Come, my soul, thy suit prepare

Author: J. Newton Appears in 716 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare, Jesus loves to answer prayer; He Himself has bid thee pray, Therefore will not say thee nay. 2 Thou art coming to a king, Large petitions with thee bring; For His grace and power are such, None can ever ask to much. 3 With my burden I begin: Lord, remove this load of sin! Let thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 3 God, my Lord, my king, Thou art, Take possession of my heart; There Thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. 5 While I am a pilgrim here, Let Thy love my spirit cheer; Be my guide, my guard, my friend; Lead me to my journey's end. 6 Show me what I have to do; Every hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith; Let me die Thy people's death.

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 756 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou long-expected Jesus, Born to set Thy people free; From our fears and sins release us, Let us find our rest in Thee. Israel's strength and consolation, Hope of all the earth Thou art; Dear desire of every nation, Joy of every longing heart. 2 Born Thy people to deliver; Born a child, and yet a king; Born to reign in us forever, Now Thy gracious kingdom bring, By Thine own eternal Spirit, Rule Thou in our hearts alone; By Thine all-sufficient merit, Raise us to Thy glorious throne.

Author: T. Moore; T. Hastings Appears in 1,075 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish, Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. 2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot cure. 3 Here see the bread of Life, see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love, come, ever knowing Earth has no sorrow but Heaven can remove.

Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness

Author: J. Franck Appears in 121 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Deck thyself, my soul, with gladness, Leave the gloomy haunts of sadness, Come into the daylight’s splendor, There with joy thy praises render Unto him whose grace unbounded, Hath this wondrous banquet founded, High o’er all the heavens He reigneth, Yet to dwell with thee He deigneth. 2 Hasten as a bride to meet Him, And with loving reverence greet Him, For with words of life immortal Now He knocketh at thy portal; Haste to ope the gates before Him, Saying, while thou dost adore Him, "Suffer, Lord, that I receive Thee, And I never more will leave Thee." 3 Ah, how hungers all my spirit For the love I do not merit! Oft have I, with sighs fast thronging, Thought upon this food with longing, In the battle well-nigh worsted, For this cup of life have thirsted, For the Friend, who here invites us And to God Himself unites us. 4 Now I sink before Thee lowly, Filled with joy most deep and holy, As with trembling awe and wonder On Thy mighty work I ponder, How by mystery surrounded, Depths no man hath ever sounded, None may dare to pierce unbidden, Secrets that with Thee are hidden. 5 Sun, who all my life dost brighten, Light, who dost my soul enlighten, Joy, the sweetest man e'er knoweth, Fount, whence all my being floweth. At Thy feet I cry, my Maker, Let me be a fit partaker Of this blessed food from heaven, For our good, Thy glory, given. 6 Jesus, Bread of life, I pray Thee, Let me gladly here obey Thee. By Thy love I am invited, Be Thy love with love requited; From this banquet let me measure, Lord, how vast and deep its treasure; Through the gifts Thou here dost give me As Thy guest in heaven receive me.

Faith is a living power from heaven

Author: P. Herbert Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Faith is a living power from heaven That grasps the promise God hath given, A trust that cannot be o’erthrown, Fixed heartily on Christ alone. 2 Faith finds in Christ whate’er we need To save or strengthen us indeed. Receives the grace He sends us down, And makes us share His cross and crown. 3 Faith in the conscience worketh peace, And bids the mourner’s weeping cease; By faith the children’s place we claim And give all honor to one Name. 4 Faith feels the Spirit’s kindling breath In love and hope that conquer death; Faith worketh hourly joy in God, And trusts and blesses e’en the rod. 5 We thank Thee, then, O God of heaven, That Thou to us this faith hast given In Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who is Our only fount and source of bliss. 6 And from His fullness grant each soul The rightful faith’s true end and goal: The blessedness no foes destroy, Eternal love, and light, and joy.

"Forever with the Lord!"

Author: J. Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 634 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Forever with the Lord!" Amen! so let it be! Life from the dead is in that word, 'Tis immortality! 2 Here, in the body pent, Absent from Him I roam, Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. 3 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul, how near, At times, to faith's foreseeing eye, Thy golden gates appear! 4 Ah!, then my spirit faints To reach the land I love, The bright inheritance of saints, Jerusalem above! 5 "Forever with the Lord!" O Father, if 'tis Thy will, The promise of that faithful word E'en here to me fulfill. 6 Be Thou at my right hand, Then can I never fail; Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand; Fight, and I must prevail. 7 So when my dying breath Shall rend the veil in twain, By death I shall escape from death, To life eternal gain. 8 Knowing as I am known, How shall I love that word And oft repeat, before the throne, "Forever with the Lord!"

From heaven above to earth I come

Author: M. Luther Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 149 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From heaven above to earth I come To bear good news to every home; Glad tidings of great joy I bring, Whereof I now will say and sing. 2 To you this night is born a child Of Mary, chosen mother mild; This little child, of lowly birth, Shall be the joy of all the earth. 3 'Tis Christ, our God, who far no high Hath heard your sad and bitter cry; Himself will your salvation be, Himself from sin will make you free. 4 He brings those blessings, long ago Prepared by God for all below; Henceforth His kingdom open stands To you, as to the angel bands. 5 These are the tokens ye shall mark, The swaddling clothes and manger dark; There shall ye find the young child laid, By whom the heavens and earth were made. 6 Now let us all with gladsome cheer Follow the shepherds, and draw near To see this wondrous gift of God, Who hath His only Son bestowed. 7 Give heed, my heart,lift up thine eyes! Who is it in yon manger lies? Who is this child so young and fair? The blessed Christ-child lieth there. 8 Welcome to earth, Thou noble Guest, Through whom the sinful world is blest! Thou com'st to share our misery, What can we render, Lord, to Thee! 9 Ah, Lord, who hast created all, How hast Thou made Thee weak and small, That Thou must choose Thine infant bed Where ass and ox but lately fed! 10 Were earth a thousand times as fair, Beset with gold and jewels rare, She yet were far too poor to be A narrow cradle, Lord, for Thee. 11 For velvets soft and silken stuff Thou hast but hay and straw so rough, Whereon thou, King, so rich and great, As 'twere Thy heaven, art throned in state. 12 Thus hath it pleased Thee to make plain The truth to sinners poor and vain, That this world's honor, wealth and might Are naught and worthless in Thy sight. 13 Ah, dearest Jesus, Holy Child, Make Thee a bed, soft undefiled, Within my heart, that it may be A quiet chamber kept for Thee. 14 My heart for very joy must leap, My lips no more can silence keep; I, too, must sing with joyful tongue That sweetest ancient cradle song: 15 Glory to God in highest heaven, Who unto man His Son hath given!-- While angels sing with pious mirth A glad New Year to all the earth.
