I Waited for the LORD
Blood-Bought
Author: D. C. Addison Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: I have a home at last Lyrics: 1 I have a home at last,
’Twas bought by blood divine,
Safe from the stormy blast,
And the blest title mine.
Blood paid for every stone,
For roof, and nail and door;
There death is never known,
But life for evermore.
2 These emblems mark the wall—
The cross, the nails, the spear;
Five bleeding wounds in all
Show me the title clear.
On Calvary ’twas paid,
Each drop to Justice due;
And Love divine there laid
The price for me and you.
3 Blood-bought, I stand secure,
Since Jesus died for me;
Blood-bought, redemption sure,
If I but cling to Thee.
Washed in this blood divine,
In glory to appear;
Like Him forever shine,
His welcome voice to hear. Used With Tune: ČAPLJINA Text Sources: The Morning Star by Knowles Shaw (Cincinnati: Central Book Concern, 1877)

Awake, Awake, O Earth!
Author: Lucy Randolph Fleming Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 12 hymnals Refrain First Line: He lives again! Lyrics: 1 Awake, awake, O earth!
Thy many voices raise,
And let the echoing hills
Repeat the note of praise.
Let all the isles rejoice,
Let seas take up the strain,
Christ from the dead hath come,
He lives, He lives again.
Refrain:
He lives again!
Our risen Lord, today!
Christ from the dead hath come,
He lives, He lives again.
2 Awake, awake, O earth!
Forget the hour of gloom,
When in thy shudd’ring breast
Thy Maker claimed a tomb.
Put off thy wintry robes
For garb of joyous spring,
Crown thee with lilies fair,
To greet the risen King. [Refrain]
3 Bring treasures of the field,
Bring leaf and blossom sweet,
Thy choicest and thy best,
Before His pierced feet.
While all thy sons are glad,
And tears are put away,
Let youth and age alike
Sing "Christ is ris’n today." [Refrain]
4 Lift up thy gates with praise,
And robes of joy put on,
The Lord of life and death
Hath risen to His throne.
He hath gone up on high,
And giveth gifts to men;
He lives, no more to die,
He lives, He lives again. [Refrain] Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Jesus Christ Ascension of Scripture: Acts 1:9 Used With Tune: AWAKE O EARTH

My spirit longs for Thee
Author: John Byrom (1691-1763) Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 119 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My spirit longs for Thee
Within my troubled breast,
Though I unworthy be
Of so divine a Guest.
Of so divine a Guest
Unworthy though I be,
Yet has my heart no rest,
Unless it come from Thee.
2 Unless it come from Thee,
In vain I look around;
In all that I can see
No rest is to be found.
No rest is to be found
But in Thy blessed love;
O let my wish be crowned,
And send it from above!
Amen. Topics: Orisons; Aspiration; Inner Life, The; Love and Communion; Peace, Spiritual Used With Tune: FINGAL
My spirit longs for Thee
O God, Be Merciful
Author: Anonymous Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O God, be merciful,
Be merciful to me,
For man with constant hate,
Would fain my ruin see.
My many enemies
Against me proudly fight;
To overwhelm my soul
They watch from morn to night.
2. What time I am afraid
I put my trust in Thee;
In God I rest, and praise
His Word, so rich and free;
In God I put my trust,
I neither doubt nor fear,
For man can never harm
With God my helper near.
3. All day they wrest my words,
Their thoughts are full of hate;
They meet, they lurk, they watch,
As for my soul they wait;
Shall they by wickedness
Escape Thy judgment right?
O God of righteousness
Destroy them in Thy might.
4. Thou knowest all my woes,
O treasure Thou my tears;
Are they not in Thy book,
Where all my life appears?
My foes shall backward turn
When I appeal to Thee,
For this I surely know,
That God is still for me.
5. In God, the Lord, I rest,
His word of grace I praise,
His promise stands secure,
Nor fear nor foe dismays;
In God I put my trust,
I neither doubt nor fear,
For man can never harm
With God my helper near.
6. Upon me are Thy vows,
O God, in whom I live;
The sacrifice of praise
To Thee I now will give;
For Thou hast saved from death,
From falling kept me free,
That in the light of life
My walk may be with Thee. Used With Tune: CANA Text Sources: The Psalter (Pittsburgh: The United Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1912)
