Lo, The Earth Is Risen Again

Author: Samuel Longfellow Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11079 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Lo, the earth is risen again From the winter’s bond and pain! Bring we leaf and flower and spray To adorn our holiday! 2 Once again the word comes true, Lo, He maketh all things new! Now the dark, cold days are o’er, Light and gladness are before. 3 How our hearts leap with the spring! How our spirits soar and sing! Light is victor over gloom, Life triumphant o’er the tomb. 4 Change, then, mourning into praise, And, for dirges, anthems raise! All our fears and griefs shall be Lost in immortality.

Love For All!

Author: Samuel Longfellow Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11154 Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Love for all! and can it be? Lyrics: 1 Love for all! and can it be? Can I hope it is for me? I, who strayed so long ago, Strayed so far, and fell so low! 2 I, the disobedient child, Wayward, passionate, and wild; I, who left my Father’s home In forbidden ways to roam! 3 I, who spurned His loving hold, I, who would not be controlled; I, who would not hear His call, I, the willful prodigal! 4 I, who wasted and misspent Every talent He had lent; I, who sinned again, again, Giving every passion reign! 5 To my Father can I go? At His feet myself I’ll throw, In His house there yet may be Place, a servant’s place, for me. 6 See, my Father waiting stands; See, He reaches out His hands; God is love! I know, I see There is love for me—even me! Languages: English Tune Title: HORTON

Mercy Speaks By Jesu's Blood

Author: William Gadsby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11220 Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Mercy speaks by Jesu’s blood Lyrics: 1 Mercy speaks by Jesu’s blood, Hear and sing, ye sons of God, Justice satisfied indeed, Christ hath full atonement made. 2 Jesu’s blood speaks loud and sweet, Here all Deity can meet, And without a jarring voice, Welcome Zion to rejoice. 3 Should the law against her roar, Jesu’s blood still speaks with power; "All her debts were cast on Me, And she must and shall go free." 4 Peace of conscience, peace with God, We obtain through Jesu’s blood; Jesu’s blood speaks solid rest, We believe, and we are blest. 5 When the blood of sprinkling cries, Clouds are banished from the skies; Every attribute divine, In their greatest glory shine. 6 Jesu’s blood speaks life and power, And in every trying hour, Trusting this almighty voice, Zion must and shall rejoice. 7 Would the Christian walk in love, Circumspect and godly prove, Then be this his constant aim, On the blood of Christ to lean. 8 Here’s his strength to will and do, And whatever he goes through, This should be his only plea, "Jesu’s blood was shed for me." 9 O ye wretched sinners base, Sunk in sin and sad disgrace; Hear the blood of sprinkling cry, Come, and you shall never die.

O This Soul, How Dark And Blind

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11263 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 O this soul, how dark and blind; O this foolish, earthly mind; Ever froward selfish will, Which refuses to be still! 2 O these ever roaming eyes, Upward that refuse to rise; These still wayward feet of mine, Found in every path but Thine! 3 O these pulses felt within, Beating for the world and sin; Sending round the fevered blood, In a fierce and carnal flood! 4 O this stubborn prayerless knee, Hands so solemn clasped to Thee, Longings of the soul that go, Like the wild wind to and fro. 5 To and fro without an aim, Turning idly whence they came, Bringing in no joy, no bliss— Adding to my weariness! 6 Giver of the heav’nly peace, Bid, O bid, these tumults cease; Minister Thy holy balm, Fill me with Thy Spirit’s calm. 7 Thou the life, the truth, the way, Leave me not in sin to stay; Bearer of the sinner’s guilt, Lead me, lead me, as Thou wilt.

Hark! That Sound Of Rapturous Joy

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11268 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark! that sound of rapturous joy Bursting forth from yonder cloud: Jesus comes, and thro’ the sky, Angels tell their joy aloud. 2 Now the world’s duration ends, Now the Lord will meet his foes; These shall perish, but His friends Shall in Heav’n obtain repose. 3 Hark, the trumpet’s awful voice Sounds abroad thro’ sea and land; Let His people now rejoice, Their redemption is at hand. 4 See! the Lord appears in view, Heav’n and earth before Him fly: Rise, ye saints, He comes for you; Rise to meet Him in the sky. 5 Go and dwell with Him above, Where no foes can e’er molest; Happy in the Savior’s love!

Time Is Earnest

Author: Sidney Dyer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11385 Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Time is earnest, passing by Lyrics: 1 Time is earnest, passing by; Death is earnest, drawing nigh. Sinner! wilt thou trifling be? Time and death appeal to thee. 2 Life is earnest; when ’tis o’er Thou returnest nevermore. Soon to meet eternity, Wilt thou never serious be? 3 Heaven is earnest; solemnly Float its voices down to thee. Oh, thou mortal, art thou gay, Sporting through thine earthly day? 4 Hell is earnest; fiercely roll Burning billows near thy soul. Woe for thee! if thou abide Unredeemed, unsanctified! 5 God is earnest: kneel and pray, Ere thy season pass away— Ere He set His judgment throne, Vengeance ready, mercy gone. 6 Christ is earnest, bids thee "Come!" Paid thy spirit’s priceless sum. Wilt thou spurn the Savior’s love, Pleading with thee from above? 7 Thou refusest! wretched one! Thou despisest God’s dear Son! Madness! dying sinner, turn! Lest His wrath within thee burn. 8 When thy pleasures all depart What will soothe thy fainting heart? Friendless, desolate, alone, Entering a world unknown. 9 Oh, be earnest! loitering Thou wilt perish: lingering Be no longer—rise and flee; Lo! thy Savior waits for thee.

Wherefore Do The Nations Rage

Author: Robert Grant, 1780-1838 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11871 Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Wherefore do the nations wage Lyrics: 1 Wherefore do the nations wage War against the King of kings? Whence the people’s maddening rage, Fraught with vain imaginings? 2 Haughty chiefs and rulers proud Forth in banded fury run, Braving, with defiance loud, God and His anointed Son. 3 "Let us break their bonds in twain! Let us cast their cords away!" But the Highest with disdain Sees and mocks their vain array. 4 "High on Zion I prepare" (Thus He speaks) "a regal throne; Thou, My Prince, My chosen heir, Rise to claim it as Thine own!" 5 "Son of God, with God the same, Enter Thine imperial dome! Lo! the shaking heav’ns proclaim, Mightiest Lord, Thy kingdom come. 6 "Pomp or state dost Thou demand? In Thy Father’s glory shine! Dost Thou ask for high command? Lo! the universe is Thine!" 7 Ye who spurn His righteous sway, Yet, ah yet, He spares your breath; Yet His hand, averse to slay, Balances the bolt of death. 8 Ere that dreadful bolt descends, Haste before His feet to fall, Kiss the scepter He extends, And adore Him, Lord of all!

Furness Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11891 Meter: 7.7.7.7 First Line: Slowly, by God’s hand unfurled Lyrics: 1 Slowly, by God’s hand unfurled, Down around the weary world Falls the darkness; O, how still Is the working of His will! 2 Mighty Spirit, ever nigh! Work in me as silently; Veil the day’s distracting sights, Show me Heaven’s eternal lights. 3 Living stars to view be brought In the boundless realms of thought; High and infinite desires, Flaming like those upper fires! 4 Holy truth, eternal right, Let them break upon my sight; Let them shine serene and still, And with light my being fill.
