At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel, 1817-1877 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 264 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 3:15 Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow,
every tongue confess him King of glory now.
'Tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord,
who from the beginning was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season to receive a name
from the lips of sinners unto whom he came.
Faithfully he bore it, spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious when from death he passed.
3 In your hearts enthrone him, there let him subdue
all that is not holy, all that is not true.
Crown him as your sovereign in temptation's hour,
let his will enfold you in its mighty power.
4 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again
with the Father's glory, when he comes to reign.
For all earthly powers soon to him must bow,
so let us confess him King of glory now. Topics: Adoration Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON

Ah, Holy Jesus, How Hast Thou Offended
Author: Johann Heermann; Robert Bridges Meter: 11.11.11.5 Appears in 145 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 3:18 Lyrics: 1 Ah, holy Jesus, how hast Thou offended,
That man to judge Thee hath in hate pretended?
By foes derided, by Thine own rejected,
O most afflicted!
2 Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon Thee?
Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone Thee!
'Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied Thee:
I crucified Thee.
3 For me, kind Jesus, was Thy incarnation,
Thy mortal sorrow, and Thy life's oblation;
Thy death of anguish and Thy bitter passion,
For my salvation.
4 Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay Thee,
I do adore Thee, and will ever pray Thee,
Think on Thy pity and Thy love unswerving,
Not my deserving.
Amen. Topics: Adoration and Praise; Christ Passion; Christ Atonement; Cross, The; Humility; Penitence; Jesus Christ His Passion and Atonement Used With Tune: HERZLIEBSTER JESU
Ah, Holy Jesus, How Hast Thou Offended
And did the holy and the just
Author: Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 123 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 3:18 Lyrics: 1 And did the holy and the just,
The sovereign of the skies,
Stoop down to wretchedness and dust,
That guilty man might rise?
2 Yes, the Redeemer left his throne--
His radiant throne on high--
Surprising mercy! love unknown!
To suffer, bleed, and die.
3 To dwell with misery here below,
The Saviour left the skies,
And sank to wretchedness and woe,
That worthless man might rise.
4 He took the dying traitor's place,
And suffered in his stead:
For sinful man--oh, wondrous grace!
For sinful man he bled.
5 O Lord, what heavenly wonders dwell
In thine atoning blood!
By this are sinners saved from hell,
And rebels brought to God. Topics: The Christian System Atonement; The Atoning Blood of Christ
And did the holy and the just

Noah preserved in the Ark, and Believers in CHRIST
Appears in 46 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 3:20-21 First Line: The Deluge, at th' Almighty's Call Lyrics: 1 The Deluge, at th' Almighty's Call,
In what impetuous Streams it fell!
Swallow'd the Mountains in its Rage,
And swept a guilty World to Hell.
2 In vain the tallest Sons of Pride,
Fled from the close pursuing Wave;
Nor could the mightiest Tow'rs defend,
Nor Swiftness 'scape, nor Courage save.
3 How dire the Wreck! how loud the Roar!
How shrill the Universal Cry
Of Millions in the last Despair,
Re-echo'd from the lowering Sky!
4 Yet Noah, humble happy Saint,
Surrounded with the Chosen Few,
Sat in his Ark, secure from Fear,
And sang the Grace that steer'd him thro'.
5 So I may sing, in JESUS safe,
While Storms of Vengeance round me fall,
Conscious how high my Hopes are fix'd,
Beyond what shakes this earthly Ball.
6 Enter thine Ark, while Patience waits,
Nor ever quit that sure Retreat:
Then the wide Flood, which buries Earth,
Shall waft thee to a fairer Seat.
7 Nor Wreck nor Ruin there is seen;
There not a Wave of Trouble rolls;
But the bright Rainbow round the Throne
Seals endless Life to all their Souls.
Noah preserved in the Ark, and Believers in CHRIST

of unseen things above,
of Jesus and his glory,
of Jesus and his love.
I love to tell the story,
because I know 'tis true;
it satisfies my longings
as nothing else could do.
Refrain:
I love to tell the story;
'twill be my theme in glory
to tell the old, old story
of Jesus and his love.
2 I love to tell the story;
'tis pleasant to repeat
what seems, each time I tell it,
more wonderfully sweet!
I love to tell the story,
for some have never heard
the message of salvation
from God’s own holy Word. [Refrain]
3 I love to tell the story,
for those who know it best
seem hungering and thirsting
to hear it, like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
'twill be the old, old story
that I have loved so long. [Refrain]
