As The Sun's Enlivening Eye

Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 62 hymnals First Line: As the sun’s enlivening eye Lyrics: 1 As the sun’s enlivening eye Shines on every place the same; So the Lord is always nigh To the souls that love His name. 2 When they move at duty’s call, He is with them by the way; He is ever with them all, Those who go, and those who stay. 3 From His holy mercy-seat Nothing can their souls confine; Still in spirit they may meet, And in sweet communion join. 4 For a season called to part, Let us then ourselves commend To the gracious eye and heart, Of our ever-present Friend. 5 Jesus, hear our humble prayer! Tender shepherd of Thy sheep! Let Thy mercy and Thy care All our souls in safety keep. 6 In Thy strength may we be strong, Sweeten every cross and pain; Give us, if we live, ere long Here to meet in peace again. 7 Then, if Thou Thy help afford, Ebenezers shall be reared; And our souls shall praise the Lord Who our poor petitions heard Used With Tune: SOLITUDE

The Sovereign of the Sea

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: They that traffic on the sea Lyrics: 1 They that traffic on the sea, While unceasing watch they keep, See Jehovah's majesty And His wonders in the deep; For He bids the storm-wind fly, Lifting ocean's waves on high. 2 By the billows heav'n-ward tossed, Down to dreadful depths again, Troubled much, their courage lost, Reeling, they like drunken men Find their skill and pow'r o'erthrown; None can save but God alone. 3 To Jehovah then they cry In their trouble, and He saves, Drives the darkness from the sky, Calms the storm and stills the waves, Makes their sad forebodings cease, To their haven guides in peace. 4 Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord Who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Praise Him where the people meet, Praise Him in the elders' seat.

God's Time Now

Author: Anonymous Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: Choose I must, and soon must choose Lyrics: 1 Choose I must, and soon must choose Holiness, or Heaven lose; While, what Heaven loves, I hate— Shut for me is Heaven’s gate. 2 Endless sin means endless woe; Into endless sin I go— If my soul, from reason rent, Takes from sin its final bent! 3 As the stream its channel grooves, And within that channel moves— So doth habit’s deepest tide Groove its bed, and there abide! 4 Light obeyed increaseth light! Light resisted bringeth night; Who shall give me will to choose, If the love of light I lose? 5 Speed, my soul! this instant yield! Let the light its scepter wield; While thy God prolongeth grace— Haste thee toward His holy face!

Gladly we respond, Amen! 4 Thus we greet this holy day, Pouring forth our festive day, Thus we tell, with saintly mirth, Of Immanuel’s wondrous birth. 5 We in perfect peace would live, We to God would glory give; Lauding, with the heavenly host, Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Jesu's Precious Name Excels

Author: Matthew Wilks Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 22 hymnals First Line: Jesu’s precious name excels Lyrics: 1 Jesu’s precious name excels Jordan’s streams, and Salem’s wells; Thirsty sinners, come and draw, Quench the flames of Sinai’s law. 2 Fearful sinners, come and try— Draw and drink with inward joy; Christ is fresh, and full, and free; Sinners, come, whoe’er you be. 3 See the waters springing up, To revive your languid hope; Fill your vessels, as it rolls, And refresh your weary souls. 4 Lo! the Spirit now invites! Lo! the happy Bride unites! Jesus calls, be not afraid, Lo! for you the well was made! 5 Justice made it in the Lamb, Mercy grants it thro’ His name; Faith receives a full supply; Those who drink it cannot die. 6 Careless sinner, let me tell, Not a drop is found in hell; Not a drop to ease your smart, Not a drop to cool your heart. 7 Haste you to the Lamb of God, Seek salvation in His blood; In it there is boundless store, For ten thousand thousands more. 8 Constant tributes let us bring, For this soul refreshing spring; Constant let our praises rise, ’Till we drink above the skies.
