At the Name of Jesus

Author: Caroline M. Noel Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 252 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 2 Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, every tongue confess him King of glory now; 'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who from the beginning was the mighty Word. 2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight: all the angel faces, all the hosts of light, thrones and dominations, stars upon their way, all the heavenly orders in their great array. 3 Humbled for a season, to receive a name from the lips of sinners, unto whom he came; faithfully he bore it spotless to the last, brought it back victorious when from death he passed; 4 bore it up triumphant with its human light, through all ranks of creatures, to the central height, to the throne of Godhead, to the Father's breast; filled it with the glory of that perfect rest. 5 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true. Look to him, your Savior, in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 6 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, o'er the earth to reign; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.

The Ceremonial Law points to Christ

Author: Cowper Meter: Irregular Appears in 84 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 2:17 First Line: Israel in ancient days Lyrics: 1 Israel in ancient days, Not only had a view Of Sinai in a blaze, But learn'd the gospel too: The types and figures were a glass, In which they saw the Saviour's face. 2 The Paschal sacrifice And blood-besprinkled door, Seen with enlighten'd eyes, And once apply'd with pow'r, Would teach the need of other blood, To reconcile an angry God. 3 The lamb, the dove, set forth His perfect innocence, Whose blood of matchless worth, Should be the soul's defence; For he who can for sin atone, Must have no failings of his own. 4 The scape-goat on his head The people's trespass bore, And to the desert led, Was to be seen no more: In him our surety seem'd to say, "Behold I bear your sins away." 5 Dipt in his fellow's blood, The living bird went free; The type well understood, Express'd the sinners plea; Describ'd a guilty soul enlarg'd, And by a Saviour's death discharg'd. 6 Jesus, I love to trace Throughout the sacred page; The footsteps of thy grace, The same in ev'ry age! O grant that I may faithful be To clearer light, vouchsaf'd to me. Topics: The Scriptures, Legal, Prophetic, and Evangelical, collectively testify of the Savior

He that eateth ever liveth, for the Bread of Life is he. 3 Fill thy lips to overflowing with sweet praise, his mercy showing, who this heav'nly table spread: on this day so glad and holy, to each longing spirit lowly giveth he the living Bread. 4 Here the King hath spread his table, whereon eyes of faith are able Christ our Passover to trace: shadows of the law are going, light and life and truth in flowing, night to day is giving place. 5 O Good Shepherd, Bread life giving, us, thy grace and life receiving, feed and shelter evermore; thou on earth our weakness guiding, we in heav'n with thee abiding with all saints will thee adore.
