Who are these like stars appearing

Author: H. T. Schenk Hymnal: LHPN1913 #493 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing, These, before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; Who are all this glorious band? Hallelujah! hark, they sing, Praising loud their heavenly King. 2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, These in God's own truth arrayed, Clad in robes of purest whiteness, Robes whose luster ne'er shall fade, Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand? Whence come all this glorious band? 3 These are they who have contended For their Savior's honor long, Wrestling on till life was ended, Following not the sinful throng; These, who well the fight sustained, Triumph by the Lamb have gained. 4 These are they whose hearts were riven, Sore with woe and anguish tried, Who in prayer full oft have striven With the God they glorified; Now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 5 These, like priests, have watched and waited, Offering up to Christ their will, Soul and body consecrated, Day and night to serve him still. Now in God's most holy place, Blest they stand before His face.

From all Thy saints in warfare

Author: Horatio Nelson Hymnal: LHPN1913 #494 (1913) Lyrics: 1 From all Thy saints in warfare, For all Thy saints at rest, To Thee, O blessed Jesus, All praises be addressed. Thou, Lord, didst win the battle, That they might conquerors be; Their crowns of living glory Are lit with rays from Thee. 2 Apostles, prophets, martyrs, And all the sacred throng, Who wear the spotless raiment, Who raise the ceaseless song; For these, passed on before us, Savior, we Thee adore, And, walking in their footsteps, Would serve Thee more and more. 3 Then praise we God the Father, And praise we God the Son, And God the Holy Spirit, Eternal Three in One; Till all the ransomed number Fall down before the throne, And honor, power, and glory Ascribe to God alone.

Come, let us join our friends above

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: LHPN1913 #495 (1913) Lyrics: 1 Come, let us join our friends above That have obtained the prize, And on the eagle wings of love To joys celestial rise; Let all the saints terrestrial sing, With those to glory gone; For all the servants of our King, In earth and heaven, are one. 2 One family we dwell in Him, One Church above, beneath, Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death; One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of His host hath crossed the flood, And part are crossing now. 3 Ten thousand to their endless home This solemn moment fly; And we are to the margin come, And we expect to die: His militant, embodied host, With wistful looks we stand, And long to see that happy coast, And reach that heavenly land, 4 Our old companions in distress We haste again to see, And eager long for our release And full felicity: E'en now by faith we join our hands With those that went before, And greet the blood-besprinkled bands On the eternal shore. 5 Our spirits, too, shall quickly join, Like theirs with glory crowned, And shout to see our Captain's sign, To hear His trumpet sound. O that we now might grasp our Guide! O that the word were given! Come, Lord of Hosts, the waves divide, And land us all in heaven.

Hark! ten thousand harps and voices

Author: T. Kelly Hymnal: LHPN1913 #496 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark! ten thousand harps and voices Sound the note of praise above! Jesus reigns, and heaven rejoices; Jesus reigns, the God of love. See, He sits on yonder throne; Jesus rules the world alone. 2 Jesus, hail! Whose glory brightens All above, and makes it fair; Lord of life, Thy smile enlightens, Cheers, and charms Thy people here. When we think of love like Thine, Lord, we own it love divine. 3 King of glory, reign forever; Thine an everlasting crown: Nothing from Thy love shall sever Those whom Thou hast made Thine own: Happy objects of Thy grace, Destined to behold Thy face. 4 Savior, hasten Thine appearing; Bring, O bring the glorious day, When the awful summons hearing, Heaven and earth shall pass away. Then, with golden harps, we'll sing, "Glory, glory,to our King."

