Father of Jesus Christ, my Lord

Author: C. Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 61 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of Jesus Christ, my Lord, My Saviour, and my Head, I trust in Thee, whose powerful word Hath raised Him from the dead. 2 Thou knowest for my offence He died, And rose again for me; Fully and freely justified, That I might live to Thee. 3 Eternal life to all mankind Thou hast in Jesus given; And all who seek, in Him, shall find The happiness of Heaven. 4 Obedient faith, that waits on Thee, Thou never wilt reprove; But Thou wilt form Thy Son in me, And perfect me in love. 5 To Thee the glory of Thy power And faithfulness I give. I shall in Christ, at that glad hour, And Christ in me shall live.

Let others boast how strong they be

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 147 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let others boast how strong they be, Nor death nor danger fear; While we'll confess, O Lord, to Thee, What feeble things we are. 2 Fresh as the grass our bodies stand, And flourish bright and gay; A blasting wind sweeps o'er the land, And fades the grass away. 3 Our life contains a thousand springs, And dies if one be wrong; Strange, that a harp of thousand strings Should keep in tune so long. 4 But 'tis our God supports our frame, The God that formed us first, Salvation to the almighty Name That reared us from the dust! 5 While we have breath, or life, or tongues, Our Maker we'll adore. His Spirit moves our heaving lungs, Or they would breathe no more. Topics: Death and Eternity Preparation for Death Used With Tune: MANCHESTER

Lord, thee I'll praise with all my heart

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, thee I’ll praise with all my heart, thy wonders all proclaim. 2 In thee, most High, I’ll greatly joy, and sing unto thy name. 3 When back my foes were turned, they fell, and perished at thy sight: 4 For thou maintain’st my right and cause; on throne sitt’st judging right. 5 The heathen thou rebuked hast, the wicked overthrown; thou hast put out their names, that they may never more be known. 6 The desolations are complete that fell the foe upon; their cities thou hast razed quite, their memory is gone. 7 The Lord for ever doth endure; for judgment sets his throne; 8 in righteousness to judge the world, justice to give each one. 9 So shall the Lord a refuge be for those that are oppressed; a refuge will he be for them, what time they are distressed. 10 And they that know thy name in thee their confidence will place: for thou hast not forsaken them that truly seek thy face. 11 O sing ye praises to the Lord that dwells in Zion hill; among the people everywhere his deeds declare ye still. 12 When he enquireth after blood, he doth remember them: the afflicted he doth not forget that call upon his name. 13 Lord, pity me; behold the grief which I from foes sustain; even thou, who from the gates of death dost raise me up again: 14 That I in Zion’s daughter's gates may all thy praise relate; and that I may exult with joy in thy salvation great. 15 Sunk are the heathen in the pit which they themselves prepared; and in the net which they have hid their own feet fast are snared. 16 The Lord is by the judgment known which he himself hath wrought: the sinners’ hands do make the snares wherewith themselves are caught. 17 The wicked shall be turned back into death's dark abode; and all the nations that forget the great and mighty God. 18 For they that needy are shall not forgotten be alway; the expectation of the poor shall not be lost for aye. 19 Arise, Lord, let not man prevail; judge heathen in thy sight; 20 that they may know themselves but men, the nations, Lord, affright.

Sinners, Behold the Lamb of God

Author: Joseph Hoskins Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 43 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Sinners, behold the Lamb of God Who takes away our guilt; Look to the precious, priceless blood, That Jews and Gentiles spilt. 2. From Heaven He came to seek and save, Leaving His blest abode; To ransom us Himself He gave; Behold the Lamb of God. 3. Sinners, to Jesus then draw near, Invited by His word; The chief of sinners need not fear, Behold the Lamb of God. 4. Spirit of grace, to us apply Immanuel’s precious blood; That we may, with Thy saints on high, Behold the Lamb of God.
