In Thy Name, O Lord, Assembling
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 259 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In Thy Name, O Lord, assembling,
We, Thy people, now draw near:
Teach us to rejoice with trembling;
Speak, and let Thy servants hear;
Hear with meekness,
Hear Thy word with godly fear.
2 While our days on earth are lengthened,
May we give them, Lord, to Thee;
Cheered by hope, and daily strengthened,
May we run, nor weary be,
Till Thy glory
Without cloud in heaven we see.
3 There, in worship purer, sweeter,
All Thy people shall adore;
Tasting of enjoyment greater
Than they could conceive before;
Full enjoyment,
Full and pure, for evermore. Topics: Opening Used With Tune: SICILIAN MARINERS' HYMN
In Thy Name, O Lord, Assembling
Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem
Author: Job Hupton, 1762-1849; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 81 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem,
Cleave the skies with shouts of praise;
Sing to him who found the ransom,
Ancient of eternal days,
God eternal, Word incarnate,
Whom the heaven of heaven obeys.
2 Ere he raised the lofty mountains,
Formed the sea, or built the sky,
Love eternal, free, and boundless,
Forced the Lord of life to die,
Lifted up the Prince of princes
On the throne of Calvary.
3 Now on those eternal mountains
Stands the sapphire throne, all bright,
With the ceaseless alleluias
Which they raise, the sons of light;
Sion's people tell his praises,
Victor after hard-won fight.
4 Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
Sweep the string and pour the lay;
Let the earth proclaim his wonders,
King of that celestial day;
He the Lamb once slain is worthy,
Who was dead, and lives for ay.
5 Laud and honour to the Father,
Laud and honour to the Son,
Laud and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Three and ever One,
One in love, and One in splendour,
While unending ages run. Amen. Topics: Eastertide; Ascensiontide Used With Tune: NEANDER

Jesus Came, the Heavens Adoring
Author: Godfrey Thring Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 111 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus came, the heavens adoring–
came with peace from realms on high,
Jesus came for our redemption,
humbly came on earth to die;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
came in deep humility.
2 Jesus comes to us in mercy
when our hearts are bowed with care;
Jesus comes in power, to answer
every earnest, heartfelt prayer:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
comes to save us from despair.
3 Jesus comes to hearts rejoicing–
all the past he now forgives;
Jesus comes to share his kingdom
with the sinners he receives:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Death is conquered: Jesus lives!
4 Jesus comes on clouds triumphant
when the heavens shall pass away;
Jesus comes again in glory–
let us then our homage pay,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
till the dawn of endless day.

Jesus Came, the Heavens Adoring
Lo! he comes, with clouds descending
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 779 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo! he comes with clouds descending,
once for our salvation slain;
thousand, thousand saints attending
swell the triumph of his train:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord returns to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold him,
robed in dreadful majesty;
those who set at nought and sold him,
pierced, and nailed him to the tree,
deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
shall the true Messiah see.
3 Those dear tokens of his passion
still his dazzling body bears,
cause of endless exultation
to his ransomed worshipers;
with what rapture, with what rapture,
gaze we on those glorious scars!
4 Yea, amen! let all adore thee,
high on thine eternal throne;
Savior, take the power and glory;
claim the kingdom for thine own:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou shalt reign, and thou alone.

God of grace and God of glory
Sing, my tongue, the Saviour’s glory
Author: Thomas Aquinas, c. 1227-74; Edward Caswall, 1814-78 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 42 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the Saviour’s glory,
of his flesh the mystery sing:
of the blood all price exceeding
shed by our eternal King,
destined for the world's redemption
from a Virgin's womb to spring.
2 Born for us, and for us given,
born to live like us below,
he, a man with us abiding,
lived the gospel seed to sow;
and at last faced death undaunted,
his self-giving love to show.
3 On the night of that last supper,
seated with his chosen band,
first the passover observing
he fulfils the law's command,
then as food to his disciples
gives himself with his own hand.
4 Word made flesh! His word life-giving
gives his flesh our food to be,
wine as his own blood he offers;
then, though senses fail to see,
faith alone the true heart wakens
to behold the mystery.
5 Therefore we, before him kneeling,
this great sacrament revere;
ancient forms all have their ending
for the newer rite is here;
faith its aid to sight is lending:
though unseen, the Lord is here.
6 Glory let us give and blessing,
to the Father and the Son,
honour, might and praise addressing
while eternal ages run,
and the Spirit's love confessing,
who from both with both is one. Topics: Maundy Thursday; Saints Days and Holy Days Apostles Scripture: Hebrews 9:19-28 Used With Tune: HOLYWOOD

glory be to God the Son,
glory be to God the Spirit, --
great Jehovah, Three in One!
Glory, glory, glory, glory
while eternal ages run!
2 Glory be to him who loved us,
washed us from each spot and stain!
Glory be to him who bought us,
made us kings with him to reign!
Glory, glory, glory, glory
to the Lamb that once was slain!
3 Glory to the King of angels,
glory to the Church’s King,
glory to the King of nations!
Heaven and earth, your praises bring;
Glory, glory, glory, glory
to the King of glory sing!
4 Glory, blessing, praise eternal!
Thus the choir of angels sings;
'Honour, riches, power, dominion!'
Thus its praise creation brings;
Glory, glory, glory, glory,
glory to the King of kings!
