Faber Lyrics: 1 My God, how wonderful Thou art, Thy majesty how bright, How beautiful Thy mercy seat, in depths of burning light! 2 How dread are Thine eternal years, O everlasting LORD; by prostrate spirits, day and night, incessantly adored. 3 How wonderful, how beautiful, the sight of Thee must be, Thine endless wisdom, boundless pow'r, and awful purity. 4 O how I fear Thee, Living God, with deepest, tend'rest fears, and worship Thee with trembling hope, and penitential tears. 5 Yet I may love Thee too, O LORD, Almighty as Thou art; for Thou hast stooped to ask of me the love of my poor heart. 6 No earthly father loves like Thee, no mother e’er so mild, bears and forbears, as Thou hast done with me, Thy sinful child. 7 Father of Jesus, love's reward, what rapture will it be, prostrate before Thy throne to lie, and ever gaze on Thee!

Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle

Author: Venantius Honorius Clementianus Fortunatus, 6th cent.; John Mason Neale, 19th cent. Hymnal: HTLG2017 #165 (2017) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Person Name: Venantius Honorius Clementianus Fortunatus, 6th cent. Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle; sing the ending of the fray. Now above the cross, the trophy, sound the loud triumphant lay: tell how Christ, the world's Redeemer, as a victim won the day. 2 Tell how, when at length the fullness of th'appointed time was come, He, the Word, was born of woman, left for us His Father's home, blazed the path of true obedience, shone as light amidst the gloom. 3 Thus, with thirty years accomplished, He went forth from Nazareth, destined, dedicated, willing, did His work, and met His death; like a lamb He humbly yielded on the cross His dying breath. 4 Faithful cross, true sign of triumph, be for all the noblest tree; none in foliage, none in blossom, none in fruit your equal be; symbol of the world's redemption, for the weight that hung on thee! 5 Unto God be praise and glory: to the Father and the Son, to th'eternal Spirit honor now and evermore be done; praise and glory in the highest, while the timeless ages run.

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, 'tis heav'n of heav'ns to me; and it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: EBENEZER

First Line: My God, I love Thee, not because Lyrics: 1 My God, I love Thee; not because I hope for heav'n thereby, nor yet for fear that loving not I might forever die; but for that Thou didst all mankind upon the cross embrace; for us didst bear the nails and spear, and manifold disgrace; 2 And griefs and torments numberless, and sweat of agony; e'en death itself, and all for man, who was Thine enemy. Then why, most loving Jesus Christ, should I not love Thee well? Not for the sake of winning heav'n, nor any fear of hell; 3 Not with the hope of gaining aught, nor seeking a reward, but as Thyself hast loved me, O ever loving Lord! E'en so I love Thee, and will love, and in Thy praise will sing, solely because Thou art my God and my eternal King! Topics: Salvation Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: HTLG2017 #332 (2017) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Person Name: Johann Franck Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless Treasure, source of purest pleasure, truest Friend to me; Long my heart hath panted till it well nigh fainted, thirsting after Thee. Thine I am, O spotless Lamb, I will suffer nought to hide Thee, ask for nought beside Thee. 2 In Thine arms I rest me, foes who would oppress me cannot reach me here; though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; sin and hell in conflict fell with their heaviest storms assail me. Jesus will not fail me. 3 Satan, I defy thee; death, I need not fly thee; fear, I bid thee cease! Rage, O world, thy noises cannot drown our voices singing still of peace; for God's pow'r guards ev'ry hour; earth and all the depths adore Him, silent bow before Him. 4 Wealth, I will not heed thee; wherefore should I need thee? Jesus is my joy; honors, ye may glisten, but I will not listen, ye the soul destroy; want or loss or shame or cross ne'er to leave my Lord shall move me, since He deigns to love me. 5 Farewell, thou who choosest earth, and heaven refuses, thou wilt tempt in vain; hence, ye sins, nor blind me, get ye far behind me, come not forth again: past your hour, O pomp and power; godless life, thy bonds I sever, leave thee now for ever! 6 Hence, all thoughts sadness, for the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in; those who love the Father, though the storms may gather, still have peace within; yea, whate'er I here must bear, Thou art still my purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless Treasure!

Saints on earth your scepter claim; all in heav'n above adore You. Infinite Your vast domain; everlasting is Your reign. 2 Hark, the glad celestial hymn angel choirs above are raising; cherubim and seraphim, in unceasing chorus praising, fill the heav'ns with sweet accord: “Holy, holy, holy Lord!” 3 Lo, the apostolic train joins Your sacred name to hallow; prophets swell the glad refrain, and the white-robed martyrs follow; and from morn to set of sun, through the church the song goes on. 4 Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, three we name You, though in essence only one; undivided God, we claim You, and, adoring, bend the knee while we own the mystery.

His Be the Victor's Name

Author: Samuel Whitelock Gandy Hymnal: HTLG2017 #145 (2017) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Person Name: Samuel Whitelock Gandy Lyrics: 1 His be the Victor’s name, who fought the fight alone; triumphant saints no honor claim; His conquest was their own. 2 By weakness and defeat He won a glorious crown, trod all our foes beneath His feet by being trodden down. 3 He Satan’s pow'r laid low; made sin, He sin o’erthrew; bowed to the grave, destroyed it so, and death, by dying, slew. 4 Bless, bless the Conqu'ror slain, slain in His victory; who lived, who died, who lives again — For thee, His church, for thee!
