The Powers Of Earth And Hell Combine
Author: Henry F. Lyte Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 The powers of earth and hell combine
With Jesus war to wage;
God laughs to scorn their mad design,
And foils their impious rage.
2 Vain are the brutal pains they spend
His purpose to defeat;
Their wrongs and insults only tend
His conquests to complete.
3 He triumphed on the accursèd tree,
He burst the guarded grave;
Then rose on high, by God’s decree,
The world to sway and save.
4 Kings of the earth, your monarch learn;
O kiss the Son of God;
Nor bid His golden scepter turn
Into an iron rod. Used With Tune: CROWLE Text Sources: The Spirit of the Psalms, 1834
The Powers Of Earth And Hell Combine
I Am Not Worthy, Holy Lord
Author: Henry Williams Baker, (1821-1877) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I am not worthy, holy Lord,
l That Thou should'st come to me;
Speak but the word: one gracious word
Can set the sinner free.
2 I am not worthy; cold and bare
The lodging of my soul;
How canst Thou deign to enter there?
Lord, speak, and make me whole.
3 I am not worthy; yet, my God,
How can I say Thee nay,
Thee who didst give Thy flesh and blood
My ransom-price to pay?
4 O come! in this sweet morning hour
Feed me with food divine,
And fill with all Thy love and power
This worthless heart of mine.
Amen.

Jesus, We Own Thy Saving Power
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, we own Thy saving power,
And Thy victorious hand;
Hell’s legions tremble at Thy feet,
And fly at Thy command.
2 O’er souls, by passion’s uproar filled
With anarchy unknown,
The nobler powers, restored by Thee,
Ascend their peaceful throne.
3 No more they rend their clothing off,
No more their wounds repeat;
But gentle and composed they wait
Attentive at Thy feet.
4 O’er thousands more, where Satan rules,
May we such triumphs see;
And be their rescued souls and ours
Devoted, Lord, to Thee.

Jesus, We Own Thy Saving Power
Is There A World Of Bitter Woe?
Author: William H. Bathurst Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Is there a world of bitter woe Lyrics: 1 Is there a world of bitter woe,
And never ending pain;
Where tears of deepest anguish flow
For ever—but in vain?
2 And it is written in the Word
Of God, who cannot lie,
That sinners who deny the Lord,
Must go there when they die?
3 O then, what more than madness reigns
Amongst our guilty race!
Love we to dwell in burning pains,
Beyond the reach of grace;
4 Where God shall bid His vengeance fall,
His terrors still increase;
And hope, that whispers peace to all,
Shall never whisper peace?
5 Dare we the word of truth despise,
The wrath of God defy?
And proudly scorning to be wise,
In sin and ruin lie?
6 Lord, teach my stubborn heart to feel
The wonders of Thy love;
Ere the last trumpet’s solemn peal
Sounds through the vault above;
7 O may I learn, while yet brief space
Thy mercy doth afford;
To trust the promise of Thy grace,
And live upon Thy Word:
8 So shall that voice which wakes the dead,
And tells of judgment near,
Which fills a guilty world with dread,
Be music to mine ear.
9 So shall I rest from sorrow free,
My fears and trials o’er;
So pass through life’s tempestuous sea
Safe to the happy shore. Used With Tune: CROWLE Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns, 1831

When Christ to Judgment Shall Descend
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1. When Christ to judgment shall descend,
And saints surround their Lord,
He calls the nations to attend,
And hear His awful word.
2. “Not for the want of bullocks slain
Will I the world reprove;
Altars, and rites, and forms are vain,
Without the fire of love.
3. “And what have hypocrites to do
To bring their sacrifice?
They call My statutes just and true,
But deal in theft and lies.
4. Could you expect to ’scape My sight,
And sin without control?
But I shall bring your crimes to light,
With anguish in your soul.
5. Consider, ye that slight the Lord,
Before His wrath appear,
If once you fall beneath His sword,
There’s no deliverer there. Used With Tune: CROWLE Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
When Christ to Judgment Shall Descend
O thou in all thy might so far
Author: Frederick Hosmer, 1840-1929 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 88 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O THOU in all thy might so far,
In all thy love so near,
Beyond the range of sun and star,
And yet beside us here.
2 What heart can comprehend thy name,
Or searching find thee out,
Who art within, a quickening flame,
A presence round about?
3 Yet though I know thee but in part,
I ask not, Lord, for more;
Enough for me to know thou art,
To love thee and adore.
4 And dearer than all things I know
Is childlike faith to me,
That makes the darkest way I go
An open path to thee.
