O Saving Victim, op'ning wide

Author: E. Caswall; T. Aquinas Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Saving Victim, op'ning wide The gate of heav'n to man below, Our foes press on from ev'ry side, Thine aid supply, Thy strength bestow. 2 All praise and thanks to Thee ascend For evermore, blest One in Three; O grant us life that shall not end, In our true native land with Thee.

High on His Everlasting Throne

Author: Augustus Spangenberg; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 73 hymnals Lyrics: 1. High on His everlasting throne, The King of saints His work surveys; Marks the dear souls He calls His own, And smiles on the peculiar race. 2. He rests well pleased their toils to see; Beneath His easy yoke they move; With all their heart and strength agree In the sweet labor of His love. 3. See where the servants of their Lord, A busy multitude, appear; For Jesus day and night employed, His heritage they toil to clear. 4. Jesus their toil delighted sees, Their industry vouchsafes to crown; He kindly gives the wished increase, And sends the promised blessing down. 5. O multiply the sower’s seed, And fruit we every hour shall bear; Throughout the world Thy Gospel spread, Thine everlasting truth declare! Used With Tune: ST. VINCENT Text Sources: Appendix to the Moravian Gesang-Buch, 1737, number 1004; Translation: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742
