Author: Frederick W. Faber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 344 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: My God, how wonderful Thou art, Thy majesty how bright, How beautiful Thy mercy-seat, In depths of burning light! How dread are Thine eternal years, O everlasting Lord; By prostrate spirits day and night Incessantly adored! How wonderful, how beautiful, The sight of Thee must be, Thine endless wisdom, boundless power And awful purity! O how I fear Thee, living God, With deepest, tenderest fears, And worship Thee with trembling hope, And penitential tears! Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord, Almighty as Thou art, For Thou hast stooped to ask of me The love of my poor heart. Amen.

Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,024 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of thee with sweetness fills the breast; but sweeter far thy face to see, and in thy presence rest. 2 No voice can sing, no heart can frame, nor can the memory find, a sweeter sound than Jesus' Name, the Savior of mankind. 3 O hope of every contrite heart, O joy of all the meek, to those who fall, how kind thou art: how good to those who seek! 4 But what to those who find? Ah, this nor tongue nor pen can show; the love of Jesus, what it is, none but who love him know. 5 Jesus, our only joy be thou, as thou our prize wilt be; in thee be all our glory now, and through eternity.

Author: Samuel Wesley Sr. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 387 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Saviour of mankind Nailed to the shameful tree! How vast the love that Him inclined To bleed and die for thee! 2 Hark, how He groans! while nature shakes, And earth's strong pillars bend! The temple's veil in sunder breaks, The solid marbles rend. 3 'Tis done; the precious ransom's paid: "Receive my soul!" He cries: See where He bows His sacred head! He bows His head and dies. 4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain, And in full glory shine. O Lamb of God! was ever pain, Was ever love like Thine?

In Thy Great Indignation, Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 First Line: In Thy great indignation, Lord, Lyrics: 1 In Thy great indignation, Lord, Do Thou rebuke me not; Nor on me lay Thy chastening hand, In Thy displeasure hot. 2 For in me fast Thine arrows stick, Thy hand doth press me sore; And in my flesh there is no health, Nor soundness any more. 3 This grief I have because Thy wrath Is forth against me gone; And in my bones there is no rest, For sin that I have done. 4 Because gone up above my head My great transgressions be; And, as a weighty burden, they Too heavy are for me. 5 My wounds are putrid and corrupt; My folly makes it so. I troubled am, and much bowed down; All day I mourning go. 6 For a disease which loathsome is So fills my loins with pain, That in my weak and weary flesh No soundness doth remain. 7 So feeble and infirm am I, And broken am so sore, That, through disquiet of my heart, I have been made to roar. 8 O Lord, all that I do desire Is still before Thy eye; And of my heart the secret groans Not hidden are from Thee. 9 My heart doth pant incessantly, My strength doth quite decay; As for my eyes, their wonted light Is from me gone away. 10 My lovers and my friends do stand At distance from my sore; And they do stand aloof who were Kinsmen and kind before. 11 Yea, they who seek my life lay snares; And they who would me wrong Have spoken mischief, and deceits Imagined all day long. 12 But as one deaf, I did not hear, I suffered all to pass; And as a dumb man I became, Whose mouth not opened was. 13 As one that hears not, in whose mouth Are no reproofs at all: For, Lord, I hope in Thee, my God Will hear me when I call. 14 Because I said, "Hear me, lest they Rejoice o’er me with pride; And o’er me magnify themselves, Because my foot doth slide." 15 For I am near to halt, my grief Is still before my eye; I will declare my sin, and grieve For my iniquity. 16 But yet my foes are full of life, My enemies are strong; And they are greatly multiplied Who hate and would me wrong. 17 And they for good who render ill, As en’mies me withstood; They are my bitter foes because I follow what is good. 18 Forsake me not, O Lord; my God, Far from me never be. O Lord, Thou my salvation art, In haste give help to me. Used With Tune: WINDSOR Text Sources: The Psalms of David, in Metre (New York: H. Connelly, 1849)

To Mock Your Reign

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: To mock your reign, O dearest Lord Lyrics: 1 To mock your reign, O dearest Lord, they made a crown of thorns, set you with taunts along that road from which no one returns. They could not know, as we do now, how glorious is that crown, that thorns would flow'r upon your brow, your sorrows heal our own. 2 In mock acclaim, O gracious Lord, they snatched a purple cloak, your passion turned, for all they cared, into a soldier's joke. They could not know, as we do now, that though we merit blame, you will your robe of mercy throw around our naked shame. 3 A sceptered reed, O patient Lord, they thrust into your hand, and acted out their grim charade to its appointed end. They could not know, as we do now, though empires rise and fall, your kingdom shall not cease to grow till love embraces all.

Dear Refuge of my weary soul

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 362 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Dear Refuge of my weary soul, On Thee, when sorrows rise, On Thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting hope relies. 2 To Thee I tell each rising grief, For Thou alone canst heal; Thy Word can bring a sweet relief For every pain I feel. 3 But oh, when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call Thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail, And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust, And still my soul would cleave to Thee, Though prostrate in the dust. 5 Thy mercy-seat is open still; Here let my soul retreat, With humble hope attend Thy will, And wait beneath Thy feet.
