Savior, Whom Our Hearts Adore
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Savior, whom our hearts adore,
To bless our earth again,
Now assume Thy royal power,
And o’er the nations reign;
Christ, the world’s desire and hope,
Power complete to Thee is given;
Set the last great empire up,
Eternal Lord of Heaven.
2. Where they all Thy laws have spurned,
Where they Thy name profane,
Where the ruined world hath mourned
With blood of millions slain,
Open there the ethereal scene,
Claim the heathen tribes for Thine;
There the endless reign begin
With majesty divine.
3. Universal Savior, Thou
Wilt all Thy creatures bless;
Every knee to Thee shall bow,
And every tongue confess:
None shall in Thy mount destroy;
War shall then be learnt no more:
Saints shall their great King enjoy,
And all mankind adore. Used With Tune: WELD Text Sources: Hymns for the Nation, 1762
Savior, Whom Our Hearts Adore
Give Me the Enlarged Desire
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: Give me the enlarged desire,
And open, Lord, my soul,
Thy own fullness to require,
And comprehend the whole;

My soul forever fill! Used With Tune: WELD Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Scripture, 1762
Give Me the Enlarged Desire
Dreadful, Pride Chastising Word
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Dreadful, pride chastising word
Of surest prophecy!
"Two in three that call Thee Lord,
Shall be cut off and die."
Who should then of grace presume?
Father, in Thine hands I am,
Save me from th’apostate’s doom,
I ask in Jesu’s name.
2 Need I then, my God, despair
Thy favor to retain?
Lost if two in three there are,
The third shall still remain;
Of the third distinguished part,
That I may live forever one,
Stamp Thine image on my heart,
And join me to Thy Son. Used With Tune: WELD Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Holy Scripture (Bristol, England: E. Farley, 1762)

Praise the Lord, who reigns above
Meet and Right It Is to Sing
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Meet and right it is to sing
In every time and place,
Glory to our heavenly King,
The God of truth and grace:
Join we then with sweet accord,
All in one thanksgiving join,
Holy, holy, holy Lord
Eternal praise be Thine!
2. Thee, the first-born sons of light,
In choral symphonies,
Praise by day, day without night,
And never, never cease:
Angels and archangels all
Praise the mystic Three in One;
Sing, and stop, and gaze, and fall
O’erwhelmed before Thy throne.
3. Vying with that happy choir,
Who chant Thy praise above,
We on eagles’ wings aspire,
The wings of faith and love;
Thee they sing with glory crowned,
We extol the slaughtered Lamb;
Lower if our voices sound,
Our subject is the same.
4. Father God, Thy love we praise,
Which gave Thy Son to die;
Jesus, full of truth and grace,
Alike we glorify;
Spirit, Comforter divine,
Praise by all to Thee be given;
Till we in full chorus join,
And earth is turned to Heaven. Used With Tune: WELD Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1749, volume II, number 97
Meet and Right It Is to Sing
Glorious God, Accept a Heart
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Glorious God, accept a heart
That pants to sing Thy praise!
Thou without beginning art,
And without end of days:
Thou, a Spirit invisible,
Dost to none Thy fullness show;
None Thy majesty can tell,
Or all Thy Godhead know.
2. All Thine attributes we own,
Thy wisdom, power, and might;
Happy in Thyself alone,
In goodness infinite,
Thou Thy goodness hast displayed,
On Thine every work impressed;
Lov’st whate’er Thy hands have made,
But man Thou lov’st the best.
3. Willing Thou that all should know
Thy saving truth, and live,
Dost to each, or bliss or woe,
With strictest justice give:
Thou with perfect righteousness
Renderest every man his due;
Faithful in Thy promises,
And in Thy threatenings, too.
4. Thou art merciful to all
Who truly turn to Thee;
Hear me then for pardon call,
And show Thy grace to me;
Me, through mercy reconciled,
Me, for Jesus’ sake forgiv’n,
Me receive, Thy favored child
To sing Thy praise in Heav’n. Used With Tune: WELD Text Sources: Hymns for Children, 1763
