Sinners, For Transgression, See

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13008 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Tune Key: d minor or modal Lyrics: 1 Sinners, for transgression, see Sharp disease their youth consume, And their beauty, like a tree, Withering on an early tomb. 2 Food is loathsome to their taste, And the eye revolts from light; All their joys to ruin haste, As the sunset into night. 3 Then unto the Lord they cry; He inclines a gracious ear, Sends deliverance from on high, Rescues them from all their fear. 4 He with health renews their frame, Lengthens out their numbered days, Let them glorify His name With the sacrifice of praise. 5 O that men would praise the Lord, For His goodness to their race, For the wonders of His Word, And the riches of His grace!

They That Toil Upon The Deep

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13011 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Tune Key: c minor or modal Lyrics: 1 They that toil upon the deep, And, in vessels light and frail, O’er the mighty waters sweep, With the billow and the gale— 2 Mark what wonders God performs, When He speaks, and, unconfined, Rush to battle all His storms, In the chariots of the wind. 3 Up to heav’n their bark is whirled, On the mountain of the wave, Down as suddenly ’tis hurled To th’ abysses of the grave. 4 To and fro they reel and roll, As intoxicate with wine; Terrors paralyze their soul, Helm they quit, and hope resign. 5 Then unto the Lord they cry; He inclines a gracious ear, Sends deliverance from on high, Rescues them from all their fear. 6 Calm and smooth the surge flow, And where deadly lightning ran, God’s own reconciling bow Meets the ocean with a span.

When Christ Was Born In Bethlehem

Author: Grace W. Davis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13049 Tune Key: a flat minor Lyrics: 1 When Christ was born in Bethlehem, Uncrowned with royal diadem, The child within the manger lay, No room within the inn that day; No room for Christ, the Holy Child, No room for Christ, the meek and mild Though ages since have come and gone, So many crowd out God’s dear Son. 2 No room for Christ has wayward youth, And heedless hearts turn from His truth; By business, pleasure crowded out, And life is spent in darkness, doubt; If for Him here there is no room, How dread at last will be the doom; Forever banished from Him there, In deep, unspeakable despair.

See, when a black o’erspreading cloud

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13074 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Key: f minor Lyrics: 1 See, when a black o’erspreading cloud [Originally, When a black overspreading cloud] Has darkened all the air; And peals of thunder roaring loud Proclaim the tempest near. 2 Then guilt and fear, the fruits of sin, The sinner oft pursue; A louder storm is heard within, And conscience thunders too. 3 The law a fiery language speaks, His danger he perceives; Like Satan, who his ruin seeks, He trembles and believes. 4 But when the sky serene appears, And thunders roll no more; He soon forgets his vows and fears, Just as he did before. 5 But whither shall the sinner flee, When nature’s mighty frame, The ponderous earth, and air, and sea, Shall all dissolve in flame? 6 Amazing day! it comes apace! The Judge is hasting down! Will sinners bear to see His face, Or stand before His frown? 7 Lord, let Thy mercy find a way To touch each stubborn heart That they may never hear Thee say, "Ye cursed ones, depart." 8 Believers, you may well rejoice! The thunder’s loudest strains Should be to you a welcome voice, That tells you, "JESUS REIGNS!" Languages: English Tune Title: BURFORD

What Sound Of Lofty Praise

Author: Isadore Gilbert Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13081 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Tune Key: a minor or modal First Line: What sound of lofty praise is this Lyrics: 1 What sound of lofty praise is this, Suffusing all the air? What agony, what untold bliss, Are meeting, striving there? Earth’s last great shadow—endless life On one same threshold stand; Immortal peace—earth’s darkest grief, Both call from distant land. 2 "God owns me, Mother!" thus he spake, What rest, what radiant joy! Peace, stormy soul! For his dear sake, Be still—God owns my boy. A strange, cold shadow comes and goes In those clear star-like eyes; Life flickers now, it faintly glows, A voice calls, "Spirit, rise!" 3 Lift up your heads, ye golden gates— Once more that sound of joy! "God owns me, Mother: Jesus waits To welcome home your boy." Thy rest is glorious, brave child! Thy triumph early won! Thy soul’s young tempest soon was stilled; Thou’rt waiting—we will come.

