Christ, the Head of the Church
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #131 (1844) Meter: 7.7.4 First Line: Head of the Church triumphant Lyrics: 1 Head of the Church triumphant,
We joyfully adore thee;
Till thou appear, thy members here
Shall thirst for greater glory.
2 We lift our hearts and voices,
With blest anticipation;
And cry aloud, and give to God
The praise of our salvation.
3 While in affliction’s furnace,
And passing through the fire,
Thy love we praise, which tries our ways,
And ever brings us higher.
4 We lift our hands, exulting
In thy almighty favour;
The love divine which made us thine
Shall keep us thine for ever.
5 Thou dost conduct thy people
Through torrents of temptation;
Nor will we fear, while thou art near,
The fire of tribulation.
6 [The world, with sin and Satan,
In vain our march opposes,
By thee we shall break through them all,
And sing the song of Moses.]
7 By faith we see the glory
To which thou shalt restore us,
The world despise for that high prize
Which thou hast set before us.
8 And if thou count us worthy,
We each, as dying Stephen,
Shall see thee stand at God’s right hand,
To take us up to heaven. Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ Languages: English
Christ, the Head of the Church
Let no hopeless tears be shed
Author: R. F. Littledale Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #245a (1898) Meter: 7.7.4 Lyrics: 1 Let no hopeless tears be shed,
Holy is this narrow bead.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
2 Death eternal life bestows,
Open heaven's portal throws.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
3 And no peril waits at last,
Him who now away hath past.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
4 Not salvation hardly won,
Not the meed for race well run:
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
5 But the pity of the Lord,
Give His child a full reward;
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
6 Grants the prize without the course,
Crowns, without the battle's force.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
7 Christ, when this sad life is done,
Join to us Thy little one.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
8 And in Thy own tender love,
Bring us to the ranks above.
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
Amen.
