Nature with open volume stands
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 146 hymnals Scripture: Romans 11:33-34 Lyrics: 1 Nature with open volume stands
to spread her Maker's praise abroad,
and every labour of his hands
shows something worthy of our God.
2 But in the grace that rescued man
his brightest form of glory shines;
here on the cross 'tis fairest drawn
in precious blood and crimson lines.
3 Here his whole name appears complete;
nor wit can guess, nor reason prove
which of the letters best is writ,
the power, the wisdom, or the love.
4 O the sweet wonders of that cross
where God the Saviour loved and died;
her noblest life my spirit draws
from his dear wounds and bleeding side.
5 I would for ever speak his name
in sounds to mortal ears unknown,
with angels join to praise the Lamb,
and worship at his Father's throne. Topics: Church Year Good Friday; Good Friday; Jesus Names and images for; Praise; Proper 11 Year C Used With Tune: WARRINGTON

'Tis winter now; the fallen snow
Author: Samuel Longfellow (1819-1892) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 63 hymnals Scripture: Romans 11:29 Lyrics: 1 'Tis winter now; the fallen snow
has left the heavens all coldly clear;
through leafless boughs the sharp winds blow,
and all the earth lies dead and drear.
2 And yet God's love is not withdrawn;
his life within the keen air breathes;
his beauty paints the crimson dawn,
and clothes each branch with glittering wreaths.
3 And though abroad the sharp winds blow,
and skies are chill, and frosts are keen,
home closer draws her circle now,
and warmer glows her light within.
4 O God, you give the winter's cold,
as well as summer's joyous rays,
you warmly in your love enfold,
and keep us through life's wintry days. Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in times and seasons; Providence; Winter Used With Tune: O WALY WALY

Author: Samuel Trevor Francis, 1834-1925 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 57 hymnals Scripture: Romans 11:33-36 Lyrics: 1 O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean
in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me,
is the current of thy love–
leading onward, leading homeward,
to thy glorious rest above!
2 O the deep, deep love of Jesus–
spread his praise from shore to shore!
How he loves us, ever loves us,
changes never, nevermore!
How he watches o'er his loved ones,
died to call them all his own;
how for them he's interceding,
watching o'er them from the throne!
3 O the deep, deep love of Jesus,
love of every love the best!
'Tis an ocean vast of blessing,
'tis a haven sweet of rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus–
'tis a heaven of heavens to me;
and it lifts me up to glory,
for it lifts me up to thee! Used With Tune: EBENEZER

How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.7.7.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Romans 11:29 Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call:
to live according to your word,
and daily learn, refreshed, restored
that you are Lord of all,
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear,
if worldly pressures fray the mind,
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We marvel how your saints become
in hindrances more sure;
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, Lord, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines or ventures new,
may we not cease to look to you,
the cross you hung upon--
all you endeavored done. Topics: God in Society Work and Leisure; Anxiety; Church Ministry and Ministers; Labor Used With Tune: REPTON
