Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg; Benjamin Francis Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,269 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of Thee? Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days! 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon: 'Tis midnight with my soul, till He, Bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His Name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may, When I've no guilt to wash away, No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then--nor is my boasting vain-- Till then I boast a Saviour slain! And O, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me!

Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims

Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 73 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims His various and His saving names; Oh, may they not be heard alone, But by our sure experience known. 2 Awake, our noblest powers, to bless The God of Abra'm, God of peace; Now by a dearer title known, Father and God of Christ His Son. 3 Through every age His gracious ear Is open to His servants' prayer; Nor can one humble soul complain That it hath sought its God in vain. 4 What unbelieving heart shall dare In whispers to suggest a fear, While still He owns His ancient name, The same His power, His love the same. 5 To Thee our souls in faith arise, To Thee we lift expecting eyes, And boldly through the desert tread, For God will guard, where God shall lead. Amen. Topics: Faith Assurance of; God Deliverer; God Faithfulness of; Praise To God Used With Tune: BLENDON

O happy day, that stays my choice

Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,694 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O happy day, that fixed my choice On Thee, my Saviour and my God! Well may this glowing heart rejoice, And tell its raptures all abroad. 2 O happy bond, that seals my vows To Him who merits all my love! Let cheerful anthems fill His house, While to that sacred shrine I move. 3 'Tis done, the great transaction's done; I am my Lord's, and He is mine: He drew me, and I followed on, Glad to obey the voice divine. 4 Now rest, my long-divided heart, Fixed on this blissful centre, rest; With ashes who would grudge to part, When called on angels' bread to feast! 5 High heaven, that heard the solemn vow, That vow renewed shall daily hear; Till in life's latest hour I bow, And bless in death a bond so dear.
