He That Doth In The Secret Place

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13021 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 He that doth in the secret place Of the most High reside, Under the shade of Him that is Th’ Almighty shall abide. 2 I of the Lord my God will say, He is my refuge still, He is my fortress, and my God, And in Him trust I will. 3 Assuredly He shall thee save, And give deliverance From subtle fowler’s snare, and from The noisome pestilence. 4 His feathers shall thee hide; thy trust Under His wings shall be: His faithfulness shall be a shield And buckler unto thee. 5 Thou shalt not need to be afraid For terrors of the night; Nor for the arrow that doth fly By day, while it is light; 6 Nor for the pestilence, that walks In darkness secretly; Nor for destruction, that doth waste At noon-day openly. 7 A thousand at thy side shall fall, On thy right hand shall lie Ten thousand dead; yet unto thee It shall not once come nigh. 8 Only thou with thine eyes shalt look, And a beholder be; And thou therein the just reward Of wicked men shalt see. 9 Because the Lord, who constantly My refuge is alone, Ev’n the most High, is made by thee Thy stronghold and thy home. 10 No plague shall near thy dwelling come; No ill shall thee befall: For thee to keep in all thy ways His angels charge He shall. 11 They in their hands shall bear thee up, Still waiting thee upon; Lest thou at any time should’st dash Thy foot against a stone. 12 Upon the adder thou shalt tread, And on the lion strong; Thy feet on dragons trample shall, And on the lions young. 13 "Because on Me he set His love, I’ll save and set him free; Because My great name he hath known, I will him set on high. 14 "He’ll call on Me, I’ll answer him; I will be with him still In trouble, to deliver him, And honor him I will. 15 "With length of days unto his mind I will him satisfy; And I My great salvation will Then cause his eyes to see."

What Poor Despised Company

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13030 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 What poor despised company Of travelers are these, That walk in yonder narrow way, Along that rugged maze? 2 Ah, these are of a royal line, All children of a king; Heirs of immortal crowns divine, And lo! for joy they sing. 3 Why do they then appear so mean, And why so much despised? Because of their rich robes unseen, The world is not apprised. 4 But some of them seem poor distressed, And lacking daily bread; Ah, they’re of boundless wealth possessed, With hidden manna fed. 5 But why keep they that narrow road, That rugged thorny maze? Why, that’s the way their leader trod, They love and keep His ways. 6 Why must they shun the pleasant path, That worldlings love so well? Because that is the road to death, The open road to hell. 7 What, is there then no other road, To Salem’s happy ground? Christ is the only way to God, None other can be found.

When Any Turn From Zion's Way

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13048 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: When any turn from Zion’s way Lyrics: 1 When any turn from Zion’s way, (Alas! what numbers do!) Methinks I hear my Savior say, "Wilt thou forsake Me too?" 2 Ah Lord! with such a heart as mine, Unless Thou hold me fast; I feel I must, I shall decline, And prove like them at last. 3 Yet Thou alone hast power, I know, To save a wretch like me; To whom, or whither, could I go, If I should turn from Thee? 4 Beyond a doubt I rest assured Thou art the Christ of God; Who hast eternal life secured By promise and by blood. 5 The help of men and angels joined, Could never reach my case; Nor can I hope relief to find, But in Thy boundless grace. 6 No voice but Thine can give me rest, And bid my fears depart; No love but Thine can make me blest, And satisfy my heart. 7 What anguish has that question stirred, If I will also go? Yet, Lord, relying on Thy Word, I humbly answer, "No!" Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

See, when a black o’erspreading cloud

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13074 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 See, when a black o’erspreading cloud [Originally, When a black ov­er­spread­ing cloud] Has darkened all the air; And peals of thunder roaring loud Proclaim the tempest near. 2 Then guilt and fear, the fruits of sin, The sinner oft pursue; A louder storm is heard within, And conscience thunders too. 3 The law a fiery language speaks, His danger he perceives; Like Satan, who his ruin seeks, He trembles and believes. 4 But when the sky serene appears, And thunders roll no more; He soon forgets his vows and fears, Just as he did before. 5 But whither shall the sinner flee, When nature’s mighty frame, The ponderous earth, and air, and sea, Shall all dissolve in flame? 6 Amazing day! it comes apace! The Judge is hasting down! Will sinners bear to see His face, Or stand before His frown? 7 Lord, let Thy mercy find a way To touch each stubborn heart That they may never hear Thee say, "Ye cursed ones, depart." 8 Believers, you may well rejoice! The thunder’s loudest strains Should be to you a welcome voice, That tells you, "JESUS REIGNS!" Languages: English Tune Title: BURFORD

Today Be Joy In Every Heart

Author: Frederick L. Hosmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13075 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Today be joy in every heart, For lo, the angel throng Once more above the listening earth Repeats the advent song: 2 "Peace on the earth, good-will to men!" Before us goes the star That leads us on to holier births And life diviner far. 3 Ye men of strife, forget today Your harshness and your hate; Too long ye stay the promised years For which the nations wait! 4 And ye upon the tented field, Sheathe, sheathe today the sword! By love, and not by might, shall come The kingdom of the Lord. 5 O star of human faith and hope! Thy light shall lead us on, Until it fades in morning’s glow, And heav’n on earth is won.

