My Faith Looks up to Thee

Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-1887 Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,263 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Saviour divine! Now hear me while I pray; Take all my guilt away; Oh, let me from this day Be wholly Thine. 2 May Thy rich grace impart Strength to my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As Thou hast died for me, Oh, may my love to Thee Pure, warm, and changeless be, A living fire. 3 While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread, Be Thou my Guide; Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow's tears away, Nor let me ever stray From Thee aside. 4 When ends life's transient dream, When death's cold sullen stream Shall o'er me roll; Blest Saviour, then, in love, Fear and distrust remove; Oh, bear me safe above, A ransomed soul.

Saviour, Breathe an Evening Blessing

Author: James Edmeston, 1791-1867 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 863 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Savior, breathe an evening blessing, Ere repose our spirits seal, Sin and want we come confessing, Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal: Though destruction walk around us, Though the arrow past us fly, Angel-guards from Thee surround us, We are safe if Thou art nigh. 2 Though the night be dark and dreary, Darkness cannot hide from Thee; Thou art He, who never weary, Watchest where Thy people be. Should swift death this night o’ertake us, And our couch become our tomb, May the morn in heaven awake us, Clad in light and deathless bloom. Amen. Topics: Worship Used With Tune: VESPER HYMN

A Mighty Fortress is Our God

Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.5.6.6.7 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A mighty Fortress is our God, A trusty Shield and Weapon; He helps us in our every need That has us now o'ertaken. The old malignant foe Means us deadly woe: Deep guile and cruel might Are his dread arms in fight, On earth is not his equal. 2 With might of ours can naught be done, Soon were our loss effected: But for us fights the valiant One Whom God Himself elected, Ask ye who this may be? Jesus Christ, 'tis He, As Lord of Hosts adores, Our only King and Lord, He holds the field forever. 3 Though devils all the world should fill, All watching to devour us, We tremble not, we fear no ill, They cannot overpower us. For this world's prince may still, Scowl fierce as he will, We need not be alarmed, For he is now disarmed; One little word o'erthrows him. 4 The Word thy still shall let remain, Nor any thanks have for it; He's by our side upon the plain, With His good gifts and Spirit, Take they, then, what they will, Life, goods, all; and still, E'en when their worst is done, They yet have nothing won, The kingdom ours remaineth.

Saviour, Sprinkle Many Nations

Author: Arthur Cleveland Coxe, 1818-1896 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 161 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, sprinkle many nations, Fruitful let Thy sorrows be; By Thy pains and consolations Draw the Gentiles unto Thee. Of Thy cross the wondrous story, Be it to the nations told; Let them see Thee in Thy glory, And Thy mercy manifold. 2 Far and wide, though all unknowing, Pants for Thee each mortal breast, Human tears for Thee are flowing, Human hearts in Thee would rest. Thirsting as for dews of even, As the new-mown grass for rain, Thee they seek, as God of heaven, Thee as Man, for sinners slain. 3 Saviour, lo, the isles are waiting, Stretched the hand, and strained the sight, For Thy Spirit, new-creating, Love's pure flame, and wisdom's light. Give the Word, and of the preacher Speed the foot, and touch the tongue, Till on earth by every creature, Glory to the Lamb be sung. Amen. Topics: The Church Used With Tune: GREENVILLE

Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,311 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of Thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; He, whose Word cannot be broken, Formed Thee for His own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake your sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all Thy foes. 2 See the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove. Who can faint while such a river Ever flows their thirst to assuage? Grace, which, like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Saviour, if of Zion's city I, through grace, a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in Thy Name. Fading are the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion's children know. Amen. Topics: The Church Used With Tune: AUSTRIA

A few More Years Shall Roll

A few more struggles here, A few more partings o'er, A few more toils, a few more tears, And we shall weep no more. 3 'Tis but a little while And He shall come again, Who died that we might live, who lives That we with Him may reign: Then, O my Lord, prepare My soul for that glad day; Oh, wash me in Thy precious blood, And take my sins away! Amen. Topics: Death and Resurrection Used With Tune: CHALVEY

O Christ, Our True and Only Light

Author: Johann Heerman, 1585-1647 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our true and only Light, Illumine those who sit in night; Let those afar now hear Thy voice, And in Thy fold with us rejoice. 2 Fill with the radiance of Thy grace The souls now lost in error's maze, And all, O Lord, whose secret minds, Some dark delusion hurts and blinds. 3 And all who else have strayed from Thee, Oh, gently seek! thy healing be To every wounded conscience given, And let them also share Thy heaven. 4 Oh, make the deaf to hear Thy Word, And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord, Who dare not yet the faith avow, Though secretly they hold it now. 5 Shine on the darkened and the cold, Recall the wanderers to Thy fold, Unite those who now walk apart, Confirm the weak and doubting heart. 6 So they with us may evermore Such grace with wondering thanks adore. And endless praise to Thee be given, By all Thy church in earth and heaven. Topics: Epiphany Used With Tune: MENDON

See the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph

Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 202 hymnals Lyrics: 1 See the Conqueror mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds, His chariot, To His heavenly palace gate! Hark! the choir of angel voices, Joyful alleluias sing, And the portals high are lifted To receive their heavenly King. 2 Who is this that comes in glory, With the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies, He has gained the victory! He who on the cross did suffer, He who from the grave arose, He hath vanquished sin and Satan, He by death has spoiled His foes. 3 Now our heavenly Aaron enters, With His blood within the veil; Joshua now is come to Canaan, And the kings before Him quail; Now he plants the tribes of Israel In their promised resting place; Now our great Elijah offers Double portion of His grace. 4 He hath raised our human nature On the clouds to God's right hand; There we sit in heavenly places, There with Him in glory stand. Jesus reigns adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne; Mighty Lord, in Thine ascension We by faith behold our own. Amen. Topics: Ascension Used With Tune: REX GLORIAE
