At the Name of Jesus

Author: Caroline M. Noel Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 252 hymnals 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. Mighty and mysterious in the highest height, God from everlasting, very light of light: In the Father’s bosom with the spirit blest, Love, in love eternal, rest, in perfect rest. 3. 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. 4. 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. 5. 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. 6. Name Him, brothers, name Him, with love strong as death But with awe and wonder, and with bated breath! He is God the Savior, He is Christ the Lord, Ever to be worshipped, trusted and adored. 7. In your hearts enthrone Him; there let Him subdue All that is not holy, all that is not true; Crown Him as your Captain in temptation’s hour; Let His will enfold you in its light and power. 8. Brothers, this Lord Jesus shall return again, With His Father’s glory, with His angel train; For all wreaths of empire meet upon His brow, And our hearts confess Him King of glory now.

On our way rejoicing, As we homeward move, Hearken to our praises, O Thou God of love! 2 If with honest-hearted Love for God and man, Day by day Thou find us Doing what we can, Thou Who giv'st the seed-time Wilt give large increase, Crown the head with blessings, Fill the heart with peace. On our way rejoicing, As we homeward move, Hearken to our praises, O Thou God of love! 3 On our way rejoicing Gladly let us go; Conquered hath our Leader! Vanquished is our foe! Christ without, our safety; Christ within, our joy; Who, if we be faithful, Can our hope destroy? On our way rejoicing, As we homeward move, Hearken to our praises, O Thou God of love! 4 Unto God the Father Joyful songs we sing; Unto God the Saviour Thankful hearts we bring; Unto God the Spirit Bow we and adore, On our way rejoicing Now and evermore.

Author: Patrick Miller Kirkland, b. 1857 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lord, Redeemer, Once for sinners slain, Crucified in weakness, Raised in pow'r to reign, Dwelling with the Father, Endless in your days, Unto youe be glory, Honor, blessing, praise. 2 Faithful ones, communing, Toward the close of day, Desolate and weary, Met you in the way. So, when sun is setting, Come to us, and show All the truth, and in us Make our hearts to glow. 3 In the upper chamber, Where the ten, in fear, Gathered sad and troubled, There you did appear. So, O Lord, this evening, Bid our sorrow cease; Breathing on us, Saviour, Say, "I give you peace."
