O Spirit of the living God

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 373 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God, in all the fullness of Your grace, wherever human feet have trod, descend upon our fallen race. 2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love to preach the reconciling word; anoint with power from heaven above whenever gospel truth is heard. 3 Let darkness turn to radiant light, confusion vanish from your path; souls without strength inspire with might: let mercy triumph over wrath. 4 O Spirit of our God, prepare the whole wide world the Lord to meet; breathe out new life, like morning air, till hearts of stone begin to beat. 5 Baptize the nations; far and near the triumphs of the cross record; till Christ in glory shall appear and every people call Him Lord!

The Savior, When to Heaven He Rose

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 52 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Savior, when to Heaven He rose, In splendid triumph o’er His foes, Scattered His gifts on men below, And wide His royal bounties flow. 2. Hence sprung the Apostles’ honored name; Sacred beyond heroic fame; In lowlier forms, before our eyes, Pastors from hence, and teachers rise. 3. From Christ their varied gifts derive, And fed by Christ their graces live; While guarded by His mighty hand, Midst all the rage of hell they stand. 4. So shall the bright succession run, Through the last courses of the sun; While unborn churches by their care Shall rise and flourish large and fair. 5. Jesus, now teach our hearts to know The spring whence all blessings flow; Pastors and people shout Thy praise Through the long round of endless days.

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 91 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye faithful souls, who Jesus know, If risen indeed with Him ye are, Superior to the joys below, His resurrection's power declare. 2 Your faith by holy tempers prove, By actions show your sins forgiven; And seek the glorious things above, And follow Christ, your Head, to heaven. 3 There your exalted Saviour see, Seated at God's right hand again, In all His Father's majesty, And everlasting might, to reign. 4 Your real life, with Christ concealed, Deep in the Father's bosom lies; And, glorious as your Head revealed, Ye soon shall meet Him in the skies.
