Where but with Thee, whose open door Invites the helpless and the poor? 3 Did ever mourner plead with Thee And Thou refuse that mourner’s plea? Does not the word still fixed remain That none shall seek Thy face in vain? 4 Fair is the lot that’s cast for me; I have an Advocate with Thee. They whom the world caresses most Have no such privilege to boast. 5 Poor thou I am, despised, forgot, Yet God, my God, forgets me not; And he is safe, and must succeed, For whom the Lord vouchsafes to plead. 6 Then hear, O Lord, my humble cry And bend on me Thy pitying eye.

O Worship the King, All Glorious Above!

Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,142 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 46:1 Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above! O gratefully sing God's power and God’s love: our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days, pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise. 2 O tell of God's might; O sing of God's grace, whose robe is the light, whose canopy space, whose chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form; and bright is God's path on the wings of the storm. 3 The earth with its store of wonders untold, Almighty, your power has founded of old; established it fast by a changeless decree, and round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea. 4 Your bountiful care what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air; it shines in the light; it streams from the hills; it descends to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in you do we trust, nor find you to fail; your mercies, how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.

Jerusalem the Golden

Author: Bernard of Cluny (12th cent.); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 911 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 46 Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem the golden, with milk and honey blessed, beneath thy contemplation sink heart and voice oppressed. I know not, oh, I know not, what joys await us there; what radiancy of glory, what bliss beyond compare. 2 They stand, those halls of Zion, all jubilant with song, and bright with many an angel, and all the martyr throng. The Prince is ever in them, the daylight is serene; the pastures of the blessed are decked in glorious sheen. 3 There is the throne of David, and there, from care released, the shout of them that triumph, the song of them that feast; and they who with their Leader have conquered in the fight, forever and forever are clad in robes of white. 4 O sweet and blessed country, the home of God's elect; O dear and future vision, that eager hearts expect: even now by faith we see thee, even here thy walls discern; to thee our thoughts are kindled; for thee our spirits yearn.
