Conquering Prince and King of glory

Author: G. Tersteegen Hymnal: LHPN1913 #363 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Conquering Prince and King of glory, Majesty sublimely bright! Heaven and all the heavens adore Thee, Throned above their farthest height. Shall I not, enraptured gazing, At Thy feet fall prostrate, praising, When mine eyes, by faith alight, Mark Thy glory and Thy might? 2 Far on high art Thou ascended, Sitting at Thy Father's right, Pure, seraphic voices blended, Crying, Glory! at the sight. Shall I not fall down before Thee, And with joyful heart adore Thee, When the heavens exultant ring With the triumph of my King? 3 Far and wide Thy brightness spreading Lights the land whose sun Thou art, Nobler bliss and glory shedding On each heavenly spirit's heart. There in highest glory seated, By rejoicing angels greeted; Here, though child of earth, I cry Hallelujah! Lord most high! 4 Of Thy cup shall I be fearful When Thy glory whelms my sight? Shall my courage not be cheerful When I recognize Thy might? Lord, I trust Thee, though Thou slay me; Now, not earth and hell dismay me. Thou my King, my Savior thou, At Thy name alone I bow. 5 Might and spirit now o'erflowing, With Thy power perform Thy word. All Thine enemies o'erthrowing, Make Thy foes Thy footstool, Lord. O'er the earth, O Judah's Lion, Send the scepter out of Zion, Spread Thy sway from sea to sea, Till the earth acknowledge Thee. 6 Throned on high, and all things filling, Thou art with us evermore. Now my soul, with rapture thrilling, Opens wide for Thee its door. Come, O come, Thou King of glory; 'Stablish Thy dominion 'er me; Live in me and reign alone, As upon Thy heavenly throne. 7 Thou ascended, gifts art giving; God and heaven are inly near. By Thee in the Spirit living, I shall stand before Thee there. Alien here to time and senses, Hid in Thee from their offenses; Set in heavenly place with Thee, Jesus, Thou art joy to me.

Hallelujah! And while we see, transformed to be From bliss to bliss eternally! 3 Jesus, Lord, our captain glorious! O’er sin and death and hell victorious; Wisdom and might to Thee belong: We confess, proclaim, adore Thee; We bow the knee, we fall before Thee; Thy love henceforth shall be our song: The cross meanwhile we bear; The crown ere long to wear; Hallelujah! Thy reign extend, world without end, Let praise from all to Thee ascend.

The head that once was crowned with thorns

Author: T. Kelly Hymnal: LHPN1913 #365 (1913) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns Is crowned with glory now; A royal diadem adorns The mighty Victor's brow. 2 The highest place that heaven affords Is His by sovereign right: The King of kings, and Lord of lords, And heaven's eternal Light. 3 The joy of all who dwell above, The joy of all below, To whom He manifests His love And grants His name to know. 4 To them the cross, with all its shame, With all its grace, is given; Their name an everlasting name, Their joy the joy of heaven. 5 They suffer with their Lord below, They reign with Him above; Their profit and their joy to know The mystery of His love. 6 His cross to us is life and health, Though shame and death to Him: His people's hope, His people's wealth Their everlasting theme.

O wondrous Conqueror and great

Author: E. C. Homburg Hymnal: LHPN1913 #366 (1913) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.4.4.4.8 Lyrics: 1 O wondrous Conqueror and great, Scorned by the world Thou didst create, Thy work is all completed! Thy toilsome course is at an end; Thou to the Father dost ascend, In royal glory seated. Lowly, holy, now victorious, High and glorious: Earth and heaven To Thy rule, O Christ, are given. 2 Thou, Lord, art now our head, and we Thy members are, and draw from Thee Our life and full salvation. For comfort, peace, joy, light and power, For balm to heal in sorrow's hour, We yield Thee adoration. Kneeling, feeling, Thou art nearest, Lord, and dearest: we're receiving Grace surpassing our conceiving. 3 Lord Jesus, keep our eyes on Thee; Help us Thy servants true to be, Fulfilling Thy good pleasure, Set Thou our minds on things above, Let this vain world ne'er win our love, Be Thou our only treasure. Wholly, lowly, we would own Thee, And enthrone Thee: wisdom learning, All Thy perfect ways discerning. 4 Thou, Jesus, art our shield and guide, O let Thy words in us abide, Directing all our going. Teach us to love Thy blessed will, To suffer meekly and be still, Nor fear grief's tide o'erflowing. Weeping, keeping low before Thee, We adore Thee. 'Midst our sorrow, Lord, we hail the coming morrow. 5 Lord Jesus, hasten Thy return; Our longing hearts expectant yearn To prove the joys of heaven. Thy precious blood has set us free, We owe our present all to Thee, For us Thy life was given. Singing, bringing praise abounding Now we're sounding never-ending Triumph, Lord, in Thy ascending.

