Christ our Example

Author: Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 195 hymnals Scripture: John 13:15 First Line: And is the gospel peace and love Lyrics: 1 And is the gospel, peace and love? Such let our conversation be: The serpent blended with the dove, Wisdom and meek simplicity. 2 Whene'er the angry passions rise, And tempt our thoughts or tongues to strife, To Jesus let us lift our eyes, Bright pattern of the Christian life! 3 O how benevolent and kind! How mild! how ready to forgive! Be this the temper of our mind, And these the rules by which we live. 4 To do his heavenly Father's will, Was his employment and delight; Humility and holy zeal Shone thro' his life, divinely bright! 5 Dispensing good where'er he came, The labours of his life were love; O, if we love the Savior's name, Let his divine example move. 6 Thy fair example may we trace, To teach us what we ought to be; Make us by thy transforming grace, Dear Saviour, daily more like thee.

See what a living stone

Appears in 137 hymnals Scripture: John 13 Lyrics: 1 See what a living Stone the Builders did refuse; Yet God hath built his Church thereon, in Spite of envious Jews. 2 The Scribe and angry Priest reject thine only Son; Yet on this Rock shall Zion rest, as the chief Corner-Stone. 3 The Work, O Lord, is thine, and wondrous in our Eyes: This Day declares it all divine, this Day did Jesus rise. 4 This is the glorious Day that our Redeemer made; Let us rejoice, and sing and pray, let all the Church be glad. 5 Hosanna to the King of David's Royal Blood; Bless him, ye Saints; he comes to bring Salvation from your God. 6 We bless thine holy Word, which all this Grace displays; And offer on thine Altar, Lord, our Sacrifice of Praise.

A pilgrim through this lonely world

Author: Denny Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 88 hymnals Scripture: John 13:16 Lyrics: 1 A pilgrim through this lonely world, The blessed Saviour passed: A mourner all his life was he, A dying Lamb at last. 2 That tender heart that felt for all, For all its life-blood gave; It found on earth no resting-place, Save only in the grave. 3 Such was our Lord; and shall we fear The cross, with all its scorn?