When Paul Was Parted From His Friends

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13100 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When Paul was parted from his friends It was a weeping day; But Jesus made them all amends, And wiped their tears away. 2 Ere long they met again, with joy, Secure no more to part, Where praises every tongue employ, And pleasure fills each heart. 3 Thus all the preachers of His grace Their children soon shall meet; Together see their Savior’s face, And worship at His feet. 4 But they who heard the Word in vain, Though oft, and plainly, warned; Will tremble, when they meet again The ministers they scorned. 5 On your own heads your blood will fall If any perish here; The preachers, who have told you all, Shall stand approved, and clear. 6 Yet, Lord, to save themselves alone, Is not their utmost view; Oh hear their prayer, Thy message own, And save their hearers, too.

When Some Kind Shepherd From His Fold

Author: John Needham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13101 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When some kind shepherd from his fold Has lost a straying sheep, Through vales, o’er hills, he anxious roves, And climbs the mountains steep. 2 But O, the joy! the transport sweet! When he the wanderer finds! Upon his arms he takes his charge, And to his shoulder binds. 3 Homeward he hastes to tell his joys, And make his bliss complete; The neighbors hear the news, and all The joyful shepherd greet. 4 Such, and much greater is the joy When but one sinner turns; When the poor wretch with broken heart, His sins and error mourns. 5 Pleased with the news, the saints below In songs their tongues employ; Beyond the skies the tidings go, And Heaven is filled with joy. 6 Well pleased the Father sees, and hears The conscious sinner weep; Jesus receives him in His arms, And owns him for His sheep. 7 Nor angels can their joys contain But kindle with new fire; "A wandering sheep’s returned," they sing And strike the sounding lyre.

So Ends The Ages' Vigil

Author: Harriet M. Kimball Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13148 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: So ends the ages’ vigil Lyrics: 1 So ends the ages’ vigil, So ends the prophets’ line; Forth from the virgin’s blessed womb Comes now the Babe divine. 2 Out of the highest Heaven Down to the wondering earth Come angel choirs descending To sing Messiah’s birth. 3 One with th’eternal Father A human name He bears: See God and man united, Veiled in the flesh He wears. 4 This is the King immortal That nations all shall seek; Ne’er ruler so majestic Never a prince so meek. 5 Clad in a humble vesture, With peace His rod of might, See kings approach His presence And tremble at the sight. 6 His innocence is ermine, And poverty His crown, Love is His throne of glory And mercy His renown. 7 He homeless lies in manger, But pity does not crave: He still rules all creation, Still mighty, strong to save. 8 Blest henceforth are the lowly Who of His meekness learn; Blest those who sow His mercy, They mercy reap in turn. 9 Blest those who family, fortune Renounce for His dear sake; They count no burden grievous That Christ gives them to take. 10 Just one cold cup of water Unto His small ones giv’n, The giver shall receive it back Filled from the springs of Heav’n. 11 Blessed the least believer More than the prophets old, Who in the lowly manger Their Savior, God behold. 12 Fall at His feet, you faithful, Bow to the King of kings! As countless hosts adore Him And fold you in their wings. 13 Now hear their sweetest carols, That bright with rapture rise; Come, join the joyful chorus That circles earth and skies!

Oh, Bright And Happy Olivet

Author: Tom L. Brown Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13198 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, bright and happy Olivet, Where once the Master trod, From whence He first went up on high— True Man and Very God. 2 Incarnate Christ in human flesh, We wait till Thou appear, With glory crowned, and saints around Caught up in joy and fear. 3 Oh, bright and happy Olivet, Once more shalt thou behold The blessed form of God’s own Son, As by those angels told. 4 And then shall David’s throne be set, And Israel too shall be Amid the happy throng that shall The true Messiah see. 5 Oh, bright and happy Olivet, How glad that day and fair, When Jew and Gentile in accord His love shall then declare. 6 For when He comes, they shall return With joy upon their head, For Israel shall accepted be As living from the dead! 7 Oh, bright and happy Olivet, The time now draweth near When Israel, God’s beloved, shall know Contrition’s sweetest tear. 8 For Christ shall come to earth again, His scattered flock to save; And on the throne of David reign, Victorious o’er the grave.

With My Whole Heart I've Sought Thy Face

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13220 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 With my whole heart I’ve sought Thy face: O let me never stray From Thy commands, O God of grace, Nor tread the sinner’s way. 2 Thy word I’ve hid within my heart To keep my conscience clean, And be an everlasting guard From every rising sin. 3 I’m a companion of the saints Who fear and love the Lord; My sorrows rise, my nature faints, When men transgress Thy Word. 4 While sinners do Thy Gospel wrong My spirit stands in awe; My soul abhors a lying tongue, But loves Thy righteous law. 5 My heart with sacred reverence hears The threatenings of Thy Word; My flesh with holy trembling fears The judgments of the Lord. 6 My God, I long, I hope, I wait, For Thy salvation still; While Thy whole law is my delight, And I obey Thy will.
