Sing Alleluia forth in duteous praise

Author: Rev. John Ellerton Appears in 106 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing Alleluia forth in duteous praise, Ye citizens of heaven; O sweetly raise An endless Alleluia. 2 Ye powers, who stand before the eternal Light, In hymning choirs re-echo to the height An endless Alleluia. 3 The holy city shall take up your strain, And with glad songs resounding wake again An endless Alleluia. 4 In blissful antiphons ye thus rejoice To render to the Lord with thankful voice An endless Alleluia. 5 Ye who have gained at length your palms in bliss, Victorious ones, your chant shall still be this, An endless Alleluia. 6 There, in one grand acclaim, for ever ring The strains which tell the honor of your King, An endless Alleluia. 7 This is sweet rest for weary ones brought back, This is glad food and drink which ne'er shall lack, An endless Alleluia. 8 While Thee, by whom were all things made, we praise For ever, and tell out in sweetest lays An endless Alleluia. 9 Almighty Christ, to Thee our voices sing Glory for evermore; to Thee we bring An endless Alleluia. Amen. Text Sources: Latin, c. 5th cent.

Christ for the world we sing

Author: Rev. Samuel Wolcott Appears in 412 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With loving zeal; The poor, and them that mourn, The faint and overborne, Sin-sick and sorrow-worn, Whom Christ doth heal. 2 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With fervent prayer; The wayward and the lost, By restless passions tossed, Redeemed at countless cost From dark despair. 3 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With one accord; With us the work to share, With us reproach to dare, With us the cross to bear, For Christ our Lord. 4 Christ for the world we sing; The world to Christ we bring With joyful song; The new-born souls, whose days, Reclaimed from error's ways, Inspired with hope and praise, To Christ belong. Amen.

Christ in his word draws near

Author: Rev. Thomas T. Lynch Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, in His word draws near; Hush, moaning voice of fear, He bids thee cease; With songs sincere and sweet Let us arise, and meet Him who comes forth to greet Our souls with peace. 2 Rising above thy care, Meet Him as in the air, O weary heart: Put on joy's sacred dress; Lo, as He comes to bless, Quite from thy weariness Set free thou art. 3 For works of love and praise He brings thee summer days, Warm days and bright; Winter is past and gone, Now He, salvation's Sun, Shineth on every one, With mercy's light. 4 From the bright sky above, Clad in His robes of love, 'Tis He, our Lord! Dim earth itself grows clear, As His light draweth near: O let us hush and hear His holy word. Amen.

Christ is made the sure Foundation

Author: John M. Neale Appears in 290 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ is made the sure Foundation, Christ the Head and Cornerstone, Chosen of the Lord, and precious, Binding all the Church in one; Holy Zion's help for ever, And her confidence alone. 2 All that dedicated city, Dearly loved of God on high, In exultant jubilation Pours perpetual melody; God the One in Three adoring In glad hymns eternally. 3 To this temple, where we call Thee, Come, O Lord of Hosts, to-day; With Thy wonted loving-kindness, Hear Thy people as they pray; And Thy fullest benediction Shed within its walls alway. 4 Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants What they ask of Thee to gain, What they gain from Thee, for ever With the blessed to retain, And hereafter in Thy glory Evermore with Thee to reign. 5 Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three and ever One, One in might, and One in glory, While unending ages run. Amen. Text Sources: Latin, 7th cent.; Hy. Anc. and Mod. 1861, alt.

Christ is our Cornerstone

Author: Rev. John Chandler Appears in 188 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ is our Cornerstone, On Him alone we build: With His true saints alone The courts of heaven are filled; On His great love our hopes we place, Of present grace and joys above. 2 O then with hymns of praise These hallowed courts shall ring; Our voices we will raise The Three in One to sing, And thus proclaim in joyful song, Both loud and long, that glorious Name. 3 Here, gracious God, do Thou For evermore draw nigh; Accept each faithful vow, And mark each suppliant sigh; In copious shower on all who pray, Each holy day, Thy blessings pour. 4 Here may we gain from heaven The grace which we implore; And may that grace, once given, Be with us evermore; Until that day when all the blest To endless rest are called away. Amen. Text Sources: Anon. (Latin, 6th or 7th Century)

Christ, of all my hopes the Ground

Author: Rev. Ralph Wardlaw Appears in 173 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, of all my hopes the Ground, Christ the Spring of all my joy, Still in Thee may I be found, Still for Thee my powers employ. 2 Fountain of o'erflowing grace, Freely from Thy fulness give; Till I close my earthly race, May I prove it "Christ to live." 3 Firmly trusting in Thy blood, Nothing shall my heart confound; Safely I shall pass the flood, Safely reach Emmanuel's ground. 4 When I touch the blessèd shore, Back the closing waves shall roll; Death's dark stream shall nevermore Part from Thee my ravished soul. 5 Thus, O thus, an entrance give To the land of cloudless sky; Having known it "Christ to live," Let me know it "gain to die." Amen.

Christ the Lord is risen today

Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Appears in 1,187 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Christ the Lord is risen today," Sons of men and angels say: Raise your joys and triumphs high; Sing, ye heavens, and earth, reply. 2 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal; Christ has burst the gates of hell: Death in vain forbids his rise; Christ has opened Paradise. 3 Lives again our glorious King: Where, O death, is now thy sting? Once He died, our souls to save: Where thy victory, O grave? 3 Soar we now where Christ has led, Following our exalted Head: Made like Him, like Him we rise; Ours the cross, the grave, the skies. 5 Hail the Lord of earth and heaven! Praise to Thee by both be given: Thee we greet triumphant now; Hail, the Resurrection Thou! Amen.

Nearer, my God, to Thee

Author: Sarah F. Adams Appears in 2,507 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! E'en though it be a cross That raiseth me; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 2 Though like the wanderer, The sun gone down, Darkness be over me, My rest a stone; Yet in my dreams I'd be Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 3 There let the way appear Steps unto heaven; All that Thou send'st to me In mercy given: Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 4 Then, with my waking thoughts Bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! 5 Or if on joyful wing, Cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, Upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! Amen.
