Nothing, either great or small— Nothing, sinner, no; Jesus died and paid it all, Long, long ago. Refrain It is finished! yes, indeed, Finished, ev’ry jot; Sinner, this is all you need, Tell me, is it not? [Refrain] 2. When He, from His lofty throne, Stooped to do and die, Ev’rything was fully done; Hearken to His cry! [Refrain] 3. Weary, working, burdened one, Wherefore toil you so? Cease your doing; all was done Long, long ago. [Refrain] 4. Till to Jesus’ work you cling By a simple faith, Doing is a deadly thing— Doing ends in death. [Refrain] 5. Cast your deadly doing down— Down at Jesus’ feet; Stand in Him, in Him alone, Gloriously complete.

Father, Let Me Dedicate

Author: Lawrence Tuttiett Meter: 7.5.7.5 D Appears in 80 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, let me dedicate, All this year to Thee, In whatever worldly state Thou wilt have me be. Not from sorrow, pain or care, Freedom dare I claim; This alone shall be my prayer: Glorify Thy name. 2 Can a child presume to choose Where or how to live? Can a Father’s love refuse All the best to give? More Thou givest ev'ry day Than the best can claim Nor withholdest aught that may Glorify Thy name. 3 If in mercy Thou wilt spare Joys that yet are mine; If on life, serene and fair, Brighter rays may shine. Let my glad heart while it sings, Thee in all proclaim And, whate’er the future brings, Glorify Thy name. 4 If Thou callest to the cross, And its shadow come, Turning all my gain to loss, Shrouding heart and home. Let me think how Thy dear Son To His glory came And in deepest woe pray on: "Glorify Thy name." Amen. Topics: The Church Year New Year Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9 Used With Tune: GLORIFICATION

Onward Speed Thy Conquering Flight

Author: Samuel F. Smith Meter: 7.5.7.5 D Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Onward speed thy conquering flight; Angel, onward speed; Cast abroad thy radiant light, Bid the shades recede; Tread the idols in the dust, Heathen fanes destroy, Spread the Gospel’s holy trust, Spread the Gospel’s joy. 2 Onward speed thy conquering flight; Angel, onward haste; Quickly on each mountain’s height Be thy standard placed; Let thy blissful tidings float Far o’er vale and hill, Till the sweetly echoing note Every bosom thrill. 3 Onward speed thy conquering flight; Angel, onward fly; Long has been the reign of night; Bring the morning nigh: ’Tis to thee the heathen lift Their imploring wail; Bear them Heaven’s holy gift, Ere their courage fail. 4 Onward speed thy conquering flight; Angel, onward speed; Morning bursts upon our sight— ’Tis the time decreed: Jesus now His kingdom takes, Thrones and empires fall, And the joyous song awakes, "God is all in all."
