Grace! 'tis a charming sound
Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 844 hymnals Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Grace! 'tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to the ear;
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear,
And all the earth shall hear.
2 Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display,
Which drew the wondrous plan.
3 Grace led my roving feet
To tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.
4 Grace taught my soul to pray,
And made my eyes o'erflow:
'Twas grace which kept me to this day,
And will not let me go.
5 Grace all the work shall crown,
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
And well deserves the praise.
Amen.

and hushed their raging at your word,
who walked across the surging deep
and in the storm lay calm in sleep:
O hear us when we cry to thee
for those in peril on the sea.
3 Creator Spirit, by whose breath
were fashioned sea and sky and earth;
who made the stormy chaos cease
and gave us life and light and peace:
O hear us when we cry to thee
for those in peril on the sea.

We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease;
Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace.

With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day:
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon Thy Name.

Turn Thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.

Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.

Light of those whose dreary dwelling

Borders on the shades of death!
Rise on us, Thy love revealing,
Dissipate the clouds beneath.

In our deepest darkness rise,--
Scattering all the night of nature,
Pouring day upon our eyes.

Life and joy Thy beams impart,
Chasing all our fears, and cheering
Every poor benighted heart.
4 Come and manifest Thy favor
To the ransomed, helpless race;
Come, Thou glorious God and Saviour!
Come, and bring the gospel grace.
5 Save us, in Thy great compassion,
O Thou mild, pacific Prince!
Give the knowledge of salvation,
Give the pardon of our sins.
6 By Thine all-sufficient merit,
Every burdened soul release:
Every weary wandering spirit,
Guide into Thy perfect peace.

O sacred Head! now wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt; James W. Alexander; Bernard of Clairvaux Appears in 750 hymnals Topics: Christ Praise to Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head! now wounded,
With grief and shame bowed down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns, Thine only crown;
O sacred Head! what glory,
What bliss. till now, was Thine!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to call Thee mine.
2 How art Thou pale with anguish,
With sore abuse and scorn;
How does that visage languish
Which once was bright as morn!
What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered,
Was all for sinners' gain;
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But Thine the deadly pain.
3 What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest Friend,
For this Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
Lord, make me Thine for ever,
Nor let me faithless prove;
Oh, let me never, never
Abuse such dying love!
4 Forbid that I should leave Thee;
O Jesus, leave not me;
By faith I would receive Thee;
Thy blood can make me free;
When strength and comfort languish,
And I must hence depart,
Release me then from anguish,
By Thine own wounded heart.
Amen. Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE

Let earth and heaven combine
Author: C. Wesley Appears in 189 hymnals Topics: Praise to Christ Lyrics: 1 Let earth and heaven combine,
Angels and men agree,
To praise in songs divine
The incarnate Deity:
To adore the all-atoning Lamb,
And bless the sound of Jesus' Name.
2 Jesus! transporting sound!
The joy of earth and heaven;
No other help is found,
No other name is given,
By which we can salvation have;
But Jesus came the world to save.
3 For me and all mankind
The Lamb of God was slain:
My Lord His life resigned
For every soul of man:
Loving to all, He none passed by,
He would not have one sinner die.
4 O unexampled Love!
O all-redeeming grace!
How swiftly didst Thou move
To save a fallen race!
What shall I do to make it known,
What Thou for all mankind hast done?
