Lord, We Come Before Thee Now

Author: Rev. William Hammond Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 820 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, we come before Thee now, At Thy feet we humbly bow; O do not our suit disdain! Shall we seek Thee, Lord, in vain? Shall we seek Thee, Lord, in vain? 2 Lord, on Thee our souls depend; In compassion now descend; Fill our hearts with Thy rich grace, Tune our lips to sing Thy praise, Tune our lips to sing Thy praise. 3 In Thine own appointed way, Now we seek Thee; here we stay; Lord, we know not how to go, Till a blessing Thou bestow, Till a blessing Thou bestow. 4 Send some message from Thy Word, That may joy and peace afford; Let Thy Spirit now impart Full salvation to each heart, Full salvation to each heart. 5 Comfort those who weep and mourn; Let the time of joy return; Heal the sick, the captive free; Let us all rejoice in Thee, Let us all rejoice in Thee.

Christ, the Lamb for sinners given, Re-ascends His native heav'n, Re-ascends His native heav'n. 2 There the glorious triumph waits: Lift your heads, eternal gates; He hath conquered death and sin; Take the King of glory in! Take the King of glory in. 3 Him though highest heaven receives, Yet He loves the earth He leaves; Though returning to His throne, Still He calls mankind His own, Still He calls mankind His own. 4 See He lifts His hands above! See, He shows the prints of love! Hark! His gracious lips bestow Blessings on His church below! Blessings on His church below! 5 Still for us His death He pleads; Ever for us intercedes; Near Himself prepares our place, He the Firstfruits of our race, He the Firstfruits of our race. 6 There we shall with Thee remain, Partners of Thy endless reign; There Thy face unclouded see, Find our heaven of heavens in Thee, Find our heaven of heavens in Thee. Amen. Topics: Church Year Ascension; Ascension; Names and Office of Christ Lamb; Man glorified; Heaven Used With Tune: HENDON

Come, My Soul, with Every Care

Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 715 hymnals First Line: Come, my soul, with ev'ry care Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, with ev'ry care; Jesus loves to answer prayer. He himself bids you to pray. He will never turn away, he will never turn away. 2 You are coming to a king-- large petitions with you bring. For his grace and pow'r are such, none can ever ask too much, none can ever ask too much. 3 With my burden I begin: Lord, remove this load of sin; let your blood, for sinners spilt, set my conscience free from guilt, set my conscience free from guilt. 4 Lord, your rest to me impart; take possession of my heart. There your blood-bought right maintain, and without a rival reign, and without a rival reign. 5 While I am a pilgrim here, let your love my spirit cheer. As my guide, my guard, my friend, lead me to my journey's end, lead me to my journey's end. 6 Show me what I have to do; ev'ry hour my strength renew. I would have your will, not mine; for it's perfect, good, and kind, for it's perfect, good, and kind.
