Nearer, my God, to Thee

Author: Sarah F. Adams Meter: 6.4.6.4.6.6.4 Appears in 2,559 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, The sun gone down, Darkness be over me, My rest a stone; Yet in my dreams I'd be Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 3 There let the way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou sendest me In mercy given: Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts Bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs, Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing, Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee!

I praise Thee, O my God and Father

Author: J. Mentzer Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I praise Thee, O my God and Father, For all I am and all I have, The blessings that we daily gather, E'en from our cradle to our grave; For Thy rich grace hath scattered here Whate'er we need to help and cheer. 2 I praise Thee, Savior, whose compassion Hath brought Thee down to succor me; Thy pitying heart sought my salvation, Though keenest woes were heaped on Thee, Wrought me from bondage full release, Made me Thine own and gave me peace. 3 Thee, too, I praise, O Holy Spirit, By whose deep teachings I am made A heavenly kingdom to inherit, Who art my comforter, my aid; Whate'er of good by me is done Is of Thy grace and light alone. 4 And as my life is onward gliding, With each fresh scene anew I mark How Thou art holding me and guiding, Where all seems troubled, strange, and dark; When cares oppress and hopes depart, Thy light hath never failed my heart. 5 Shall I not then be filled with gladness, Shall I not praise Thee evermore? And triumph o'er all fears and sadness, E'en when my cup of woe runs o'er? Though heaven and earth may pass away, I know Thy word stands fast for aye.

There is a land of pure delight

Author: I. Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,419 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight, Where saints immortal reign; Infinite day excludes the night, And pleasures banish pain. 2 There everlasting spring abides, And never-withering flowers: Death, like a narrow sea, divides This heavenly land from ours. 3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood, Stand dressed in living green: So to the Jews old Canaan stood, While Jordan rolled between. 4 But timorous mortals start and shrink To cross this narrow sea, And linger trembling on the brink, And fear to launch away. 5 O could we make our doubts remove, Those gloomy thoughts that rise, And see the Canaan that we love With faith's illumined eyes: 6 Could we but climb where Moses stood, And view the landscape o’er, Not Jordan’s stream, nor death’s cold flood, Should fright us from the shore.

'Twas on that dark, that doleful night

Author: I. Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 373 hymnals Lyrics: 1 ’Twas on that dark, that doleful night, When powers of earth and hell arose Against the Son of God’s delight, And friends betrayed Him to His foes. 2 Before the mournful scene began, He took the bread, and blessed, and brake: What love through all His actions ran! What wondrous words of grace He spake! 3 "This is my body, broke for sin; Receive and eat the living food:" Then took the cup, and blessed the wine; "’Tis the new covenant in my blood." 4 "Do this," He said, "till time shall end, In memory of your dying Friend Meet at my table and record The love of your departed Lord." 5 Jesus, Thy feast we celebrate; We show Thy death, we sing Thy name, Till Thou return, and we shall eat The marriage supper of the Lamb.

Come, Thou Savior of our race

Author: M. Luther; Ambrose, d. 397 Appears in 33 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Savior of our race, Choicest gift of heavenly grace! O Thou blessed virgin’s Son, Be Thy race on earth begun. 2 Not of mortal blood or birth, He descends from Heaven to earth; By the Holy Ghost conceived, Truly man to be believed. 3 Wondrous birth! O wondrous Child! Of the virgin undefiled! Though by all the world disowned, Still to be in heaven enthroned. 4 From the Father forth He came, And returneth to the same, Captive leading death and hell: High the song of triumph swell! 5 Equal to the Father now, Though to dust Thou once didst bow; Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; When shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine, Glorious in its light divine: Let not sin o’ercloud this light, Ever be our faith thus bright.

Unchanging God, hear from eternal heaven

Author: S. J. Stone Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Unchanging God, hear from eternal heaven: We plead Thy gifts of grace, forever given, Thy call, without repentance, calling still, The sure election of Thy sovereign will. 2 Out of our faith in Thee, who canst not lie, Out of our heart’s desire, goes up the cry, From hope’s sweet vision of the thing to be, From love to those who still are loved by Thee. 3 Bring Thy beloved back, Thine Israel, Thine own elect who from Thy favor fell, But not from Thine election!--O forgive, Speak but the word, and lo! the dead shall live. 4 Father of mercies! these the long astray, These in soul-blindness now the far-away, These are not aliens, but Thy sons of yore, O, by Thy Fatherhood, restore, restore! 5 Breathe on Thy Church, that it may greet the day; Stir up her will to toil, and teach, and pray, Till Zionward again salvation come, And all her outcast children are at home. 6 Triune Jehovah, Thine the grace and power, Thine all the work, its past, its future hour; O Thou, who failest not, Thy gifts fulfill, And crown the calling of Thy changeless will.

Blessed Savior, who hast taught me

Author: J. M. Neale Appears in 178 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed Savior, who hast taught me I should live to Thee alone; All these years Thy hand hath brought me Since I first was made Thine own. At the font my vows were spoken By my parents in the Lord, That my vows shall be unbroken, At the altar I record. 2 I would trust in Thy protecting Wholly rest upon Thine arm; Follow wholly Thy directing, O my only guard from harm! Meet me now with Thy salvation, In the Church’s ordered way; Let me feel Thy confirmation In Thy truth and fear today: 3 So that, might and firmness gaining, Hope in danger, joy in grief, Now and evermore remaining In the one and true belief; Resting in my Savior’s merit, Strengthened, with the Spirit’s strength, With Thy Church I may inherit All my Father’s joy at length.

Blest are the pure in heart

Keble Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 403 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blest are the pure in heart, For they shall see our God; The secret of the Lord is theirs, Their soul is Christ's abode. 2 The Lord, who left the heavens, Our life and peace to bring, And dwelt in lowliness with men, Their pattern and their King,-- 3 Still to the lowly soul He doth Himself impart, And for His dwelling and His throne Chooseth the pure in heart. 4 Lord, we Thy presence seek; Ours may this blessing be; O give the pure and lowly heart, A temple meet for Thee.

Christ, whose glory fills the skies

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 483 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies, Christ, the true, the only light, Sun of righteousness, arise, Triumph o'er the shades of night; Day-spring from on high, be near; Day-star, in my heart appear. 2 Dark and cheerless is the morn Unaccompanied by Thee; Joyless is the day's return, Till Thy mercy's beams I see; Till Thou inward light impart, Glad my eyes and warm my heart. 3 Visit, then, this soul of mine; Pierce the gloom of sin and grief; Fill me, radiancy-divine; Scatter all my unbelief: More and more Thyself display, Shining to the perfect day.
