Our life now has full meaning -- Christ Jesus is our God! Thanksgiving shall be living The way the Savior trod. Topics: Thanksgiving; Thanksgiving Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE

See how the wicked kingdom

Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1. See how the wicked kingdom Is falling every day, And still our blessed Jesus Is winning souls away; But O how I am tempted, No mortal tongue can tell, So often I'm surrounded With enemies from hell. 2. With weeping and with praying, My Jesus I have found, To crucify old nature, And make his grace abound. Dear children, don't be weary, But march on in the way; For Jesus will stand by you, And be your guard and stay. 3. If sinners will serve Satan, And join with one accord, Dear brethren, as for my part, I'm bound to serve the Lord; And if you will go with me, Pray give to me your hand, And we'll march on together, Unto the promised land. 4. Through troubles and distresses, We'll make our way to God; Though earth and hell oppose us, We'll keep the heavenly road. Our Jesus went before us, And many sorrows bore, And we who follow after, Can never meet with more. 5. Thou dear to me, my brethren, Each one of you I find. My duty now compels me To leave you all behind; But while the parting grieves us, I humbly ask your prayers, To bear me up in trouble, And conquer all my fears. 6. And now, my loving brothers, I bid you all farewell! With you my loving sisters, I can no longer dwell. Farewell to every mourner! I hope the Lord you'll find, To ease you of your burden, And give you peace of mind. 7. Farewell, poor careless sinners! I love you dearly well; I've labored much to bring you With Jesus Christ to dwell, I now am bound to leave you— O tell me, will you go? But if you won't decide it, I'll bid you all adieu! 8. We'll bid farewell to sorrow, To sickness, care, and pain, And mount aloft with Jesus For evermore to reign; We'll join to sing his praises Above the ethereal blue, And then, poor careless sinners What will become of you?

O Jesus, King of Glory

Your rule endures forever; In heaven is Your throne. Help that in earth's dominions, From pole to farthest pole, Your reign may spread salvation To each benighted soul. 2 The eastern Magi, coming Their gifts of love to bring, Bear witness to Your glory And worship You, their King. To You the star is pointing And the prophetic Word; So joyously we hail You: Our Savior and our Lord. 3 You are a mighty monarch, As by Your Word is told, And yet You care but little For earthly goods or gold. You do not come displaying Your power and renown. You dwell in no high castle; You wear no jeweled crown. 4 Oh, look on me with pity Though I am weak and poor; Admit me to Your kingdom To dwell there, blest and sure. I pray, Lord, guide and keep me Safe from my bitter foes, From sin and death and Satan; Free me from all my woes. 5 Then let Your Word within me Shine as the fairest star; Keep sin and all false doctrine Forever from me far. Help me confess You truly And with all Christendom Here hail You King and Savior And in the world to come.
