O Master, It Is Good to Be
Author: Arthur P. Stanley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 66 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1. O Master, it is good to be
High on the mountain here with Thee,
Where stand revealed to mortal gaze
Those glorious saints of other days,
Who once received on Horeb’s height
Th’eternal laws of truth and right,
Or caught the still small whisper, higher
Than storm, than earthquake, or than fire.
2. O Master, it is good to be
With Thee, and with Thy faithful three;
Here, where the Apostle’s heart of rock
Is nerved against temptation’s shock;
Here, where the Son of Thunder learns
The thought that breathes, and word that burns;
Here, where on eagle wings we move
With him whose last best creed is love.
3. O Master, it is good to be
Entranced, enwrapt, alone with Thee;
And watch Thy glistening raiment glow
Whiter than Hermon’s whitest snow;
The human lineaments that shine
Irradiant with a light divine;
Till we too change from grace to grace,
Gazing on that transfigured face.
4. O Master, it is good to be
Here on the holy mount with Thee;
When darkling in the depths of night,
When dazzled with excess of light,
We bow before the heavenly voice
That bids bewildered souls rejoice,
Though love wax cold, and faith be dim,
This is My Son, O hear ye Him. Used With Tune: HAYES Text Sources: Macmillan's Magazine, April 1870

With rev’rent lips and glowing heart,

Be with us now, and to the end! Topics: Calmness; Parting Hymns; Praise General; Prayer Meeting Closing; Worship; Worship Closing Used With Tune: [Now while we sing our closing psalm]

God Is Love
Author: Chas. H. Gabriel Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: Whisper'd by the ev'ning breeze Refrain First Line: Sweetest words below,—above Lyrics: 1 Whisper’d by the ev’ning breeze,
Chanted in the stately trees,
Sung by brooklet in the vale,
Shouted in the raging gale,
Hear it ringing:—“God is love!”
Gladness bringing, “God is love!”
Refrain:
Sweetest words below,—above,
“God is wisdom, God is love.”

In the busy morning light,
In the murm’rings on the shore,
In the crashing thunder’s roar,
Hear it pealing:— “God is love!”
Softly stealing, “God is love!” [Refrain]

Flow’r, and breeze, and land, and sea;

And the answer from the skies,
Tells the story:— “God is love!”

The Pure in Heart

They that stand approved of God;
They shall have in life a part,
True life here, life with God;

Christ in God their only Lord,
Him who giveth all things free,
Glad they hear his precious word.

They that love the paths of God;
They shall dwell from sin apart,
Live in love, walk with God;
Pure in heart, oh, make me now,
Jesus, Savior, thou, my Lord,
Help me while I humbly bow,
Help me follow thy pure word.

God Is Here
Author: Charlotte G. Homer Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: In the silence of the night Lyrics: 1 In the silence of the night,
In the dawn of morning light,
In the breezes soft and warm,
In the thunder of the storm
Speaks a voice that all may hear,
Ever saying:—“God is here!”
Pause and worship—Him revere!
Nature whispers:—“God is here!”
2 In the blended rainbow hue,
In the glint of morning dew;
In the roar of ocean wave,
In the newly fashioned grave;
In the burning, blinding tear,
Still repeating:—“God is here!”
Pause and worship—Him revere!
Nature whispers:—“God is here!”
3 In the quiet, restful bow’r,
In the rush of busy hour;
In the halls of wealth and pride,
In the forest wild and wide;
In the hour when death is near,
Hear it whisper:—“God is here!”
Pause and worship—Him revere!
Nature whispers:—“God is here!” Topics: God Used With Tune: [In the silence of the night]

Father of All, Whose Powerful Voice
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 39 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Father of all, whose powerful voice
Called forth this universal frame!
Whose mercies over all rejoice,
Through endless ages still the same;
Thou by Thy word upholdest all;
Thy bounteous love to all is showed;
Thou hear’st Thy every creature’s call,
And fillest every mouth with good.
2. In Heaven Thou reign’st enthroned in light,
Nature’s expanse beneath Thee spread;
Earth, air, and sea, before Thy sight
And hell’s deep gloom, are open laid:
Wisdom, and might, and love are Thine;
Prostrate before Thy face we fall,
Confess Thine attributes divine,
And hail Thee sovereign Lord of all.
3. Thee sovereign Lord let all confess,
That move in earth, or air, or sky;
Revere Thy power, Thy goodness bless,
Tremble before Thy piercing eye.
All ye, who owe to Him your birth,
In praise your every hour employ;
Jehovah reigns! be glad, O earth!
And shout, ye morning stars, for joy. Used With Tune: HAYES Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742

Holy Spirit, Come, We Pray
Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, come, we pray,
Shed from heav’n Thine inward ray;
Kindle darkness into day.
2 Come, Thou Father of the poor;
Come, Thou Source of all our store;
Light of hearts for evermore.
3 Thou, of Comforters the best;
Thou, the soul’s delightful guest,
Sweet refreshment of the breast;
4 Thou, in labour our repose,
Cooling shade when noontide glows,
Solace sweet in all our woes!
5 Light most blissful! Fire Divine!
Fill, oh, fill these hearts of Thine;
On our inmost being shine.
6 If in Thee it be not wrought,
All in men is simply nought;
Nothing pure in deed or thought.
7 Cleanse the sordid from their stain,
On the thirsty pour Thy rain,
Heal the wounded of their pain.
8 To Thy will the stubborn mould,
Melt the frozen heart and cold,
Guide the wanderer to the fold.
9 On the faithful who confide
Solely in Thyself as Guide,
Let Thy sevenfold gifts abide.
10 Grant them virtue’s full increase,
Grant them safe and sweet release,
Grant them everlasting peace.
