Sinner Secure, The Writing See!
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11152 Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Sinner secure, the writing see!
Death, judgment, hell it speaks to thee;
The number of thy days
Is finished in a moment here,
With horror then thou must appear
Before thy Judge’s face.
2 Weighed in the scale, thou wanting art,
And when thy soul and body part,
Thy guilty spirit flies
From earth, with kindred fiends to dwell,
Condemned the second death to feel,
The death that never dies. Languages: English Tune Title: JOSEPHINE

They Come From Far A King To Seek
Author: Isabella J. Postgate Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12783 Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 They come from far a king to seek,
They find a babe and maiden meek,
In low-roofed oxen stall:
Yet rightly richest gifts they bring,
For truly this Babe is King of all kings,
The God and Lord of all.
2 Bright gold one offers now to Him,
Whose glory makes the fine gold dim,
His kingly state to show;
And myrrh the bitter hour of strife,
When He, who giveth all things life,
In death’s dust lieth low.
3 One offers frankincense sweet and rare,
The symbol meet of praise and prayer,
Before the cradle-throne;
For surely God is in this place,
And in the blessèd Infant’s face
The might of God is shown.
4 Lord, grant us, as the kings of old,
By faith the glory to behold
Which Thy poor form doth veil;
Within the stable’s narrow bound
To know a spot of holy ground
And kneel our God to hail:
5 That, in dark shades of sinful night,
Since Thou dost call us to Thy light,
We may no longer roam;
But, lifting heart and eyes to Heav’n,
We follow the sign Thy love hath giv’n
Until the star leads us home! Languages: English Tune Title: HABAKKUK

How Blest Are Hearts, Which Christ The Lord
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14552 Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 How blest are hearts, which Christ the Lord
Has joined, as with a silver cord,
In spousal unity;
And animated are with love,
And inspirations from above,
O Holy Ghost, by Thee!
2 When angels sang creation’s birth,
Man, fashioned from the dust of earth,
In Eden was alone;
But God made Eve from Adam’s side,
And brought her to him as a bride,
And willed them to be one.
3 O holy wedlock, ratified
In Heav’n; a knot for ever tied
By God in paradise;
O happiness beyond compare,
What tongues of angels to declare
Thy blessedness suffice?
4 Anthems angelical were heard,
When Christ, the Everlasting Word,
To wed His spouse did come,
And take His consecrated bride,
Cleansed by the life-blood from His side,
Unto His heav’nly home.
5 At Cana’s feast, that heav’nly Guest
Did first His Godhead manifest,
And water change to wine;
In wedlock, tears of sorrowing earth
Are changed to wine of heav’nly mirth,
By power and love divine.
6 Mirrored in nuptial purity
The marriage of the Church we see,
And Christ the Bridegroom’s love;
Angels look down, and anthems sing,
The Holy Dove, with golden wing,
Sheds blessings from above.
7 Bless, ever bless, Thy servants, Lord,
Whom Thou dost join in sweet accord.
The bridegroom and the bride;
In sorrow, sickness, and in health,
In tribulation and in wealth,
Be Thou their help and guide.
8 Be with them, Lord, as day by day
They with one heart together pray,
Thy Word together read,
Together at Thine altar kneel,
And with Thy blood their union seal,
On Thee together feed.
9 May they for ever have Thee near,
Making them to Thyself more dear,
And each to each in Thee;
So, when from earthly cares released,
May they at Thine own marriage feast
Be blest eternally.
10 To Father, whose paternal love
Sends benedictions from above,
Eternal praises be;
And God the Son, Incarnate Word,
With Holy Spirit, be adored;
One God and Persons Three.
