Blessed Jesus, We Are Here

Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: John 3:21 Lyrics: 1 Blessed Jesus, we are here, gladly your command obeying. With this child we now draw near in response to your own saying that to you it shall be given as a child and heir of heaven. 2 Your command is clear and plain. and we would obey it duly: "You must all be born again, heart and life renewing truly, born of water and the Spirit, and my kingdom thus inherit." 3 This is why we come to you in our arms this infant bearing; Lord, to us your glory show; Let this child, your mercy sharing, in your arms be shielded ever, yours on earth and yours forever. 4 Gracious Head, your member own; Shepherd, take your lamb and feed it; Prince of Peace, make here your throne; way of life, to heaven lead it; Precious vine, let nothing sever from your side this branch forever. 5 Now into your heart we pour prayers that from our hearts proceeded. Our petitions heav'nward soar; may our fond desires be heeded! Write the name we now have given; write it in the book of heaven!

Making this poor earth his home; Come to bear our sin's sad load; Son of David, Son of God! He has come, whose name of grace Speaks deliverance to our race; Left for us his glad abode; Son of Mary, Son of God! 3 Unto us a child is born! Ne'er has earth beheld a morn, Among all the morns of time, Half so glorious in its prime. Unto us a Son is given! He has come from God's own heaven, Bringing with him from above Holy peace and holy love.

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 60 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 Lyrics: 1 What shall I do my God to love, my loving God to praise?

O may I to the utmost prove the gift unspeakable! 6 Come quickly, gracious Lord, and take possession of your own; my longing heart vouchsafe to make thy everlasting throne. Used With Tune: OXFORD NEW

It is a thing most wonderful

Author: William Walsham How (1823-1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 60 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 Lyrics: 1 It is a thing most wonderful, almost too wonderful to be, that God's own Son should come from heaven, and die to save a child like me. 2 And yet I know that it is true: he chose a poor and humble lot, and wept and toiled and mourned and died for love of those who loved him not. 3 I cannot tell how he could love a child so weak and full of sin; his love must be most wonderful, if he could die my love to win. 4 I sometimes think about the cross, and shut my eyes, and try to see the cruel nails and crown of thorns, and Jesus crucified for me. 5 But even could I see him die, I could but see a little part of that great love which, like a fire, is always burning in his heart. 6 It is most wonderful to know his love for me so free and sure; but 'tis more wonderful to see my love for him so faint and poor. 7 And yet I want to love thee, Lord; O light the flame within my heart, and I will love thee more and more, until I see thee as thou art.

Wilde, 1826-1896 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 58 hymnals Scripture: John 3:14 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, refuge of the weary, blest Redeemer, whom we love, fountain in life's desert dreary, Savior from the world above, often have your eyes, offended, gazed upon the sinner's fall; yet, upon the cross extended, you endured the pain of all. 2 Dare we pass that cross unheeding, breathing no repentant vow, as we see you wounded, bleeding, see your thorn-encircled brow? Since your sinless death has brought us life eternal, peace, and rest, only what your grace has taught us calms the sinner's deep distress. 3 Jesus, may our hearts be burning with more fervent love for you! May our eyes be ever turning to behold your cross anew, till in glory, parted never from the blessed Savior's side, graven in our hearts forever, dwell the cross, the Crucified!

Oh, for a shout of joy

Author: Young Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a shout of joy, Worthy the theme we sing! To this divine employ Our hearts and voices bring: Sound, sound through all the earth abroad, The love, the eternal love of God. 2 Unnumbered myriads stand, Of seraphs bright and fair, Or bow at thy right hand, And pay their homage there; But strive in vain with loudest chord, To sound thy wondrous love, O Lord. 3 Yet sinners saved by grace, In songs of lower key, In every age and place, Have sung the mystery-- Have told in strains of sweet accord Thy love, thy sovereign love, O Lord. 4 Though earth and hell assail, And doubts and fears arise, The weakest shall prevail, And grasp the heavenly prize, And through an endless age record Thy love, thy changeless love, O Lord.
