Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle
Author: Venantius Honorius Fortunatus; John Mason Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18-24 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle;
tell the triumph far and wide;
tell aloud the wondrous story
of the cross, the Crucified;
tell how Christ, the world's redeemer,
vanquished death the day he died.
2 God in mercy saw us fallen,
sunk in shame and misery,
felled to death in Eden's garden,
where in pride we claimed the tree;
then another tree was chosen,
which the world from death would free.
3 Tell how, when at length the fullness
of the appointed time was come,
Christ, the Word, was born of woman,
left for us the heavenly home,
blazed the path of true obedience,
shone as light amidst the gloom.
4 Thirty years among us dwelling,
Jesus went from Nazareth,
destined, dedicated, willing,
did his work and met his death;
like a lamb he humbly yielded
on the cross his dying breath.
5 Faithful cross, true sign of triumph,
be for all the noblest tree;
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit your equal be;
symbol of the world's redemption,
for your burden makes us free.

Hymn 33
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 First Line: Shall atheists dare insult the cross Lyrics:
Shall atheists dare insult the cross
Of our Redeemer, God?
Shall infidels reproach his laws,
Or trample on his blood?
What if he choose mysterious ways
To cleanse us from our faults?
May not the works of sovereign grace
Transcend our feeble thoughts?
What if his gospel bids us fight
With flesh, and self, and sin,
The prize is most divinely bright
That we are called to win.
What if the foolish and the poor
His glorious grace partake,
This but confirms his truth the more,
For so the prophets spake.
Do some that own his sacred name
Indulge their souls in sin?
Jesus should never bear the blame,
His laws are pure and clean.
Then let our faith grow firm and strong,
Our lips profess his word;
Nor blush nor fear to walk among
The men that love the Lord.

Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:30-31 First Line: My God, assist me, while I raise Lyrics: 1 My God, assist me, while I raise
An anthem of harmonious praise;
My heart thy wonders shall proclaim,
And spread its banners in thy name.
2 In Christ I view a store divine;
My father, all that store is thine;
By thee prepar'd, by thee bestow'd;
Hail to the savior, and the God!
3 When gloomy shades my soul o'erspread,
"Let there be light," th' Almighty said;
And Christ, my sun, his beams displays,
And scatters round celestial rays.
4 Condemn'd thy criminal I stood,
And awful justice ask'd my blood;
That welcome Savior from thy throne
Brought righteousness and pardon down.
5 My soul was all o'erspread with sin,
And lo, his grace hath made me clean:
He rescues from the infernal foe,
And full redemption will bestow.
6 Ye saints, assist my grateful tongue;
Ye angels, warble back my song:
For love like this demands the praise
Of heavenly harps, and endless days. Topics: Characters and Representations of Christ Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption; Christ Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, etc
