I Want a Principle Within

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3166 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. I want a principle within of watchful, godly fear, A sensibility of sin, a pain to feel it near. I want the first approach to feel of pride or wrong desire, To catch the wandering of my will, and quench the kindling fire. 2. From Thee that I no more may stray, no more Thy goodness grieve, Grant me the filial awe, I pray, the tender conscience give. Quick as the apple of an eye, O God, my conscience make; Awake my soul when sin is nigh, and keep it still awake. 3. Almighty God of truth and love, to me Thy power impart; The mountain from my soul remove, the hardness from my heart. O may the least omission pain my reawakened soul, And drive me to that blood again, which makes the wounded whole. Languages: English Tune Title: GERALD

O Praise the Lord, His Deeds Make Known

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5273 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. O praise the Lord, His deeds make known, And call upon His name; Sing ye to Him, His praises sing, His wondrous works proclaim. Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore. 2. Ye children of God’s covenant, Who of His grace have heard, Forget not all His wondrous deeds And judgments of His Word. The Lord our God is God alone, All lands His judgments know; His promise He remembers still, While generations go. 3. While yet our fathers were but few, Sojourners in the land, He sware that Canaan should be theirs, And made His covenant stand. He suffered none to do them wrong In all their pilgrim way; Yea, for their sake were kings reproved And covered with dismay. 4. His stern command restrained their foes And filled them with alarm; Touch not Mine own anointed ones, Nor do My prophets harm. He wholly broke the staff of bread And called for famine sore, And He prepared His people’s way By sending one before. 5. Then Joseph, sold to slavery, With cruel chains was bound; Till his prediction came to pass, Distress and grief he found. The king released him from his bonds And made him rule the land, Subjecting chiefs and senators To his controlling hand. 6. To Egypt Israel followed then, And there grew great and strong, Until their friends became their foes And did them grievous wrong. God sent His servant Moses then, And Aaron, whom He chose; Great signs and wonders they displayed To terrify their foes. 7. In darkness they were taught to fear God’s great and holy name; On man and beast, on vine and field, His awful judgment came. He smote the first-born in the land, The chief of all their strength, Enriched His people with the spoil And brought them forth at length. 8. He led them forth in health and strength, None weak in all their band, And Egypt, filled with fear, rejoiced To see them leave the land. He spread a cloud to cover them, Most glorious and bright, And made a fiery pillar shine To give them light by night. 9. At their request He sent them quails, And bread of Heav’n bestowed; And from the rock, to quench their thirst, The living waters flowed. His sacred word to Abraham He kept, though waiting long, And brought His chosen people forth With joy and thankful song. 10. The lands and toil of wicked men He gave them to possess, That they might keep His holy laws, Jehovah praise and bless. Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: GERALD

The World Within

Author: Mary A. Lathbury Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7629 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: O wondrous world within a world Lyrics: 1. O wondrous world within a world How beautiful thou art! What high desire, what holy fire Lie glowing at thy heart! What beauty, like the silent stars, Hangs ever o’er thy brow; What youth, as old as Paradise, Springs deathless in thee now! 2. Where did we learn to love thy face— The music of thy name? A leafy door beside the shore Was opened—and we came. Our lost ideals, grown more fair, Thronged back through all thy ways; Another life—a real life— Filled all our empty days. 3. The world smiled, saying, These are they Who live among the trees; Whose thoughts rise higher than the stars And soar beyond the trees. They do not weigh their wealth with gold Or measure it with fame; They speak a language all their own They bear a hidden name. 4. So weighs the world its own true life, Nor knows it as its own, While, life of life, above all strife God waits upon His throne; He waits until the world of things And the world of thoughts shall be Blent in that perfect thing we call The new humanity. 5. What joy is thine, O world within, To bear thy banners out, And there to claim in God’s dear name The last and least redoubt! The earth is His—the heav’ns are His, He stooped to make them one When that great mystery was wrought That gave us God the Son. 6. The world without is blind to thee, Thou world of the within, Yet through the years thy saints and seers Its oracles have been. Still trust them with thy prophecies; Still through them breathe thy breath; Till honor blossoms from the dust And life spring out of death. Languages: English Tune Title: GERALD

Our Souls, By Love Together Knit

Author: W. E. Miller Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8682 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Our souls by love together knit Lyrics: 1 Our souls by love together knit, Cemented, mixed in one, One hope, one heart, one mind, one voice, ’Tis Heav’n on earth begun; Our hearts have burned while Jesus spoke, And glowed with sacred fire; He stopped and talked and fed, and blessed, And filled th’enlarged desire. 2 We’re soldiers fighting for our God, Let trembling cowards fly; We’ll stand unshaken, firm and fixed, With Christ to live and die: Let devils rage and hell assail, We’ll cut our passage through; Let foes unite and friends desert, We’ll seize the crown our due. 3 The little cloud increases still, The heav’ns are big with rain; We haste to catch the teeming shower, And all its moisture drain: A rill, a stream, a torrent flows, But pour the mighty flood; O sweep the nations, shake the earth, Till all proclaim Thee God. 4 And when Thou makest up Thy jewels And set Thy starry crown, When all Thy sparkling gems shall shine, Proclaimed by Thee Thine own; May we, a little band of love, We sinners saved by grace, From glory into glory changed, Behold Thee face to face.
