The Choirs of Ransomed Israel

Author: John Mason Neale; Cosmas, the Melodist Hymnal: Hymns of the Eastern Church (5th ed.) #150 (1866) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Lyrics: The choirs of ransomed Israel, The Red Sea’s passage o’er, Uprais’d the hymn of triumph Upon the further shore: And shouted, as the foeman Was whelmed beneath the sea,— ‘Sing we to Judah’s Saviour, For glorified is He!’ Amongst His Twelve Apostles CHRIST spake the Words of Life, And showed a realm of beauty Beyond a world of strife: ‘When all My FATHER’s glory Shall shine expressed in Me, Then praise Him, then exalt Him, For magnified is He!’ Upon the Mount of Tabor The promise was made good; When, baring all the Godhead, In light itself He stood: And they, in awe beholding, The Apostolic Three, Sang out to GOD their Saviour, For magnified was He! In days of old, on Sinai, The LORD of Sabaoth came, In majesty of terror, In thunder-cloud and flame: On Tabor, with the glory Of sunniest light for vest, The excellence of beauty In JESUS was expressed. All hours and days inclined there, And did Thee worship meet, The sun himself adored Thee, And bowed him at Thy feet: While Moses and Elias, Upon the Holy Mount, The co-eternal glory Of CHRIST our GOD recount. O holy, wonderous Vision! But what, when this life past, The beauty of Mount Tabor Shall end in Heav’n at last? But what, when all the glory Of uncreated light Shall be the promised guerdon Of them that win the fight? Topics: Tarasius, Saint; Theophanes, Saint Languages: English

O balm of care and sadness, Most beautiful and bright! On thee the high and lowly, Through ages joined in tune, Sing holy, holy, holy, To God the great Triune. 2 On thee, at the creation The light first had its birth; On thee, for our salvation, Christ rose from depth of earth; On thee, our Lord, victorious, The spirit sent from heaven; And thus on thee, most glorious, A triple light was given. 3 To-day, on weary nations, The heavenly manna falls; To holy convocations The silver trumpet calls, Where gospel light is glowing With pure and radiant beams, And living water flowing With soul-refreshing streams. 4 New graces ever gaining From this one day of rest, We reach the rest remaining To spirits of the blest: To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father and to Son, The church her voice upraises, To Thee, blest Three in One. Amen. Topics: Worship Languages: English Tune Title: LAUSANNE

There is no friend like Jesus

Hymnal: Hymns of the Early Church #178 (1913) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Lyrics: There is no friend like Jesus, So constant and so kind; He heals the wounded spirit, And calms the troubled mind. The hungry soul He feedeth With manna from His store; And of His living water We drink to thirst no more. When weary is our journey, And heavy is our load, This constant Friend is with us, To cheer our toilsome road. 179 When bright our path and joyous, And sunshine floods the way, Our joy He renders tenfold More joyous every day. There is no friend like Jesus, So constant is His love; The earth has seen His kindness, 'Twill be enjoyed above. Through death's dark vale He'll lead us-- That vale He passed before; With life immortal clothe us, To be unclothed no more. And in that land the fairest, With joys that never end, Our Lord shall stand supremely, Our true and constant Friend. Languages: English
