Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 66 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of peace, and God of love!
we own your power to save,
that power by which our Shepherd rose
victorious o’er the grave.
2 Him from the dead you brought again,
when, by his sacred blood,
confirmed and sealed forevermore
the eternal covenant stood.
3 O may your Spirit seal our souls,
and mould them to your will,
that our weak hearts no more may stray,
but keep your precepts still;
4 That to perfection's sacred height
we nearer still may rise,
and all we think, and all we do,
be pleasing in your eyes.

To Him that loved the souls of men

To Him that loved the souls of men
No Strength of Nature Can Suffice
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1. No strength of nature can suffice
To serve the Lord aright;
And what she has, she misapplies,
For want of clearer light.
2. How long beneath the Law I lay
In bondage and distress!
I toiled the precept to obey,
But toiled without success.
3. Then to abstain from outward sin
Was more than I could do;
Now, if I feel its power within,
I feel I hate it too.
4. Then all my servile works were done
A righteousness to raise;
Now, freely chosen in the Son,
I freely choose His ways.
5. What shall I do was then the word,
That I may worthier grow?
What shall I render to the Lord?
Is my inquiry now.
6. To see the Law by Christ fulfilled,
And hear His pardoning voice;
Changes a slave into a child,
And duty into choice. Used With Tune: ABERDEEN Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 62

How glad I was to hear men say
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 122 Used With Tune: ST PAUL Text Sources: Based on Scottish Psalter 1650
How glad I was to hear men say
Come, Ye Redeemed of the Lord
Author: Joseph Hart Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, ye redeemèd of the Lord,
Your grateful tribute bring;
And celebrate with one accord,
The birthday of our king.
2 Let us with humble hearts repair—
Faith will point out the road—
To little Bethlehem; and there
Adore our infant God.
3 In swaddling bands the Savior view!
Let none this weakness scorn;
The feeblest heart shall hell subdue,
Where Jesus Christ is born.
4 No pomp adorns, no sweets perfume,
The place where Christ is laid;
The stable serves Him for His room;
A manger is His bed.
5 The crowded inn, like sinners’ hearts—
O ignorance extreme!
For other guests of various sorts
Had room; but none for Him.
6 But see what different thoughts arise
In ours and angels’ breasts:
To hail His birth they left the skies;
We lodged Him with the beasts.
7 Yet let believers cease their fears,
Nor envy heav’nly powers;
If sinless innocence be theirs,
Redemption all is ours.

Psalm 122
Ho, ye that thirst! to you my grace
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 8 Ho, ye that thirst! to you my grace
shall hidden streams disclose,
and open full the sacred spring,
whence life for ever flows.
9 Bless’d is the man that overcomes;
I’ll own him for a son;
a rich inheritance rewards
the conquests he hath won.
10 But bloody hands and hearts unclean,
and all the lying race,
the faithless, and the scoffing crew,
who spurn at offer'11d grace;
11 They, seiz'd by justice, shall be doom'd
in dark abyss to lie,
and in the fiery burning lake
the second death shall die.
12 O may we stand before the Lamb,
when earth and seas are fled,
and hear the judge pronounce our name,
with blessings on our head! Scripture: Revelation 21:1-9 Used With Tune: ST PAUL (ABERDEEN)
Ho, ye that thirst! to you my grace