Lord, to Thee I make confession

Author: J. Franck Hymnal: LHPN1913 #497 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord, to Thee I make confession, I have sinned and gone astray, I have multiplied transgression, Chosen for myself my way: Forced at last to see my errors, Lord, I tremble at Thy terrors. 2 But from Thee how can I hide me, Thou, O God, art everywhere; Refuge from Thee is denied me, Or by land or sea or air; Nor death's darkness can enfold me, So that thou shouldst not behold me. 3 Yet, though conscience' voice appall me, Father, I will seek Thy face; Though Thy child I scarce dare call me, Yet restore me to Thy grace; Do not for my sins forsake me; Do not let Thy wrath o'ertake me; 4 For Thy Son hath suffered for me, And the blood He shed for sin, That can heal me and restore me, Quench this burning fire within; 'Tis alone His cross can vanquish These dark fears and soothe this anguish. 5 Then on Him I cast my burden, Sink it in the depths below! Let me know Thy gracious pardon, Wash me, make me white as snow. Let Thy Spirit leave me never, Make me only thine forever!

Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost

Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: LHPN1913 #498 (1913) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost, Taught by Thee, we covet most, Of Thy gifts of Pentecost Holy, heavenly love. 2 Faith that mountains could remove, Tongues of earth or heaven above, Knowledge, all things, empty prove, Without heavenly Love. 3 Though I as a martyr bleed, Give my goods the poor to feed, All is vain if love I need; Therefore give us Love. 4 Love is kind, and suffers long, Love is meek and thinks no wrong, Love than death itself more strong; Therefore, give me love. 5 Prophecy will fade away, Melting in the light of day; Love will ever with us stay: Therefore give me love. 6 Faith and hope and love we see, Joining hand in hand, agree; But the greatest of the three, And the best, is Love.

For help, O whither shall I flee?

Author: J. Neander Hymnal: LHPN1913 #499 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 For help, O whither shall I flee? Who now to peace will guide me? To none, dear Savior, but to Thee, Can I with hope confide me. 'Tis Thine to give the weary rest, The mourning soul in Thee is blest,-- Help, Jesus, the afflicted! 2 My sin, O Lord, is now my grief, Against my will it rages: Thy grace alone an bring relief, While sin its warfare wages, All that I need is known to Thee, And now a part myself can see,-- Help, Jesus, the sin-burdened! 3 Good Shepherd, bearest Thou the weak? Sustain me in my weakness! Thou great Physician of the sick, Heal Thou my moral sickness! A prey to death I helpless fall,-- For health and strength to Thee I call, Save, Jesus, or I perish! 4 To those who trust Thee--"Nothing fear? I am the life!"--Thou criest; Seeks not my soul, with strong desire, The life which Thou suppliest? Though all my sorrows Thou canst lead, In death provide for every need-- Help, Jesus, the confiding. 5 I would do good, but still I fail,-- Must I thus always waver? What grief it gives Thou knowest well. Who shall my soul deliver, And set the salve for ever free From sin and death to live with Thee?-- I thank Thee, God, through Jesus!

Father, who on man dost shower

Author: Percy Dearmer Hymnal: LHPN1913 #500 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Father, who on man dost shower Gifts of plenty from Thy dower, To Thy people give the power All Thy gifts to use aright. 2 Give pure happiness in leisure, Temperance in every pleasure, Holy use of earthly treasure, Bodies clear and spirits bright. 3 Lift from this and every nation All that brings us degradation; Quell the forces of temptation; Put Thine enemies to flight. 4 Be with us, Thy strength supplying, That with energy undying, Every foe of man defying, We may rally to the fight. 5 Thou who art our captain ever Lead us on to great endeavor; May Thy Church the world deliver, Give us wisdom, courage, might. 6 Father, who hast sought and found us. Son of God, whose love hath bound us, Holy Ghost, within us, round us, Hear us, Godhead infinite.

Lord, it belongs not to my care

Author: Richard Baxter Hymnal: LHPN1913 #502 (1913) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 If life be long, I will be glad The longer to obey; If short, no laborer is sad, To end this toilsome day. 3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before; And he that to God's kingdom comes Must enter by this door. 4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be? 5 Then I shall end my sad complaints, And weary, sinful days, And join with the triumphant saints That sing my Savior's praise. 6 My knowledge of that life is small; The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him.
