Not all the blood of beast

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #87 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace, Or wash away our stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away; A sacrifice of nobler name, And richer blood, than they, 3 My faith would lay her hand On that meek head of Thine, While as a penitent I stand, And here confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear When hanging on the accursed tree, And knows her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To feel the curse remove; We bless the Lamb, with cheerful voice, And trust His bleeding love.

O Master, it is good to be

Author: Dean Stanley, 1815-1881 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #88 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O Master, it is good to be High on the mountain here with Thee; Where stand revealed to mortal gaze The two great saints of other days, Who once received on Horeb's height The eternal laws of truth and right; Or caught the still small whisper, higher Then 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 The thought that breathes, and word that burns; Here, where on eagle's wings we move With him whose last, best creed is love. 3 O Master, it is good to be Entranced, enwrapt, alone with Thee; Watching the glistering 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!"

Never further than thy cross

Author: Mrs. Elizabeth Charles, 1828-1896 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #89 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Never further than Thy cross, Never higher than Thy feet; Here earth's precious things seem dross; Here earth's bitter things grow sweet. 2 Gazing thus our sin we see, Learn Thy love while gazing thus; Sin, which laid the cross on Thee, Love, which bore the cross for us. 3 Here we learn to serve and give, And, rejoicing, self deny; Here we gather love to live, Here we gather faith to die. 4 Pressing onward as we can, Still to this our hearts must tend; Where our earliest hopes began, There our last aspirings end; 5 Till amid the hosts of light, We in Thee redeemed, complete, Through Thy cross made pure and white, Cast our crowns before Thy feet.

Fierce was the wild billow

Author: Dr. J. M. Neals, 1818-1866 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #90 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Fierce was the wild billow, Dark was the night, Oars labored heavily, Foam glimmered white. Trembled the mariners; Peril was nigh. Then said the God of God, "Peace: it is I." 2 Ridge of the mountain wave, Lower thy crest; Wail of the tempest wind, Be thou at rest. Sorrow can never be, Darkness must fly, Where saith the Light of light, "Peace: it is I." 3 Jesu, Deliverer, Come thou to me; Soothe Thou my voyaging Over life's sea; Thou, when the storm of death Roars sweeping by, Whisper, O Truth of truth, "Peace: it is I."

My heart and voice I raise

Author: B. Rhodes, 1743-1815 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #91 (1917) Lyrics: 1 My heart and voice I raise, To spread Messiah's praise; Messiah's praise let all repeat; The universal Lord, By whose almighty word Creation rose in form complete. 2 A servant's form He wore, And in His body bore Our dreadful curse on Calvary; He like a victim stood, And poured His sacred blood, To set the guilty captives free. 3 But soon the Victor rose Triumphant o'er His foes, And led the vanquished host in chains; He threw their empire down, His foes compelled to own, O'er all the great Messiah reigns. 4 With mercy's mildest grace, He governs all our race In wisdom, righteousness, and love; Who to Messiah fly Shall find redemption nigh, And all His great salvation prove.

All we have to offer, All we hope to be, Body, soul, and spirit, All we yield to Thee. 2 Nearer, ever nearer, Christ, we draw to Thee; Deep in adoration Bending low the knee; Thou for our redemption Cam'st on earth to die Thou, that we might follow, Hast gone up on high. 3 Great and ever greater Are Thy mercies here, True and everlasting Are the glories there, Where no pain or sorrow, Toil, or care, is known, Where the angel-legions Circle round Thy throne. 4 Clearer still and clearer Dawns the light from heaven, In our sadness bringing News of sin forgiven; Life has lost its shadows, Pure the light within; Thou hast shed Thy radiance On a world of sin. 5 Brighter still and brighter Glows the western sun, Shedding all its gladness O'er our work that's done; Time will soon be over, Toil and sorrow past; May we, blessed Saviour, Find a rest at last. 6 Onward, ever onward, Journeying o'er the road Worn by saints before us, Journeying on to God. Leaving all behind us, May we hasten on, Backward never looking Till the prize is won. 7 Higher then and higher Bear the ransomed soul, Earthly toils forgotten, Saviour, to its goal; Where, in joys unthought of, Saints with angels sing, Never weary, raising Praises to their King.

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #94a (1917) Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears; The bleeding sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my surety stands; My name is written on His hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede, His all-redeeming love, His precious blood, to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly speak for me: "Forgive him, O forgive," they cry, "Nor let that ransomed sinner die!" 4 The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One; He cannot turn away The presence of His Son: His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. 5 My God is reconciled, His pardoning voice I hear He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear; With confidence I now draw nigh, And "Father, Abba, Father!" cry.
