Tell Out, My Soul
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 60 hymnals Matching Instances: 43 First Line: Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord!
Unnumbered blessings give my spirit voice;
tender to me the promise of God's word;
in God my Savior shall my heart rejoice.
2 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of God's name!
Make known God's might, who wondrous deeds has done;
God's mercy sure, from age to age the same;
God's holy name, the Lord, the mighty One.
3 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of God's might!
Powers and dominions lay their glory by;
proud hearts and stubborn wills are put to flight,
the hungry fed, the humble lifted high.
4 Tell out, my soul, the glories of God's word!
Firm is the promise and God's mercy sure.
Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord
to children’s children and forevermore!

Tell Out, My Soul
'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them to the Lord
Author: H. M. Butler (1833-1918) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Matching Instances: 17 Lyrics: 1 'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them to the Lord,
and give to God our thanks with one accord;
it is our joy and duty, all our days
to lift our hearts in grateful thanks and praise.
2 Above the level of the former years,
the mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears,
the mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay —
O Lord of light, lift all our hearts today!
3 Above the swamps of subterfuge and shame,
the deeds, the thoughts, that honour may not name,
the halting tongue that dares not tell the whole —
O Lord of truth, lift every Christian soul!
4 Above the storms that darken human life —
pride, jealousy and envy, rage and strife;
where cold mistrust holds friend and friend apart —
O Lord of love, lift every Christian heart!
5 Then, with the trumpet call as Christ appears,
'Lift up your hearts!' rings, pealing in our ears:
still shall our hearts respond with full accord —
'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!'

Lift up your hearts! rings pealing in our ears,
Still shall those hearts respond, with full accord

Draw Nigh to Thy Jerusalem

Ride on in triumph; Lord, behold we lay
Our passions, lusts, and proud wills in Thy way!

With longing expectation seem to wait
The consecration of Thy beauteous feet,
And silently Thy promised advent greet!

Thou hast a temple, too, as Zion dear;
O enter in, dear Lord, unbar the door;
And in that temple dwell forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: WOODLANDS

We lift them, Lord, to Thee" in The Hymnal Butler, Henry Montagu, D.D., was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, and graduated B.A. as Senior Classic in 1855, and became a Fellow of his college in 1855. Taking Holy Orders in 1859, he became Head Master of Harrow School in 1859. This position he held until 1885, when he was preferred to the Deanery of Gloucester. He held the deanery for a short time only, and became Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, on the death of Dr. W. H. Thompson in 1886. Dr. Butler has also held the important appointments of Hon. Chaplain to the Queen; Examining Chaplain to Archbishops Tait and Benson; Select Preacher at Oxford, 1882; and Preb. of Holborn in St. Paul's Cathedral. Dr. Butler edited the 3rd edition of Hymns for the Chapel of Harrow School, 1865, and the 4th edition, 1881. To the Harrow Hymn Book Dr. Butler contributed:—
1. Art thou the Healer that should come. St. John Baptist.

4. Lovest thou Me ? the risen Saviour cried. St. Peter.

Nos. 3, 5, 6 and 8 are also in Hymns for the Use of Sherborne School, 1888, Nos. 5 and 6 being much altered. Dr. Butler's hymns are very lyrical and spirited and are admirably suited to their purpose.
