Blest Be the Tie That Binds
Author: John Fawcett Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,273 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:11 Lyrics: 1. Blest be the tie that binds
our hearts in Christian love;
the fellowship of kindred minds
is like to that above.
2. Before our Father's throne
we pour our ardent prayers;
our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
our comforts and our cares.
3. We share each other's woes,
our mutual burdens bear;
and often for each other flows
the sympathizing tear.
4. When we asunder part,
it gives us inward pain;
but we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.

Broad is the road that leads to death
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 456 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:12 Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death,
And thousands walk together there;
But wisdom shows a narrow path,
With here and there a traveler.
2 Deny thyself, and take thy cross,
Is the Redeemer's great command;
Nature must count her gold but dross,
If she would gain this heavenly land.
3 The fearful soul that tires and faints,
And walks the way of God no more,
Is but esteemed almost a saint,
And makes his own destruction sure.
4 Lord! let not all my hopes be vain;
Create my heart entirely new,--
Which hypocrites could ne'er attain;
Which false apostates never knew. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings ; The Broad Way to Death

2 The Lord, who left the heav'ns
our life and peace to bring,
to dwell in lowliness with us,
our pattern and our King.
3 Still to the lowly soul
he doth himself impart,
and for his dwelling and his throne
chooseth the pure in heart.
4 Lord, we thy presence seek;
may ours this blessing be;
give us a pure and lowly heart,
a temple meet for thee. Topics: Faith, Trust and Commitment; Hope and Consolation; Year A All Saints' Day; Year A Proper 21; Year B Palm Sunday: Liturgy of the Passion Used With Tune: FRANCONIA Text Sources: Vs. 2 and 4: William John Hall's "Psalms and Hymns" (1836), alt.

Beautiful Savior
Bright king of glory, dreadful God!
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 99 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 2:6 Lyrics: 1 Bright king of glory, dreadful God!
Our spirits bow before thy feet:
To thee we lift an humble thought,
And worship at thine awful seat.
2 A thousand seraphs strong and bright
Stand round the glorious Deity;
But who, among those sons of light,
Pretends comparison with thee?
3 Yet there is One of human frame,
Jesus, arrayed in flesh and blood,
Thinks it no robbery to claim
A full equality with God.
4 Then let the name of Christ our King
With equal honors be adored;
His praise let every angel sing,
And all the nations own the Lord.

and usher in the morning;
you shepherds, shrink not with affright,
but hear the angel's warning.
This child, now weak in infancy,
our confidence and joy shall be,
the power of Satan breaking,
our peace eternal making.
[ 2 This night of wonder, night of joy,
was born the Christ, our brother;
he comes, not mighty to destroy,
to bid us love each other.
How could he quit his kingly state
for such a world of greed and hate?
What deep humiliation
secured the world's salvation!
3 Come, dearest child, into our hearts,
and leave your crib behind you!
Let this be where the new life starts
for all who seek and find you.
To you be honor, thanks, and praise,
for all your gifts this time of grace:
come, conquer and deliver
this world, and us, forever.] Topics: Jesus Christ Self-humiliation; Christmas Season; Jesus Christ Self-humiliation; Satan Used With Tune: ERMUNTRE DICH
