, if my heart were sprinkled too With blood so rich as Thine, Justice no longer would pursue This guilty soul of mine. 5. Jesus our Passover was slain, And has at once procured Freedom from Satan’s heavy chain And God’s avenging sword. Used With Tune: GRÄFENBERG Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-9

Hail, Holy Ghost! Jehovah!

Author: Samuel Wesley, Jr. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Hail, Holy Ghost! Jehovah! Third Lyrics: 1 Hail, Holy Ghost! Jehovah! Third In order of the Three; Sprung from the Father and the Word From all eternity! 2 Thy Godhead brooding o’er th’abyss Of formless waters lay; Spoke into order all that is, And darkness into day. 3 In lowest hell, or Heaven’s height, Thy presence who can fly? Known is the Father to Thy sight, The depths of deity. 4 Thy power thro’ Jesu’s life displayed Quite from the virgin’s womb, Dying, His soul an offering made, And raised Him from the tomb. 5 God’s image, which our sins destroy, Thy grace restores below, And truth and holiness and joy From Thee their Fountain flow. 6 Hail, Holy Ghost! Jehovah! Third In order of the Three, Throned with the Father and the Word, Through all eternity. Used With Tune: GRÄFENBERG Text Sources: Poems on Several Occasions (London, E. Say, 1736)
