Christ, the Life of All the Living

Author: Ernst Christopher Homburg; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: HOoS1926 #91 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ, the Life of all the living, Christ the Death of death our foe, Who, Thyself for us once giving To the darkest depths of woe, Patiently didst yield Thy breath, But to save my soul from death, Praise and glory ever be, Blessed Jesus, unto Thee. 2 Thou, O Thou, hast taken on Thee Bitter strokes, a cruel rod; Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee, 0 Thou sinless Son of God. Thus didst Thou our souls deliver From the bonds of sin forever; Praise and glory ever be, Blessed Jesus, unto thee. 3 Thou didst bear the smiting only, That it might not fall on me; Stoodest falsely charged and lonely, That I might be safe and free; Comfortless Thy soul did languish To bring comfort in our anguish; Praise and glory ever be, Blessed Jesus, unto thee. 4 Then for all that wrought our pardon, For Thy sorrows deep and sore, For Thine anguish in the garden, I will thank Thee evermore; To my latest breath I'll offer Thanks for all that Thou didst suffer, For that last last expiring sigh Praise Thee evermore on high. Amen.

Lord, Thy Death and Passion Give

Author: Johann Heermann; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: HOoS1926 #92 (1926) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thy death and passion give Strength and comfort in my need. Ev'ry hour while here I live, On Thy love my soul shall feed. Thou didst death for me endure, And I shun all thoughts impure; Thinking on Thy bitter pains, Hushed in prayer my heart remains. 2 Thy blest cross hath pow'r to heal All the wounds of sin and strife. Lost in Thee, my heart doth feel Sudden warmth and nobler life. In my saddest, darkest grief, Let Thy sweetness bring relief. Thou who camest but to save, Thou who fearest not the grave! 3 Lord, in Thee I place my trust, Thou art my Defense and Tower; Death Thou treadest in the dust, O'er my soul he hath no power. That I may have part in Thee, Help and save and comfort me; Give me of Thy grace and might, Resurrection, life and light. 4 Fount of good, within me dwell, For the peace Thy presence sheds Keeps us safe in conflict fell, Charms the pain from dying beds. Hide me safe within Thine arm, Where no foe can hurt or harm; Whoso, Lord, in Thee doth rest, He hath conquered, he is blest. Amen.

How Shall I Follow Him I Serve?

Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: HOoS1926 #94 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 How shall I follow Him I serve? How shall I copy Him I love? Nor from those blessed footsteps swerve, Which lead me to His seat above? 2 Privations, sorrows, bitter scorn, The life of toil, the mean abode, The faithless kiss, the crown of thorn,-- Are these the consecrated road? 3 'Twas thus He suffered, though a Son, Foreknowing, choosing, feeling all, Until the perfect work was done, And drunk the bitter cup of gall. 4 Lord, should my path through suffering lie, Forbid it I should e'er repine; Still let me turn to Calvary, Nor heed my griefs, remembering Thine. 5 O let me think how Thou didst leave Untasted every pure delight, To fast, to faint, to watch, to grieve, The toilsome day, the homeless night: 6 To faint, to grieve, to die for me! Thou camest not Thyself to please: And, dear as earthly comforts be, Shall I not love Thee more than these? 7 Yes, I would count them all but loss, To gain the notice of Thine eye: Flesh shrinks and trembles at the cross, But Thou canst give the victory.

Yet, upon the cross extended, Thou didst bear the pain of all. 2 Do we pass that cross unheeding, Breathing no repentant vow, Though we see Thee wounded, bleeding, See Thy thorn-encircled brow? Yet Thy sinless death has brought us Life eternal, peace, and rest; Only what Thy grace has taught us Calms the sinner's stormy breast. 3 Jesus, may our hearts be burning With more fervent love for Thee; May our eyes be ever turning To Thy cross of agony; Till in glory parted never From the blessèd Saviour's side, Graven in our hearts forever Dwell the cross, the Crucified.

Saviour, When in Dust to Thee

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: HOoS1926 #96 (1926) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Saviour, when in dust to Thee Low we bow th'adoring knee; When, repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our weeping eyes; O by all Thy pains and woe Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn litany! 2 By Thy helpless infant years, By Thy life of want and tears, By Thy days of sore distress In the savage wilderness, By the dread mysterious hour Of th'insulting tempter's power; Turn, O turn a fav'ring eye, Hear our solemn litany! 3 By Thine hour of dire despair, By Thine agony of prayer, By the cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn, By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful sacrifice, Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn litany! 4 By Thy deep expiring groan, By the sad sepulchral stone, By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God, O from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, reascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry Of our solemn litany!

There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: HOoS1926 #97 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, as vile as he, Wash all my sins away, Wash all my sins away. 3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed Church of God Be saved to sin no more, Be saved to sin no more. 4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die, And shall be till I die. 5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing Thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave, Lies silent in the grave.

'Tis Midnight, and on Olive's Brow

Author: William Bingham Tappan Hymnal: HOoS1926 #100 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 'Tis midnight, and on Olive's brow The star is dimmed that lately shown: 'Tis midnight, in the garden now, The suff'ring Saviour prays alone. 2 'Tis midnight, and from all removed, Immanuel wrestles lone with fears: E'en the disciple that He loved Heeds not his Master's grief and tears. 3 'Tis midnight, and for others' guilt, The Man of Sorrows weeps in blood; Yet He that hath in anguish knelt Is not forsaken by His God. 4 'Tis midnight, and from ether-plains Is borne the song that angels know: Unheard by mortals are the strains That sweetly soothe the Saviour's woe.
