Thank and Praise Jehovah's Name
Author: Montgomery Appears in 111 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thank and praise Jehovah's name;
For his mercies, firm and sure,
From eternity the same,
To eternity endure.
Let the ransomed thus rejoice,
Gathered out of every land,
As the people of his choice,
Plucked from the destroyer's hand.
2 In the wilderness astray,
Hither, thither, while they roam,
Hungry, fainting by the way,
Far from refuge, shelter, home,—
Then unto the Lord, they cry;
He inclines a gracious ear,
Sends deliverance from on high,
Rescues them from all their fear.
3 To a pleasant land he brings,
Where the vine and olive grow,
Where from flowery hills the springs
Through luxuriant valleys flow.
Oh, that men would praise the Lord
For his goodness to their race;
For the wonders of his word,
And the riches of his grace. Used With Tune: [Thank and praise Jehovah's name]

Christ the Lord Is Risen To-day
Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 87 hymnals First Line: Christ the Lord is ris'n today Lyrics: 1 Christ the Lord is ris'n to-day,
Christians, haste your vows to pay,
Offer ye your praises meet,
At the Paschal Victim's feet.
For the sheep the Lamb hath bled,
Sinless, in the sinner's stead;
"Christ is ris'n," to-day we cry;
Now He lives, no more to die.
2 Christ, the Victim undefiled,
Man to God hath reconciled,
Whilst in strange and awful strife
Met together Death and Life.
Christians, on this happy day,
Haste with joy your vows to pay;
"Christ is risen," to-day we cry;
Now He lives, no more to die.
3 Christ, who once for sinners bled,
Now the First-born from the dead,
Throned in endless might and power
Lives and reigns for evermore.
Hail, eternal Hope on high!
Hail, Thou King of victory!
Hail, Thou Prince of Life adored!
Help and save us, gracious Lord.
Amen.

The close of the year
Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 52 hymnals First Line: Thou who roll'st the year around Lyrics: 1 Thou who roll'st the year around,
Crowned with mercies large and free,
Rich thy gifts to us abound,
Warm our praise shall rise to thee.
Kindly to our worship bow,
While our grateful thanks we tell,
That, sustained by thee, we now
Bid the parting year--farewell!
2 All its numbered days are sped,
All its busy scenes are o'er,
All its joys for ever fled,
All its sorrows felt no more.
Mingled with the eternal past,
Its remembrance shall decay;
Yet to be revived at last
At the solemn judgment-day.
3 All our follies, Lord, forgive!
Cleanse us from each guilty stain;
Let thy grace within us live,
That we spend not years in vain.
Then, when life's last eve shall come,
Happy spirits, may we fly
To our everlasting home,
To our Father's house on high! Used With Tune: St. George

God Of Nations, Throned Above
Author: J. H. Kuhlman Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 God of nations, throned above,
Mighty Ruler of all men,
For Thy mercy and Thy love
O accept our thanks again.
Richly Thou hast blessed our land,
But so often we forget;
God of Jacob, by Thy hand
Lead our wayward people yet.
2 Kindle still the holy fires,
Lord, extend o'er us Thy rod;
Not in vain our martyred sires
Died for country and for God;
May the freedom they have giv'n
Sign and symbol ever be
Of the liberty from heav'n,
Wherewith Christ hath made us free.
3 Lord, exert Thy gracious sway
O'er the world, from shore to shore,
And to ev'ry nation say:
Ye shall learn to war no more!
He alone can send release
Who for sins was sacrificed;
Hence we pray for endless peace
In the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen. Topics: National; Processionals and Recessionals National Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE

"Rest and Love"
Author: Mrs. Eric Findlater Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: Lord, remove the vail away Lyrics: 1 Lord, remove the vail away,
Let us see thyself to-day:
Thou who camest from on high,
For our sins to bleed and die,
Help us now to cast aside
All that would our hearts divide;
With the Father and the Son
Let thy living church be one.
2 Oh, from earthly cares set free,
Let us find our rest in thee;
May our toils and conflicts cease
In the calm of Sabbath peace;
That thy people here below
Something of the bliss may know,
Something of the rest and love,
In the Sabbath-home above.
3 Give our souls the spotless dress
Of thy perfect righteousness;
So at length each welcome guest,
Then shall enter to the feast,
Take the harp and raise the song,
All thy ransomed ones among;
Earthly cares and sorrows o'er,
Joys to last for evermore. Topics: Opening of Service Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:12 Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE

Christ Is Risen From The Dead
Author: Henry Albert Becker Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Christ is risen from the dead! Lyrics: 1 Christ is risen from the dead!
Darkness now no more shall reign;
Thorns no more shall crown the head
That was bowed with grief and pain:
Christ, the Lord, the mighty King,
From our sin has made us free,--
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Where, O grave, thy victory?
2 Scoffers now no more will say:
If Thou be the Christ, come down
From the cross, and prove today
That to Thee belongs the crown!
For our risen Lord and King
From our sins hath made us free,--
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Where, O grave, thy victory?
3 Faith now knows He is the Lord,
Gives assent to His decree,
Trusts the promise in His Word
And is crowned with victory,
Shouting praises to the King,
Who from sin hath made us free,--
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Where, O grave, thy victory?
Amen.