Lo, God to heaven ascendeth!

Author: G.W. Sacer Hymnal: LHPN1913 #367 (1913) Meter: 7.6.7.6.6.7.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Lo, God to heaven ascendeth! Throughout its regions vast, With shouts triumphant blendeth The trumpet's thrilling blast: Sing praise to Christ, the Lord, Sing praise with exultation! King of each heathen nation! The God of hosts adored. 2 With joy is heaven resounding, Christ's glad return to see; Behold the saints surrounding The Lord who set them free: Bright myriads thronging come; The cherub-band rejoices, And loud seraphic voices Welcome Messiah home. 3 No more the way is hidden, Since Christ, our Head, arose; No more to man forbidden, The road to heaven that goes; Our Lord is gone before, Yet here He will not leave us, But soon in heaven receive us: He opens wide the door. 4 Christ is our place preparing. To heaven we, too, shall rise, And, joys angelic sharing, Be where our treasure lies: There may each heart be found, Where Jesus Christ has entered! There let our hopes be centered, Our course still heavenward bound! 5 May we, His servants, thither In heart and mind ascend, And let us sing together,-- We seek Thee, Christ, our friend, Thee, God's anointed Son, Our life, and way to heaven, To whom all power is given, Our joy, and hope, and crown.

Thou art gone up on high

Author: Emma L. Toke Hymnal: LHPN1913 #368 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Thou art gone up on high To mansions in the skies; And round Thy throne unceasingly The songs of praise arise: But we are lingering here, With sin and care oppressed; Lord, send Thy promised Comforter, And lead us to Thy rest. 2 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou didst first come down, Through earth's most bitter misery, To pass unto Thy crown; And girt with griefs and fears Our onward course must be; But only let that path of tears Lead us at last to Thee. 3 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou shalt come again, With all the bright ones of the sky Attendant in Thy train. O by Thy saving power, So make us live and die, That we may stand in that dread hour At Thy right hand on high.

Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: J. Grigg Hymnal: LHPN1913 #369 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of Thee? Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star: He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon; 'Tis midnight with my soul, till He, Bright morning star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No, when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I've no guilt to wash away, No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then, nor is my boasting vain, Till then I boast a Savior slain; And O may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me.

Tears pass away With dawn of day; Sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart, And pain and sorrow shall depart. 4 Whate’er my God ordains is right: Here shall my stand be taken; Though sorrow, need, or death be mine, Yet I am not forsaken; My Father’s care Is round me there; He holds me that I shall not fall, And so to Him I leave it all.

In the hour of trial

Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: LHPN1913 #371 (1913) Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me, Lest by base denial I depart from Thee; When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With forbidden pleasures Would this vain world charm; Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm; Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe; Or should pain attend me On my path below; Grant that I may never Fail Thy hand to see; Grant that I may ever Cast my care on Thee. 4 When my last hour cometh, Fraught with strife and pain, When my dust returneth To the dust again; On Thy truth relying, Through that mortal strife, Jesus, take me, dying, To eternal life.

O Jesus, I have promised

Author: J. E. Bode Hymnal: LHPN1913 #372 (1913) Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; Be Thou forever near me, My Master and my Friend! I shall not fear the battle If Thou art by my side, Nor wander from the pathway If Thou wilt be my guide. 2 O let me feel Thee near me-- The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear. My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. 3 O let me hear Thee speaking In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, To hasten or control; O speak, and make me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul! 4 O Jesus, Thou hast promised To all who follow Thee That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend! 5 O let me see Thy footmarks, And in them plant mine own; My hope to follow duly Is in Thy strength alone. O guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end; And then in heaven receive me, My Savior and my Friend!
