At the Name of Jesus

Author: Caroline Maria Noel Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 259 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus Every knee shall bow, Every tongue confess Him King of glory now; ’Tis the Father’s pleasure We should call Him Lord, Who from the beginning Was the mighty Word. 2 Humbled for a season, To receive a name From the lips of sinners, Unto whom He came, Faithfully He bore it Spotless to the last, Brought it back victorious When from death He passed; 3 Bore it up triumphant, With its human light, Through all ranks of creatures, To the central height, To the throne of Godhead, to the Father’s breast; Filled it with the glory Of that perfect rest. 4 Christians, this Lord Jesus Shall return again, With His Father’s glory, O'er the earth to reign; For all wreaths of empire Meet upon His brow, And our hearts confess Him King of glory now.

Abide with Me

Author: Henry Francis Lyte Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 1,708 hymnals First Line: Abide with me: fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide! When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day; Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 5 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies: Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in Thee. 3 Mortals, join the happy chorus Which the morning stars began; Love divine is reigning o’er us, Joining all in heaven's plan. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife, Joyful music leads us sunward In the triumph song of life.
