"I love thee, Lord!"

Author: Reginald Heber Appears in 30 hymnals First Line: Though sorrows rise and dangers roll Lyrics: 1 Though sorrows rise and dangers roll, In waves of darkness o’er my soul; Though friends are false, and love decays, And few and evil are my days; Though conscience, fiercest of my foes, Swells with remembered guilt my woes; Yet ev’n in nature’s utmost ill, I love thee, Lord, I love thee still! 2 Though Sinai’s curse, in thunder dread, Peals o’er mine unprotected head, And memory points, with busy pain, To grace and mercy given in vain; Till nature, shrinking in the strife, Would fly to hell to ‘scape from life; Though every thought has power to kill, I love thee, Lord, I love thee still! 3 Oh, by the pangs thyself hast borne, The ruffian’s blow, the tyrant’s scorn, By Sinai’s curse, whose dreadful doom Was buried in thy guiltless tomb; By these my pangs, whose healing smart, Thy grace hath planted in my heart— I know, I feel thy bounteous will, Thou lov’st me, Lord, thou lov’st me still!

The name "Jesus"

Author: John M. Neale Appears in 95 hymnals First Line: Jesus!--the very thought is sweet Lyrics: 1 Jesus!--the very thought is sweet; In that dear name all heart-joys meet; But sweeter than sweet honey far The glimpses of his presence are. No word is sung more sweet than this: No name is heard more full of bliss; No thought brings sweeter comfort nigh, Than Jesus, Son of God most high. 2 Jesus, the hope of souls forlorn, How good to them for sin that mourn! To them that seek thee, oh, how kind! But what art thou to them that find? Jesus, thou sweetness, pure, and blest, Truth's fountain, light of souls distressed, Surpassing all that heart requires, Exceeding all that soul desires! 3 No tongue of mortal can express, No letters write, its blessedness: Alone who hath thee in his heart Knows, love of Jesus, what thou art, We follow Jesus now, and raise The voice of prayer, the hymn of praise, That he at last may make us meet With him to gain the heavenly seat.

The Days And Years Of Time Are Fled

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The days and years of time are fled, Sun, moon, and stars have shone their last; The earth and sea gave up their dead, Then vanished, at th’archangel’s blast; All secret things have been revealed, Judgment is passed, the sentence sealed, And man to all eternity What he is now henceforth must be. 2 From Adam to his youngest heir, Not one escaped that muster roll, Each, as if he alone were there, Stood up, and won or lost his soul; These from the Judge’s presence go Down into everlasting woe; Vengeance hath barred the gates of hell, The scenes within no tongue can tell. 3 But lo! far off the righteous pass To glory from the King’s right hand; In silence, on the sea of glass, Heaven’s numbers without number stand, While He who bore the cross lays down His priestly robe and victor crown; The mediatorial reign complete, All things are put beneath His feet. 4 Then every eye in Him shall see— While thrones and powers before Him fall— The fullness of the Deity, Where God Himself is all in all; O how eternity shall ring With the first note the ransomed sing! While in that strain all voices blend, Which once begun shall never end. 5 In that unutterable song, Shall I employ immortal breath? Or with the wicked borne along, For ever die "the second death?" Jesus, my life, my light, Thou art; Thy word is in my mouth, my heart: Lord, I believe, my spirit save From sinking lower than the grave.
