O Come Let Us Sing To The Lord
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O come let us sing to the Lord,
In God our salvation rejoice;
In psalms of thanksgiving record
His praise with one spirit, one voice!
For Jehovah is king, and He reigns,
The God of all gods on His throne,
The strength of the hills He maintains,
The ends of the earth are His own.
2 The sea is Jehovah’s; He made
The tide its dominion to know;
The land is Jehovah’s; He laid
Its solid foundations below;
O come let us worship and kneel
Before our creator, our God!
The people who serve Him with zeal,
The flock whom He guides with His rod.
3 As Moses the fathers of old
Through sea and the wilderness led,
His wonderful works we behold,
With manna from Heaven are fed;
Today, let us hearken, today,
To the voice that speaks from above,
And all His commandments obey,
For all His commandments are love. Used With Tune: ELEZ
O Come Let Us Sing To The Lord
No Prophet, Nor Dreamers Of Dreams
Author: Joseph Hart Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: No prophet, nor dreamer of dreams Lyrics: 1 No prophet, nor dreamer of dreams,
No master of plausible speech,
To live like an angel who seems,
Or like an apostle to preach;
No tempter, without or within,
No spirit, tho’ ever so bright,
That comes crying out against sin,
And looks like an angel of light;
2 Tho’ reason, tho’ fitness he urge,
Or plead with the words of a friend,
Or wonders of argument forge,
Or deep revelations pretend,
Should meet with a moment’s regard,
But rather be boldly withstood,
If any thing, easy or hard,
He teach, save the Lamb and His blood.
3 Remember, O Christian, with heed,
When sunk under sentence of death,
How first thou from bondage wast freed;
Say, was it by works, or by faith?
On Christ thy affections then fixed,
What conjugal truth didst thou vow!
With Him was there any thing mixed?
Then what wouldst thou mix with Him now?
4 If close to the Lord thou wouldst cleave,
Depend on His promise alone;
His righteousness wouldst thou receive,
Then learn to renounce all thy own;
The faith of a Christian indeed
Is more than mere notion or whim;
United to Jesus, his head,
He draws life and virtue from Him.
5 Deceived by the father of lies,
Blind guides cry, "Lo here!" and "Lo there!"
By these our Redeemer us tries,
And warns us of such to beware.
Poor comfort to mourners they give,
Who set us to labor in vain;
And strive, with a "Do this and live"
To drive us to Egypt again.
6 But what says our Shepherd divine?
For His blessèd word we should keep;
"This flock has My Father made Mine,
I lay down My life for My sheep;
’Tis life everlasting I give,
My blood was the price that it cost;
Not one that on Me shall believe,
Shall ever be finally lost."
7 This God is the God we adore,
Our faithful, unchangeable friend,
Whose love is as large as His power,
And neither knows measure nor end;
’Tis Jesus, the first and the last,
Whose Spirit shall guide us safe home;
We’ll praise Him for all that is past,
And trust Him for all that’s to come. Used With Tune: ELEZ Text Sources: Hymns Composed on Various Subjects, 1822

My Gracious Redeemer I Love
Author: Benjamin Francis Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 199 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 My gracious Redeemer I love,
His praises aloud I’ll proclaim,
And join with the armies above,
To shout His adorable name.
To gaze on His glories divine
Shall be my eternal employ;
To see them incessantly shine,
My boundless, ineffable joy.
2 He freely redeemed with His blood,
My soul from the confines of hell,
To live on the smiles of my God,
And in His sweet presence to dwell,
To shine with the angels of light,
With saints and with seraphs to sing,
To view, with eternal delight,
My Jesus, my Savior, my king.
3 In Meschech, as yet, I reside,
A darksome and restless abode!
Molested with foes on each side,
And longing to dwell with my God.
O, when shall my spirit exchange
This cell of corruptible clay,
For mansions celestial, and range
Thro’ realms of ineffable day.
4 My glorious Redeemer, I long
To see Thee descend on the cloud,
Amidst the bright numberless throng,
And mix with the triumphing crowd;
O, when wilt Thou bid me ascend,
To join in Thy praises above,
To gaze on Thee, world without end,
And feast on Thy ravishing love.
5 Nor sorrow, nor sickness, nor pain,
Nor sin, nor temptation, nor fear,
Shall ever molest me again,
Perfection of glory reigns there.
This soul and this body shall shine
In robes of salvation and praise,
And banquet on pleasures divine,
Where God His full beauty displays.
6 Ye palaces, scepters and crowns,
Your pride with disdain I survey;
Your pomps are but shadows and sounds,
And pass in a moment away;
The crown that my Savior bestows,
Yon permanent sun shall outshine;
My joy everlastingly flows,
My God, my Redeemer, is mine. Used With Tune: ELEZ Text Sources: Rippon's Selections, 1787
