O great I AM! in you we rest, sure answer to our every quest. 4 You only are true Life, to know you is to live the more abundant life that earth can never give. O risen Lord! we live in you: in us each day your life renew! 5 We worship you, Lord Christ, our Savior and our King; to you our youth and strength adoringly we bring: so fill our hearts that all may view your life in us, and turn to you!

My Song Is Love Unknown

Author: S. Crossman, c. 1624-84 Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.8 Appears in 129 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown, My Savior’s love to me, Love to the loveless shown That they might lovely be. O who am I That for my sake My Lord should take frail flesh and die? 2 He came from His blest throne Salvation to bestow; But men grew strange, and none The longed-for Christ would know. But, O my Friend, My Friend indeed, Who at my need His life did spend! 3 In life no house, no home My Lord of earth might have; In death no friendly tomb But what a stranger gave. What may I say? Heav'n was His home; but mine the tomb wherein He lay. 4 Here might I stay and sing; No story so divine, Never was love, dear King, Never was grief like Thine. This is my Friend, In whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend. Topics: Passion of Christ

Join All the Glorious Names

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.8 Appears in 339 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names of wisdom, love, and pow'r, that ever mortals knew or angels ever bore; all are too weak to speak His worth, too poor to set my Savior forth. 2 Great Prophet of my God, my tongue would bless your name; by you the joyful news of our salvation came: the joyful news of sins forgiv'n, of hell subdued, and peace with heav'n. 3 Jesus, my great High Priest, offered his blood, and died: my guilty conscience seeks no sacrifice beside; the pow'r of your atoning blood has won acceptance with my God. 4 Divine almighty Lord, my conqueror and my King: your scepter and your sword, your reigning grace I sing: and so I sit in willing service at your feet.

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, let us praise the Lord, with joy our God acclaim, his greatness tell abroad and bless his saving name. Lift high your songs before his throne to whom alone all praise belongs. 2 Our God of matchless worth, our King beyond compare, the deepest bounds of earth, the hills, are in his care. He all decrees, who by his hand prepared the land and formed the seas. 3 In worship bow the knee, our glorious God confess; the great Creator, he, the Lord our Righteousness. He reigns unseen: his flock he feeds and gently leads in pastures green. 4 Come, hear his voice today, receive what love imparts; his holy will obey and harden not your hearts. His ways are best; and lead at last, all troubles past, to perfect rest.
