The Exampleof Christ and the Saints

Appears in 517 hymnals First Line: Give me the Wings of Faith to rise Lyrics: 1 Give me the Wings of faith to rise Within the Veil, and see The saints above, how great their Joys, How bright their Glories be? 2 Once they were mourning here below, And wet their Couch with Tears; They wrestled hard, as we do now, With Sin, and Doubts and Fears. 3 I ask them, whence their Vict'ry came? They, with united Breath, Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb; Their Triumph to his Death. 4 They mark'd the Footsteps that he trod His (Zeal inspir'd their Breast:) And, following their incarnate God, Possess'd the promis'd Rest. 5 Our glorious Leader claims our Praise For his own Pattern giv'n, While the long Cloud of Witnesses Show the same Path to Heav'n.

Following the Example of Christ

Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: It is a very pleasant Thing Lyrics: 1 It is a very pleasant thing To follow Christ our Lord; And thus obey our heav'nly King, According to his Word. 2 Down to the Water side we go; By Christ's Example led; Thus the same we come also, As did our glorious Head. 3 Saviour, we bless thy wond'rous Name, For thy Example bright; We love to imitate the same, As thou dost us invite. 4 We are baptiz'd as Jesus was, His easy Yoke we bear; And we are thus baptiz'd because That we his Subjects are. 5 Lord may we to thy Glory live, Teach us thy heav'nly Ways; To us thy Holy Spirit give, And we thy Name will praise. 6 And we thy sacred Name profess, May we our Moments spend In Ways of Truth and Righteousness, Until our Lives shall end.
