At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel (1817-1877) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 253 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-23 First Line: At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow Lyrics: 1 At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow,
every tongue confess him King of glory now;
'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord,
who from the beginning was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season to receive a name
from the lips of sinners unto whom he came,
faithfully he bore it spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious when from death he passed;
3 Name him, Christians, name him, with love strong as death,
but with awe and wonder, and with bated breath;
he is God the Saviour, he is Christ the Lord,
ever to be worshipped, trusted, and adored.
5 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue
all that is not holy, all that is not true;
crown him as your Saviour in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you in its light and power.
5 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again,
with his Father's glory, with his angel train;
for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow,
and our hearts confess him King of Glory now. Topics: Praise of God; Reign of Christ; Name of Jesus; Ascension and Exaltation Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON
At the Name of Jesus
My God, I love thee
Author: Edward Caswall, 1848-1878 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 208 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:21 First Line: My God, I love thee; not because Lyrics: 1 My God, I love thee; not because
I hope for heav'n thereby,
nor yet because who love thee not
are lost eternally.
2 Thou, O my Jesus, thou didst me
upon the cross embrace;
for me didst bear the nails and spear,
and manifold disgrace.
3 And griefs and torments numberless,
and sweat of agony;
yea, death itself — and all for me
who was thine enemy.
4 Then why, O blessèd Jesu Christ,
should I not love thee well?
Not for the sake of winning heav'n,
nor of escaping hell.
5 Not from the hope of gaining aught,
not seeking a reward;
but as thyself hast lovèd me,
O ever-loving Lord.
6 So would I love thee, dearest Lord,
and in thy praise will sing;
solely because thou art my God,
and my most loving King. Topics: Passiontide; Year C Easter 2 Used With Tune: ST FRANCIS XAVIER Text Sources: Latin (17th century)

God of Grace and God of Glory
Author: Harry E. Fosdick Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-23 Lyrics: 1 God of grace and God of glory,
on your people pour your power;
crown your ancient church's story,
bring its bud to glorious flower.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
for the facing of this hour,
for the facing of this hour.
2 Lo! the hosts of evil round us
scorn the Christ, assail his ways!
From the fears that long have bound us
free our hearts to faith and praise.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage
for the living of these days,
for the living of these days.
3 Cure your children's warring madness;
bend our pride to your control;
shame our wanton, selfish gladness,
rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
lest we miss your kingdom's goal,
lest we miss your kingdom's goal.
4 Save us from weak resignation
to the evils we deplore;
let the gift of your salvation
be our glory evermore.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
serving you whom we adore,
serving you whom we adore. Topics: Discipleship; God's Glory; Obedience to God's Will; Perseverance; Victory; Wisdom; Elements of Worship Charge and Blessing Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

All praise to our redeeming Lord
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 142 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:17-19 Lyrics: 1 All praise to our redeeming Lord,
who joins us by his grace,
and bids us, each to each restored,
together seek his face.
2 He bids us build each other up;
and gathered into one,
to our high calling’s glorious hope,
we hand in hand go on.
3 The gift which he on one bestows
we all delight to prove;
the grace through every vessel flows,
in purest streams of love.
4 Even now we think and speak the same,
and cordially agree;
concentered all, through Jesus’ name,
in perfect harmony.
5 We all partake the joy of one,
the common peace we feel,
a peace to sensual minds unknown,
a joy unspeakable.
6 And if our fellowship below
in Jesus be so sweet,
What height of rapture shall we know
When round his throne we meet. Topics: Christian Community; Grace; Ministry of God's People; Nurturing God's People; People of God; Unity of the Church Used With Tune: NEWINGTON

Christ is alive! Let Christians sing
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 54 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:19-23 Lyrics: 1 Christ is alive! Let Christians sing.
The cross stands empty to the sky.
Let streets and homes with praises ring.
Love, drowned in death, shall never die.
2 Christ is alive! No longer bound
to distant years in Palestine,
but saving, healing, here and now,
and touching every place and time.
3 In every insult, rift, and war,
where colour, scorn, or wealth divide,
Christ suffers still, yet loves the more,
and lives, where even hope has died.
4 Women and men, in age and youth,
can feel the Spirit, hear the call,
and find the way, the life, the truth,
revealed in Jesus, freed for all.
5 Christ is alive, and comes to bring
good news to this and every age,
till earth and sky and ocean ring
with joy, with justice, love, and praise. Topics: Christ Risen Resurrection and Exaltation; Social Concern; Unity of Humanity Used With Tune: OLD CLARENDONIAN

Jesus comes with all his grace
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 51 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:20-23 Lyrics: 1 Jesus comes with all his grace,
comes to save a fallen race,
object of our glorious hope,
Jesus comes to lift us up.
2 Let the living stones cry out,
every child of Abraham shout;
praise we all our lowly King,
give him thanks, rejoice and sing.
3 He has our salvation wrought,
he our captive souls has bought,
he has reconciled to God,
he has washed us in his blood.
4 We are now his lawful right,
walk as children of the light;
we shall soon obtain the grace,
pure in heart, to see his face.
5 We shall gain our calling's prize;
after God we all shall rise,
filled with joy, and love, and peace,
perfected in holiness.
