Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone

Author: Thomas Shepherd Hymnal: Sing the Faith #2112 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Must Jesus bear the cross alone, and all the world go free? No, there's a cross for everyone, and there's a cross for me. 2 How happy are the saints above, who once went sorrowing here; But now they taste unmingled love, and joy without a tear. 3 The consecrated cross I'll bear till death shall set me free; And then go home my crown to wear, for there's a crown for me.

The Son Forsook the Father's Home

Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6002 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The Son forsook the Father’s home For mercy to lost man, And did not scorn the virgin’s womb To bear the sinner’s ban. 2. Meekly the maiden pure believed The great archangel’s word, And by the Holy Ghost conceived The Savior Christ the Lord. 3. The Word made flesh creation sees, Its mighty God in man: Great mystery of mysteries Since ever time began! 4. That we might gain a second birth The Holy Son was giv’n: ’Twas God Himself came down to earth To win us back to Heav’n. 5. Lord! we believe with love and praise This wondrous truth of Thee: Thereby in all our troublous days How strong henceforth are we! 6. So near art Thou, so strong are we, For now, if we are Thine, Our brother in humanity, Thou makest us divine! 7. We see with peace in times of fear Serene Thy human form Thy human voice with joy we hear, Sweet-toned above the storm. 8. So dread we not the deathly strife, Knowing that Thou hast died: It can but bear us into life, Since nearer to Thy side! Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

When in the Night I Meditate

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7537 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. When in the night I meditate, On mercies multiplied, My grateful heart inspires my tongue To bless the Lord, my guide. 2. Forever in my thought the Lord Before my face shall stand, Secure, unmoved, I shall remain, With Him at my right hand. 3. My inmost being thrills with joy And gladness fills my breast; Because on Him my trust is stayed, My flesh in hope shall rest. 4. I know that I shall not be left Forgotten in the grave, And from corruption, Thou, O Lord, Thy Holy One wilt save. 5. The path of life Thou showest me; Of joy a boundless store Is ever found at Thy right hand, And pleasures evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

The Wonders of Redeeming Love

Author: Roswell F. Cottrell, 1814-1892 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7617 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The wonders of redeeming love Our highest thoughts exceed; The Son of God comes from above For sinful man to bleed. 2. He gives Himself, His life, His all, A sinless sacrifice, For man He drains the cup of gall, For man the Victim dies. 3. And now before His Father’s face His precious blood He pleads; For those who seek the throne of grace, His love still intercedes. 4. He knows the frailties of our frame, For He has borne our grief; Our great high priest once felt the same, And He can send relief. 5. His love will not be satisfied, Till He in glory sees The faithful ones for whom He died From sin forever free. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND

While Sinners Utter Boasting Words

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8169 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 While sinners utter boasting words, And glory in their shame; The Lord, well pleased, an ear affords To those who fear His name. 2 They often meet to seek His face, And what they do or say, Is noted in His book of grace, Against another day. 3 For they, by faith, a day descry, A joyfully expect, When He, descending from the sky, His jewels will collect. 4 Unnoticed now, because unknown, A poor and suffering few; He comes to claim them for His own, And bring them forth to view. 5 With transport then, their Savior’s care And favor they shall prove; As tender parents guard and spare The children of their love. 6 Assembled worlds will then discern The saints alone are blest; When wrath shall like an oven burn, And vengeance strike the rest.

How Hast Thou, Lord, From Year To Year

Author: Thomas Gibbons, 1720-1785 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8873 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How hast Thou, Lord, from year to year, Our land with plenty crowned! And generous fruit and golden grain Have spread their riches round. 2 But we Thy mercies have abused To more abounding crimes; What heights, what daring heights in sin Disgrace and mark our times! 3 Equal, though awful, is the doom, That fierce descending rain Should into inundations swell, And crush the rising grain! 4 How just, that in the autumn’s reign, When we had hoped to reap, Our fields of sorrow and despair Should lie a hideous heap! 5 But Lord, have mercy on our land, Those floods of vengeance stay: Dispel these glooms, and let the sun Shine in unclouded day! 6 To Thee alone we look for help; None else of dew or rain Can give the world the smallest drop Or smallest drop restrain.

Sweet Is The Light, What'er It Be

Author: Thomas Davis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9120 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Sweet is the light, whate’er it be Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the light, whate’er it be, That leads us to the Lord; And sure are they, who seek His face, To find their great reward. 2 A star once led a chosen few To gaze with raptured heart Upon the infant Savior’s form, And costliest gifts impart. 3 More blest are we, although not led To Him we worship thus: The star is gone; the risen Sun Reveals Himself to us. 4 O may His beams yet dearer grow, Till ours be that bright crown Received where He for ever shines, A Sun that goes not down!

No Time

Author: Richard W. Adams Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9489 First Line: With God’s Shekinah glory filled Lyrics: 1 With God’s Shekinah glory filled, Heav’n needs no sun or moon; As dawn and sunset merge to shine In bright, unending noon. 2 No spinning spheres the seasons mark, No ebb of moon-pulled tide, No precious moment to be lost, No time to kill or bide. 3 No evening when the flowers close, At looming end of day; No rush to finish work undone, No light that will not stay. 4 No midnight watchman in the street, Or guard upon the wall, The gates of pearl need never shut, No foe can there appall. 5 No rooster greets the coming sun, No haste to rise and toil; No need to wake, for none have slept: No dreaded daily moil. 6 No fleeting years, or misspent hours, No soon, or late, or speed; No yesterday, tomorrow, nor A tyrant clock to heed. 7 No ghosts of past or future there, In all that light kissed land; But endless joy and peace abound, Blessed by the great I AM. 8 No sick beds, cemeteries there, No hearts with grief o’ercome; No tombstones marching row by row To death’s low sounding drum. 9 Time’s darkly flowing river now Is banished from on high; Before us yearless streams of life: We have no time to die.

My Savior, How Thy Soul Was Awed

Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9844 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My Savior, how Thy soul was awed, When, hanging on the tree, Thou criedst aloud, "My God, my God," Hast Thou forsaken Me? 2 When angry foes around Thee strove, And faithless friends forsook; And earth below, and Heaven above, Wore one dark threatening look. 3 Beneath Thy cross, Lord, let me lie, Thy bleeding love to view; And weep, and watch, and pray that I May ne’er those wounds renew. 4 Beneath Thy cross O let me lie, And mark what Thou hast won, And hear Thy last triumphant cry, "’Tis done! The work is done!" 5 Lord, let my soul that triumph share; I look to Thee to save. Where is thy sting, O death? and where Thy victory, O grave? Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
