Hail! my ever blessèd Jesus

Appears in 192 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail! my ever blessèd Jesus, Only Thee I wish to sing; To my soul Thy name is precious, Thou my Prophet, Priest, and King. Oh, what mercy flows from heaven, Oh, what joy and happiness! Love I much? I’m much forgiven; I’m a miracle of grace. 2 Once with Adam’s race in ruin, Unconcern'd in sin I lay; Swift destruction still pursuing, Till my Saviour pass'd this way. Witness, all ye hosts of heaven, My Redeemer’s tenderness; Love I much? I’m much forgiven; I’m a miracle of grace. 3 Sing, ye bright angelic choir, Praise the Lamb enthroned above; Whilst astonish'd, I admire God’s free grace and boundless love. That blest moment I received Him, Fill'd my soul with joy and peace; Love I much? I’ve much forgiven; I’m a miracle of grace.

Lamb of God, we fall before Thee

Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lamb of God, we fall before Thee, Humbly trusting in Thy cross; That alone be all our glory, All things else are only dross. Thee we own a perfect Saviour, Only source of all that’s good. Ev'ry grace and ev'ry favor Comes to us through Jesus’ blood. 2 Jesus gives us true repentance, By His Spirit sent from heaven; Whispers this transporting sentence, "Son, thy sins are all forgiven." Faith He grants us to believe it, Grateful hearts His love to prize: Want we wisdom? He must give it; Hearing ears, and seeing eyes. 3 Jesus gives us pure affections, Wills to do what He requires; Makes us follow His directions, And what He commands--inspires. All our prayers, and all our praises, Rightly offer'd in His name: He that dictates them is Jesus; He that answers is the same.

He lifts His hands above; See! He shows the prints of love; Hark! His gracious lips bestow Blessings on His Church below! 5 Still for us He intercedes, His prevailing death He pleads, Near Himself prepares our place, He the first-fruits of our race. 6 Lord, though parted from our sight Far above the starry height, Grant our hearts may thither rise, Seeking Thee above the skies.

How tedious and tasteless the hours

Appears in 652 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How tedious and tasteless the hours, When Jesus no longer I see; Sweet prospects, sweet birds, and sweet flowers Have all lost their sweetness with me; The midsummer's sun shines but dim, The fields strive in vain to look gay; But when I am happy in Him, December's as pleasant as May. 2 His name yields the richest perfume, And sweeter than music His voice; His presence disperses my gloom, And makes all within me rejoice; I should, were He always thus nigh, Have nothing to wish or to fear; No mortal so happy as I, My summer would last all the year. 3 Content with beholding His face, My all to His pleasure resign'd; No changes of seasons or place Would make any change in my mind. While bless'd with the sense of His love, A palace a toy would appear; And prisons would palaces prove, If Jesus would dwell with me there.

How vain are all things here below!

Appears in 244 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How vain are all things here below! How false, and yet how fair! Each pleasure hath its poison too, And every sweet a snare. 2 The brightest things below the sky Give but a flatt'ring light; We should suspect some danger nigh Where we possess delight. 3 Our dearest joys, and nearest friends, The partners of our blood, How they divide our wavering minds, And leave but half for God! 4 Dear Saviour, let Thy beauties be My soul's eternal food; And grace command my heart away From all created good.

Vain, delusive world, adieu

Appears in 291 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Vain, delusive world, adieu, With all of creature good! Only Jesus I pursue, Who bought me with His blood: All thy pleasures I forego; I trample on thy wealth and pride; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus, crucified. 2 Other knowledge I disdain; 'Tis all but vanity: Christ, the Lamb of God, was slain,-- He tasted death for me. Me to save from endless woe The sin-atoning Victim died: Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus, crucified. 3 Him to know is life and peace, And pleasure without end; This is all my happiness, On Jesus to depend; Daily in His grace to grow, And ever in His faith abide; Only Jesus will I know, And Jesus, crucified.
