Give Me the Wings of Faith

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1806 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Give me the wings of faith to rise Lyrics: 1. Give me the wings of faith to rise Within the veil, and see The saints above, how great their joys, How bright their glories be. 2. Once they were mourning here below, And wet their couch with tears: They wrestled hard, as we do now, With sins, and doubts, and fears. 3. I ask them whence their victory came: They, with united breath, Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb, Their triumph to His death. 4. They marked the footsteps that He trod, His zeal inspired their breast; And following their incarnate God, Possess the promised rest. 5. Our glorious Leader claims our praise For His own pattern giv’n; While the long cloud of witnesses Show the same path to Heav’n. Another arrangement, by Walter Kittredge (1834-1905), adds this refrain: Many are the friends who are waiting today, Happy on the golden strand, Many are the voices calling us away, To join their glorious band. Calling us away, calling us away, Calling to the better land, Calling us away, calling us away, Calling to the better land. Languages: English Tune Title: BINGHAM

Help, Lord, for Men of Virtue Fail

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2301 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Help, Lord, for men of virtue fail, Religion loses ground, The sons of violence prevail, And treacheries abound. 2. Their oaths and promises they break, Yet act the flatterer’s part; With fair, deceitful lips they speak, And with a double heart. 3. If we reprove some hateful lie, How is their fury stirred! Are not our lips our own? they cry; And who shall be our Lord? 4. Scoffers appear on every side, Where a vile race of men Is raised to seats of power and pride, And bears the sword in vain. 5. Lord, when iniquities abound, And blasphemy grows bold,; When faith is hardly to be found, And love is waxing cold; 6. Is not Thy chariot hastening on? Hast Thou not giv’n this sign? May we not trust and live upon A promise so divine? 7. Yes, saith the Lord, now will I rise, And make oppressors flee; I shall appear to their surprise, And set My servants free. 8. Thy Word, like silver sev’n times tried, Through ages shall endure; The men that in Thy truth confide Shall find the promise sure. Languages: English Tune Title: BINGHAM

Let Worldly Minds the World Pursue

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3678 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Let worldly minds the world pursue, It has no charms for me; Once I admired its trifles too, But grace has set me free. 2. Its pleasures now no longer please, No more content afford; Far from my heart be joys like these; Now I have seen the Lord. 3. As by the light of opening day The stars are all concealed; So earthly pleasures fade away, When Jesus is revealed. 4. Creatures no more divide my choice, I bid them all depart; His name, and love, and gracious voice, Have fixed my roving heart. 5. Now, Lord, I would be Thine alone, And wholly live to Thee; But may I hope that Thou wilt own A worthless worm, like me? 6. Yes! though of sinners I’m the worst, I cannot doubt Thy will; For if Thou hadst not loved me first I had refused Thee still. Languages: English Tune Title: BINGHAM
