Great God! to what a glorious height

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #167 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Great God! to what glorious height Hast Thou advanced the Lord, Thy Son! Angels, in all their robes of light, Are made the servants of His throne. 2 Before His feet their armies wait, And swift as flames of fire they move, To manage His affairs of state, In works of vengeance, or of love. 3 Now they are sent to guide our feet, Up to the gates of Thine abode, Through all the dangers that we meet, In trav'ling o'er the heavenly road. 4 Lord! when I leave this mortal ground, And Thou shalt bid us rise and come-- Send Thy belovéd angels down, Safe to conduct our spirits home.

Awake, my soul, in joyful lays

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #169 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, to joyful lays, And sing thy great Redeemer’s praise; He justly claims a song from me, His loving-kindness, oh, how free! 2 He saw me ruin'd in the fall, Yet loved me, notwithstanding all; He saved me from my lost estate, His loving-kindness, oh, how great! 3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes, Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along, His loving-kindness, oh, how strong! 4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud, Has gather'd thick and thunder'd loud, He near my soul has always stood, His loving-kindness, oh, how good! 5 Often I feel my sinful heart Prone from my Jesus to depart; But though I have him oft forgot, His loving-kindness changes not. 6 Soon I shall pass the gloomy vale, Soon all my mortal powers must fail; O! may my last expiring breath His loving-kindness sing in death. 7 Then let me mount and soar away To the bright world of endless day; And sing with raptures and surprise, His loving-kindness in the skies.

Jesus! and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg; Benjamin Francis Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #169a (1899) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus! and shall it ever be A mortal man ashamed of Thee? Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine thro' endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon: 'Tis midnight with my soul till He, Bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No; when I blush--be this my shame, That I no more revere His name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I've no guilt to wash away, No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then--nor is my boasting vain-- Till then I boast a Saviour slain; And, oh, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MEROE

Never leave us nor forsake: In Thy light may we abide Till the endless morning break; Moving on to Zion's hill, Onward, upward, homeward still! Languages: English
