Lord! whose love, in power excelling

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord! whose love, in power excelling, Washed the leper’s stain away, Jesus! from Thy heavenly dwelling, Hear us, help us, when we pray! 2 From the filth of vice and folly. From infuriate passion’s rage, Evil thoughts and hopes unholy. Heedless youth and selfish age; 3 From the lusts whose deep pollutions Adam’s ancient taint disclose. From the Tempter’s dark intrusions, Restless doubt and blind repose; 4 From the miser’s cursèd treasure, From the drunkard’s jest obscene, From the world, its pomp and pleasure, Jesus! Master! make us clean! Used With Tune: MERTON Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Written and Adapted to the Weekly Church Service of the Year (London: J. Murray, 1827)

All who love and serve your city

Author: Erik Routley (b. 1917) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 35 hymnals Lyrics: l All who love and serve your city, all who bear its daily stress, all who cry for peace and justice, all who curse and all who bless, 2 in your day of loss and sorrow, in your day of helpless strife, honour, peace and love retreating, seek the Lord, who is your life. 3 In your day of wealth and plenty, wasted work and wasted play, call to mind the word of Jesus, 'Work ye yet while it is day'. 4 For all days are days of judgment, and the Lord is waiting still, drawing near to men who spurn him, offering peace from Calvary's hill. 5 Risen Lord! shall yet the city be the city of despair ? Come today, our Judge, our Glory; be its name, 'The Lord is there!' Topics: City Used With Tune: BIRABUS
