In love still faithful to the end
Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In love still faithful to the end,
The Lord approved Himself our Friend,
And granted in His last bequest,
That which through faith gives peace and rest.
2 The night in which He was betrayed,
He blessed the bread and cup, and said,
Eat, drink, and named the given good:
'This is My Body and My Blood.'
3 Israel's Paschal-feast had long
Kept waiting hope in Israel strong,
The Lamb of God now gave, instead,
Himself as heavenly drink and bread.
4 Keep ye this feast confessing Me,
Whose death alone could make you free,
Your souls and bodies, dearly bought,
Yield not to sin: forget Me not!
5 O may we ne'er unworthy prove
Of Jesus' all-enduring love!
Nor doubt the Master's work and Word,
And thus reject Him as the Lord.
6 His body, once as ransom given,
Is proffered her as pledge of heaven;
His blood, shed for us on the tree,
Here cleanses from iniquity.
7 Lord help our faith to grasp the Word,
That we in grace may near Thy board;
And here discern what Thou dost give,
Partake of life and ever live! Topics: The Catechism Holy Communion Used With Tune: HARMONY GROVE

In vain would boasting reason find
A holy state is wedded life
Author: Rev. Emanuel Cronenwett, D. D. Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A holy state is wedded life
And blest, where God joins man and wife:
A type of Jesus and His Bride,
Beloved and honored at His side.
2 Where manly worth and gentle grace
In godliness keep step apace,
There wedded love grows never stale,
Nor heaven's blessings ever fail.
3 Where by the Word the Lord is Guest,
And all through faith and prayer is blest,
There with God's grace will all be filled,
And God Himself that house will build.
4 The skillful hand and stronger arm,
Still plied with zeal and ardor warm,
With watchful eye and frugal care,
Full soon a competence prepare.
5 This chaste estate of Paradise,
Is left to man below the skies;
Prolific harbinger of good,
Perennial fount of brotherhood:
6 From this all stations emanate,
The Home the Church, and Powers of State;
Blest nursery of virtuous worth,
Be thou held sacred still on earth! Topics: The Catechism The Christian Household Used With Tune: HARMONY GROVE
A holy state is wedded life
Before the heavens were spread abroad
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 42 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Before the heavens were spread abroad,
From everlasting was the Word;
With God he was, the Word was God!
And must divinely be adored.
2 Ere sin was born, or Satan fell,
He led the host of morning stars;
His generation who can tell,
Or count the number of his years?
3 But lo! he leaves those heavenly forms;
The Word descends and dwells in clay,
That he may converse hold with worms,
Dressed in such feeble flesh as they.
4 The angels leave their high abode,
To learn new mysteries here, and tell
The love of our descending God,
The glories of Immanuel. Topics: Christ First Advent Used With Tune: HARMONY GROVE

When Israel thro' the desert passed
Author: Benjamin Beddome Appears in 92 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When Israel thro' the desert passed,
A fiery pillar went before,
To guide them thro' the dreary waste,
And lessen the fatigues they bore.
2 Such is Thy glorious Word, O God!
'Tis for our light and guidance giv'n;
It sheds its lustre all abroad
And points the path to bliss and heav'n.
3 It fills the soul with sweet delight,
And quickens its inactive powers;
It sets our wand'ring footsteps right,
Displays Thy love, and kindles ours.
4 Its promises rejoice our hearts,
Its doctrines are divinely true;
While highest wisdom it imparts,
It comforts and instructs us too.
5 Ye favored lands that have this word,
Ye saints who feel its saving power,
Unite your tongues to praise the Lord
And His redeeming grace adore! Topics: The Catechism The Word; Sixth Sunday after Epiphany Used With Tune: HARMONY GROVE