The Moon And Stars Shall Lose Their Light

Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13112 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Key: e minor or modal Lyrics: 1 The moon and stars shall lose their light. The sun shall sink in endless night; Both heav’n and earth shall pass away; The works of nature all decay: 2 But they that in the Lord confide, And shelter in His wounded side: Shall see the danger overpast— Stand every storm, and live at last. 3 What Christ has said must be fulfilled— On this firm rock believers build; His word shall stand, His truth prevail, And not one jot or tittle fail. 4 His word is this (poor sinners, hear) "Believe on Me, and banish fear; Cease from your own works, bad or good, And wash your garments in My blood."

While Sounds Of War Are Heard Around

Author: John Aikin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13165 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Key: d minor or modal Lyrics: 1 While sounds of war are heard around, And death and ruin strew the ground; To Thee we look, on Thee we call, The parent and the Lord of all. Thou, who hast stamped on human kind The image of a Heav’n-born mind, And in a father’s wide embrace Hast cherished all the kindred race; 2 O see, with what insatiate rage Thy sons their impious battles wage; How spreads destruction, like a flood, And brothers shed their brothers’ blood! See guilty passions spring to birth, And deeds of hell deform the earth; While righteousness and justice mourn, And love and pity droop forlorn. 3 Great God! whose powerful hand can bind The raging waves, the furious wind, O bid the human tempest cease, And hush the maddening world to peace. With reverence may each hostile land Hear and obey that high command, Thy Son’s blest errand from above— "My creatures, live in mutual love!" Languages: English Tune Title: TALLIS' LAMENTATION

Who Is This Babe So Lowly?

Springett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13186 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Key: a minor or modal First Line: Who is this babe so lowly Lyrics: 1 Who is this babe so lowly, Here laid in a manger bed, Room in the inn denied Him, But cradled in cattle shed? This is the Lord Almighty, Messiah Savior king, Whose praises holy angels With ceaseless worship sing! 2 Who is this Babe so tender, To toil and suffering born, Whom men will treat unkindly, With cruelty and scorn? This is the Lord Almighty, Whom hosts in Heav’n adore, Who with His word could scatter His foes forevermore! 3 Who is this Babe so gentle, This Babe, so pure and sweet, Who wears a smile so loving, His visitors to greet? This is our only Savior, Who deigns on earth to come That He may open for us The great eternal home. Languages: English Tune Title: PETTMAN

We, through God, shall yet prevail, He will help when foes assail. Languages: English Tune Title: HEROLD

The Sunday School Teacher's Reward

Author: Emily J. Bugbee Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13250 Meter: 13.11.12.11 Tune Key: a flat minor First Line: Ye shall shine as the stars in the fadeless forever Lyrics: 1 Ye shall shine as the stars in the fadeless forever, Who turn unto Jesus the perishing here, Who gently are leading the lambs to the pasture Where floweth the water s cooling and clear. 2 Then prayerfully, carefully, go to your labors, And deal with them wisely, the souls of your care, Never forgetting, though lofty or lowly, How costly a gem is the spirit they bear. 3 Souls that look yearningly ito your faces, Catching the beams of the heavenly light, Turning but slowly from sin’s desert places, Into the beautiful pathway of light. 4 Better, by far, than all worldly bestowment, Is the reward that your service will win; Turning to righteousness souls of the children, Stooping to gather the poorest ones in. 5 Time, with its guerdons o honor and treasure, Soon will be lost in the measureless sea, But yonder a crown, that is starred with the glory Of souls for thy hire, will be waiting for thee. 6 Then turn not thy hand from the work that’s before thee, Nor suffer thy heart to grow careless and cold; The seeds ye are sowing, with patience and prayer, Ere long will be waving in harvests of gold. 7 And work, with a will, for the ages are being Condensed in the cycles of wonderful years; The tread of the Mighty One goeth before thee, And soon will the dawn of His brightness appear. 8 Not long may it be till the Master shall call thee; Not long till the time of thy mission is o’er— Then work while the day lasts, and e’er the night’s shadow Shall gather its gloom, and ye labor no more.
