Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Author: Richard M. Benson Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 23 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. Praise to God who reigns above,
Binding earth and Heav’n in love;
All the armies of the sky
Worship His dread sovereignty.
2. Seraphim His praises sing,
Cherubim on fourfold wing,
Thrones, dominions, princes, powers,
Marshaled might that never cowers.
3. Speeds th’archangel from His face,
Bearing messages of grace;
Angel hosts His words fulfill,
Ruling nature by His will.
4. Yet on man thy joy to wait,
All that bright celestial state,
For in man their Lord they see,
Christ, th’incarnate deity.
5. On the throne their Lord who died
Sits in manhood glorified;
Where His people faint below
Angels count it joy to go.
6. Oh, the depths of joy divine,
Thrilling through those orders nine,
When the lost are found again,
When the banished come to reign!
7. Now in faith, in hope, in love,
We will join the choirs above,
Praising, with the heav’nly host,
Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Used With Tune: XAVIER Text Sources: Hymns Ancient and Modern, 1861
Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Mercy Speaks By Jesu's Blood
Author: William Gadsby Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Mercy speaks by Jesu’s blood Lyrics: 1 Mercy speaks by Jesu’s blood,
Hear and sing, ye sons of God,
Justice satisfied indeed,
Christ hath full atonement made.
2 Jesu’s blood speaks loud and sweet,
Here all Deity can meet,
And without a jarring voice,
Welcome Zion to rejoice.
3 Should the law against her roar,
Jesu’s blood still speaks with power;
"All her debts were cast on Me,
And she must and shall go free."
4 Peace of conscience, peace with God,
We obtain through Jesu’s blood;
Jesu’s blood speaks solid rest,
We believe, and we are blest.
5 When the blood of sprinkling cries,
Clouds are banished from the skies;
Every attribute divine,
In their greatest glory shine.
6 Jesu’s blood speaks life and power,
And in every trying hour,
Trusting this almighty voice,
Zion must and shall rejoice.
7 Would the Christian walk in love,
Circumspect and godly prove,
Then be this his constant aim,
On the blood of Christ to lean.
8 Here’s his strength to will and do,
And whatever he goes through,
This should be his only plea,
"Jesu’s blood was shed for me."
9 O ye wretched sinners base,
Sunk in sin and sad disgrace;
Hear the blood of sprinkling cry,
Come, and you shall never die. Used With Tune: XAVIER Text Sources: The Nazarene's Songs (Manchester, England, 1814)
Mercy Speaks By Jesu's Blood
Jesu's Precious Name Excels
Author: Matthew Wilks Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 22 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Jesu’s precious name excels Lyrics: 1 Jesu’s precious name excels
Jordan’s streams, and Salem’s wells;
Thirsty sinners, come and draw,
Quench the flames of Sinai’s law.
2 Fearful sinners, come and try—
Draw and drink with inward joy;
Christ is fresh, and full, and free;
Sinners, come, whoe’er you be.
3 See the waters springing up,
To revive your languid hope;
Fill your vessels, as it rolls,
And refresh your weary souls.
4 Lo! the Spirit now invites!
Lo! the happy Bride unites!
Jesus calls, be not afraid,
Lo! for you the well was made!
5 Justice made it in the Lamb,
Mercy grants it thro’ His name;
Faith receives a full supply;
Those who drink it cannot die.
6 Careless sinner, let me tell,
Not a drop is found in hell;
Not a drop to ease your smart,
Not a drop to cool your heart.
7 Haste you to the Lamb of God,
Seek salvation in His blood;
In it there is boundless store,
For ten thousand thousands more.
8 Constant tributes let us bring,
For this soul refreshing spring;
Constant let our praises rise,
’Till we drink above the skies. Used With Tune: XAVIER Text Sources: A New Selection of Seven Hundred Evangelical Hymns by John Dobell (Morristown, NJ: Peter A. Johnson, 1810)
