Jesus, let Thy pitying eye
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 302 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, let Thy pitying eye
Call back a wandering sheep;
False to Thee, like Peter, I
Would fain, like Peter, weep;
Let me be by grace restored,
On me be all long-suffering shown;
Turn, and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
2 Saviour, Prince, enthrone above,
Repentance to impart,
Give me, through Thy dying love,
The humble, contrite heart;
Speak the reconciling word,
And let Thy mercy melt me down;
Turn, and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
3 For Thine own compassion's sake
The gracious wonder show;
Cast my sins behind Thy back,
And wash me white as snow,
Speak my paradise restored
Redeem me by Thy grace alone;
Turn, and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
4 Look, as when Thy languid eye
Was closed, that we might live;
"Father," at the point to die
My Saviour gasped "forgive!"
Surely, with that dying word,
He turns, and looks, and cries, "'Tis done!"
O my bleeding, loving Lord,
Thou break'st my heart of stone! Topics: Contrition; The Church and the Kingdom of God Evangelism; Penitence; Repentance Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM

Celebrate Immanuel's Name
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Celebrate Immanuel’s name,
the Prince of life and peace.
God with us, our lips proclaim,
our faithful hearts confess.

Heav’n and earth in Jesus join.
Mortal with Immortal filled,
and human with divine.
2. Fullness of the deity in
Jesus’ body dwells,
Dwells in all His saints and me
when God His Son reveals.
Father, manifest Thy Son;
breathe the true incarnate Word.
In our inmost souls make
known the presence of the Lord.
3. Let the Spirit of our Head
through every member flow;
By our Lord inhabited,
we then Immanuel know.
Then He doth His name express;
God in us we truly prove,
Find with all the life of grace
and all the power of love. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM

Author: Charles Wesley; John Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Father, God, we glorify
Thy love to Adam’s seed;
Love that gave Thy Son to die,
And raised Him from the dead:
Him, for our offenses slain,
That we all might pardon find,
Thou hast brought to life again,
The Savior of mankind.
2. By Thy own right hand of power
Thou hast exalted Him,
Sent the mighty Conqueror
Thy people to redeem:
King of saints, and Prince of Peace,
Him Thou hast for sinners giv’n,
Sinners from their sins to bless,
And lift them up to Heav’n.
3. Father, God, to us impart
The gift unspeakable;
Now in every waiting heart
Thy glorious Son reveal:
Quickened with our living Lord,
Let us in Thy Spirit rise,
Rise to all Thy life restored,
And bless Thee in the skies. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM Text Sources: Hymns for Ascension, by John and Charles Wesley, 1746

Hearken to the Solemn Voice
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Hearken to the solemn voice,
the awful midnight cry;
Waiting souls, rejoice, rejoice,
and see the Bridegroom nigh;
Lo! He comes to keep His Word,
light and joy His looks impart;
Go ye forth to meet your Lord, and meet Him in your heart.
2. Ye who faint beneath the load
of sin, your heads lift up;
See your great redeeming God,
He comes, and bids you hope:
In the midnight of your grief,
Jesus doth His mourners cheer;
Lo! He brings you sure relief;
believe, and feel Him here.
3. Ye whose loins are girt, stand forth!
Whose lamps are burning bright,
Worthy, in your Savior’s worth,
to walk with Him in white:
Jesus bids your hearts be clean,
bids you all His promise prove;
Jesus comes to cast out sin,
and perfect you in love.
4. Wait we all in patient hope,
till Christ, the Judge, shall come,
We shall soon be all caught up
to meet the general doom:
In an hour to us unknown,
as a thief in deepest night,
Christ shall suddenly come down,
with all His saints in light.
5. Happy he whom Christ shall find
watching to see Him come;
Him the Judge of all mankind
shall bear triumphant home:
Who can answer to His Word?
Which of you dares meet His day?
Rise, and come to judgment!—Lord,
we rise, and come away. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742

Praise the Lord Who Reigns Above
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 124 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Praise the Lord who reigns above
and keeps His court below;
Praise the holy God of love
and all His greatness show;
Praise Him for His noble deeds;
praise Him for His matchless power;
Him from whom all good proceeds
let earth and Heaven adore.
2. Publish, spread to all around
the great Jehovah’s name,
Let the trumpet’s martial sound
the Lord of hosts proclaim:
Praise Him in the sacred dance,
harmony’s full concert raise,
Let the virgin choir advance,
and move but to His praise.
3. Celebrate th’eternal God
with harp and psaltery,
Timbrels soft and cymbals loud
in this high praise agree;
Praise with every tuneful string;
all the reach of heavenly art,
All the powers of music bring,
the music of the heart.
4. God, in whom they move and live,
let every creature sing,
Glory to their maker give,
and homage to their King.
Hallowed be Thy name beneath,
as in Heaven on earth adored;
Praise the Lord in every breath,
let all things praise the Lord. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM Text Sources: Wesleyan Collection of Psalms and Hymns (London: 1743)
Praise the Lord Who Reigns Above
When Descending from the Sky
Author: John Newton Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1. When descending from the sky
The Bridegroom shall appear;
And the solemn midnight cry,
Shall call professors near:
How the sound our hearts will damp!
How will shame o’erspread each face!
If we only have a lamp,
Without the oil of grace.
2. Foolish virgins then will wake
And seek for a supply;
But in vain the pains they take
To borrow or to buy:
Then with those they now despise,
Earnestly they’ll wish to share;
But the best, among the wise,
Will have no oil to spare.
3. Wise are they, and truly blest,
Who then shall ready be
But despair will seize the rest,
And dreadful misery:
Once, they’ll cry, we scorned to doubt,
Though in lies our trust we put;
Now our lamp of hope is out,
The door of mercy shut.
4. If they then presume to plead,
Lord open to us now;
We on earth have heard and prayed,
And with thy saints did bow:
He will answer from his throne,
Though you with My people mixed,
Yet to Me you ne’er were known,
Depart, your doom is fixed.
5. O that none who worship here
May hear that word, Depart!
Lord impress a godly fear
On each professor’s heart:
Help us, Lord, to search the camp,
Let us not ourselves beguile;
Trusting to a dying lamp
Without a stock of oil. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)
