Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,888 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling, joy of heaven, to earth come down; fix in us thy humble dwelling, all thy faithful mercies crown. Jesus, thou art all compassion, pure, unbounded love thou art; visit us with thy salvation, enter every trembling heart. 2 Come, Almighty to deliver, let us all thy life receive; suddenly return, and never, nevermore thy temples leave. Thee we would always blessing, serve thee with thy hosts above, pray and praise thee without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love. 3 Finish, then, thy new creation; pure and spotless let us be; let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee: changed from glory into glory, till in heaven we take our place, till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Alleluia! Sing to Jesus

Author: William C. Dix, 1837-1898 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 218 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! Sing to Jesus; his the scepter, his the throne; Alleluia! his the triumph, his the victory alone. Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion thunder like a mighty flood: "Jesus, out of ev'ry nation has redeemed us by his blood." 2 Alleluia! Not as orphans are we left in sorrow now; Alleluia! he is near us; faith believes, nor questions how. Though the cloud from sight received him when the forty days were o'er, shall our hearts forget his promise: "I am with you evermore"? 3 Alleluia! Bread of heaven, here on earth our food, our stay; Alleluia! here the sinful flee to you from day to day. Intercessor, friend of sinners, earth's redeemer, hear our plea where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea. 4 Alleluia! King eternal, Lord omnipotent we own: Alleluia! born of Mary, earth your footstool, heav'n your throne. As within the veil you entered, robed in flesh, our great high priest, here on earth both priest and victim in the eucharistic feast. 5 Alleluia! Sing to Jesus; his the scepter, his the throne; Alleluia! his the triumph, his the victory alone. Hark! The songs of peaceful Zion thunder like a mighty flood; "Jesus out of ev'ry nation has redeemed us by his blood." Topics: Easter; Ascension; Easter Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Lord of Glory, You Have Bought Us

Author: Eliza S. Alderson, 1818-1889 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 65 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord of glory, you have bought us with your life-blood as the price, never grudging for the lost ones that tremendous sacrifice; and with that have freely given blessings countless as the sand to th'unthankful and the evil with your own unsparing hand. 2 Grant us hearts, dear Lord, to give you gladly, freely, of your own. With the sunshine of your goodness melt our thankless hearts of stone till our cold and selfish natures, warmed by you, at length believe that more happy and more blessed 'tis to give than to receive. 3 Wondrous honor you have given to our humblest charity in your own mysterious sentence, "You have done it all for me." Can it be, O gracious Master, that you need what we can do, saying by your poor and needy, "Give as I have giv'n to you"? 4 Lord of glory, you have bought us with your life-blood as the price, never grudging for the lost ones that tremendous sacrifice. Give us faith to trust you boldly, hope, to stay our souls on you; but, oh, best of all your graces, with your love our love renew. Topics: Society Scripture: 1 John 3:16-18 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL

Call Jehovah Thy Salvation

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 216 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Call Jehovah thy salvation, rest beneath th'Almighty's shade; in His secret habitation dwell, and never be dismayed. There no tumult shall alarm thee, thou shalt dread no hidden snare; guile nor violence can harm thee in eternal safeguard there. 2 From the sword at noonday wasting, from the noisome pestilence, in the depth of midnight blasting, God shall be thy sure defense. Fear not thou the deadly quiver, when a thousand feel the blow; mercy shall thy soul deliver, tho' ten thousand be laid low. 3 Only with thine eyes the anguish of the wicked thou shalt see, when by slow disease they languish, when they perish suddenly. Thee, tho' winds and waves be swelling, God, thine hope, shall bear thro' all; plague shall not come nigh thy dwelling, thee no evil shall befall.
