Savior, Shine And Cheer My Soul

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8955 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Savior, shine and cheer my soul, Bid my dying hopes revive; Make my wounded spirit whole, Far away the tempter drive: Speak the word and set me free, Let me live alone to Thee. 2 Shall I sigh and pray in vain, Wilt Thou still refuse to hear; Wilt Thou not return again, Must I yield to black despair? Thou hast taught my heart to pray, Canst Thou turn Thy face away? 3 Once I thought my mountain strong, Firmly fixed no more to move; Then Thy grace was all my song, Then my soul was filled with love: Those were happy golden days, Sweetly spent in prayer and praise. 4 When my friends have said, "Beware, Soon or late you’ll find a change"; I could see no cause for fear, Vain their caution seemed and strange: Not a cloud obscured my sky, Could I think a tempest nigh? 5 Little, then, myself I knew, Little thought of Satan’s power; Now I find their words were true, Now I feel the stormy hour! Sin has put my joys to flight, Sin has changed my day to night. 6 Satan asks, and mocks my woe, "Boaster, where is now your God?" Silence, Lord, this cruel foe, Let him know I’m bought with blood: Tell him, since I know Thy name, Though I change, Thou art the same. Languages: English Tune Title: ARFON

The Clefted Side

Author: Aldine S. Kieffer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9156 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: In that dread and awful day Lyrics: 1 In that dread and awful day, When life’s glories fade away, And the wounded, wayworn soul Spurns all bounds, and breaks control; Hide me, Son of Mary, hide In Thy clefted, riven side. 2 When the mountains reel and sway, When the stars shall darkling stray, When old Ocean’s rugged roar Beats each rock bound coast no more; Then, O Son of Mary, hide— Hide me in Thy clefted side! 3 When the Babe of Bethlehem Builds the new Jerusalem, When all Heav’n, and earth and hell Shall confess that "all is well," Then, Thou Son of Mary, hide— Hide me in Thy riven side.

Wherefore Should I Make My Moan?

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9211 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Wherefore should I make my moan Lyrics: 1 Wherefore should I make my moan, Now the darling child is dead? He to early rest is gone, He to paradise is fled; I shall go to him, but he Never shall return to me. 2 God forbids his longer stay, God recalls the precious loan, God hath taken him away, From my bosom to His own; Surely what He wills is best, Happy in His will I rest. 3 Faith cries out, "It is the Lord! Let Him do as seems Him good"; Be Thy holy name adored, Take the gift awhile bestowed; Take the child, no longer mine, Thine he is, forever Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD

Praise The Lord—His Power Confess

Author: William Wrangham, 1784-1832 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9439 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Praise the Lord—His power confess; Praise Him in His holiness; Praise Him as the theme inspires, Praise Him as His fame requires. Let the trumpets lofty sound; Spread its loudest notes around; Let the harp unite in praise, With the sacred minstrel’s lays. 2 Let the organ join to bless God, the Lord of righteousness; Tune your voice to spread the fame Of the great Jehovah’s name. All who dwell beneath His light, In His praise, your hearts unite, While the stream of song is poured, Praise and magnify the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: MARSDEN

Truth's Advent

Author: Sarah E. Griswold Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9465 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Years ago a Child was born Lyrics: 1 Years ago a Child was born; ’Twas a bright celestial morn When the shepherds sought the Child, Guarded by a virgin mild, Cradled on her heart of love, Watched by angels from above. 2 Wondrous mission had the Child ’Mid the shades of earth beguiled; Whispered He of peace and love, Taught the Father’s power to move All things to His holy will, Bidding discord’s waves be still. 3 Quietly He walked abroad, Strewing blessings where He trod; ’Mid the haunts of fear and wrong, Seeing only Truth’s fair form; Healing, blessing all the way, Thus He went from day to day. 4 Lingered by the bed of pain, Raised the dead to life again; Made all burdens roll away, Cast out demons by the way; Healed the blind in every throng, Taught forgiveness of all wrong. 5 Knowing naught of space or time, Knowing well that life divine Shines in every human heart; Still He bore the human part, Living like the Son of Man, Loving only as God can. 6 Suddenly He went away From the world He loved so well, Promising to come again, Evermore with us to dwell. All who will, behold Him now, All who will, before Him bow. 7 Jesus Christ has come again, Saving truth has come to men; Angels, chant your hymns of praise, Sons of men, your voices raise; Shout the tidings far and near, Christ, the blessèd truth, is here.

Christ Is Come

Author: Francis Bottome Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9707 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Christ is come, come to earth! Lyrics: 1 Christ is come, is come to earth! Low the manger, mean His birth; Son of David, royal seed, None of David’s children heed: Only shepherds wondering gaze, Only strangers seek His face. 2 Yet He comes of Heaven adored, Hosts of angels chant Him Lord! Heaven’s high arches swell the strain, Jesus comes on earth to reign: Wake ye, mortals, wake and see Love’s divinest mystery! 3 Lo! above, the wondrous star, Guiding earnest feet afar, Shining clear, with cold, pale beams, O’er the humble stable gleams; Only wise men see its light Struggling through the murky night. 4 Gay and worldly see no sign In the infant face divine; Child of way-bound traveler there, Why should gay and courtly care? Yet the wise men bend the knee, In the babe Messiah see. 5 Haughty soul and lofty brow May not at the manger bow; Insentient pleasure may not wait Upon the Stranger’s mean estate; Yet to waiting souls the morn Joyful hails the Savior born. 6 So He cometh, ever comes, To our hearts and to our homes, Unobserved of pomp and pride, To the contrite sinner’s side; Smiles on those who eager seek, Makes His advent to the meek.

Now From Labor And From Care

Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9716 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Now from labor and from care, Evening shades have set me free; In the work of praise and prayer, Lord, I would converse with Thee: O, behold me from above, Fill me with a Savior’s love. 2 Sin and sorrow, guilt and woe, Wither all my earthly joys; Naught can charm me here below, But my Savior’s melting voice. Lord, forgive, Thy grace restore; Make me Thine for evermore. 3 For the blessings of this day, For the mercies of this hour; For the Gospel’s cheering ray, For the Spirit’s quickening power, Grateful notes to Thee I raise, Oh, accept my song of praise.

Met Around The Sacred Tomb

Author: Christian I. Latrobe, 1758-1836 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9805 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Met around the sacred tomb, Friends of Jesus, why those tears? Mid this sad sepulchral gloom Shall your faith give way to fears? He will soon, even as He said, Rise triumphant from the dead. 2 Hither, sinners, all repair, And with Jesus Christ be dead; All are safe from Satan’s snare, Who to Jesus’ tomb have fled; Here the weary and oppressed Find a never ending rest. 3 In Thy death is all my trust, I have Thee my refuge made; And when once, consigned to dust, In the tomb my body’s laid, Then with savèd souls above I will praise Thy dying love. 4 But while here I’m left behind, Burdened with infirmity, May I help and comfort find, Visiting Gethsemane, Calvary and Joseph’s tomb, Till my Sabbath’s also come.

Far Beyond The Dark Blue Sea

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9921 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Far beyond the dark blue sea, Many little children dwell, In a land of misery, Where no gentle voices tell Those glad tidings which impart Joy and comfort to the heart. 2 But they bend, from day to day, To their gods, of wood and stone, For the Gospel’s cheering ray Has not made the Savior known; Few the beams of heav’nly light Shining in their dreadful night. 3 Children dear, if you have found Pardon through the Savior’s blood, Seek to spread the joyful sound, Seek to bring their souls to God; Share those blessings rich and true, Which He kindly gives to you Languages: English Tune Title: SCOTIA
