Come, ye weary sinners, come

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 106 hymnals Used With Tune: GUIDE

Author: Marcus M. Wells Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 686 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, faithful Guide, Ever near the Christian’s side: Gently lead us by the hand, Pilgrims in a desert land. Weary souls fore’er rejoice While they hear that sweetest voice, Whisp'ring softly, “Wand'rer, come, Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 2 Ever present, truest Friend, Ever near Thine aid to lend, Leave us not to doubt and fear, Groping on in darkness here; When the storms are raging sore, Hearts grow faint, and hopes give o’er, Whisper softly, “Wand'rer, come, Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 3 When our days of toil shall cease, Waiting still for sweet release, Nothing left but heav'n and prayer, Trusting that our names are there, Wading deep the dismal flood, Pleading naught but Jesus’ blood, Whisper softly, “Wand'rer, come, Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” Topics: Pentecost - Holy Spirit Used With Tune: WELLS

At The Birth Of Christ Our King

Author: William Gadsby Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At the birth of Christ our king, Angels made the heavens ring, Singing with a solemn joy, Glory to the Lord on high. 2 In angelic heights of bliss, They His majesty confess; Ravished with so grand a scene, They renew their songs to Him. 3 Glory in the highest height, Blazing with majestic light, Shine in David’s root and rod, The incarnate Son of God. 4 Nature in its brightest glow, Never can such glory show; Here alone, the great Three-One, Put Their brightest glories on. 5 O the wonders of God’s ways, Here I AM, Himself displays; And in spite of hell and sin, Here His honors He’ll maintain. 6 Sinners here by faith may view, What Omnipotence can do; And in measures sweetly trace, The rich treasures of this grace. 7 Come, ye mourning souls, rejoice, Look, and with a cheerful voice, Sing the honors of your God, Blazing in th’incarnate word. 8 Soon the whole elect shall know All the glory God can show; And in bliss immortal sing, Hallelujahs to their king.

Hark! A Voice Divides the Sky

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 77 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Hark! A voice divides the sky, happy are the faithful dead! In the Lord who sweetly die, they from all their toils are freed; Them the Spirit hath declared blessed, unutterably blessed; Jesus is their great reward, Jesus is their endless rest. 2. Followed by their works, they go where their Head has gone before; Reconciled by grace below, grace has opened mercy’s door; Justified through faith alone, here they knew their sins forgiv’n, Here they laid their burden down, hallowed, and made fit for Heav’n. 3. Who can now lament the lot of a saint in Christ deceased? Let the world, who know us not, call us hopeless and unblessed: When from flesh the spirit freed hastens homeward to return, Mortals cry, A man is dead! Angels sing, A child is born! 4. Born into the world above, they our happy brother greet, Bear him to the throne of love, place him at the Savior’s feet; Jesus smiles, and says, Well done, good and faithful servant thou; Enter, and receive thy crown, reign with Me triumphant now. 5. Angels catch th’approving sound, bow, and bless the just award; Hail the heir with glory crowned, now rejoicing with his Lord: Fuller joys ordained to know, waiting for the general doom, When th’archangel’s trump shall blow, Rise, ye dead, to judgment come!

From the LORD comes all my aid, who the heavens and earth has made. He will guard through dangers all, will not let you slip or fall. He who safe his people keeps never slumbers, never sleeps. 2 Your protector is the LORD; shade for you he will afford. Neither sun nor moon shall smite; God shall guard by day and night.
