A Pilgrim Through This Lonely World

Author: Edward Denny Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5599 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. A pilgrim through this lonely world The blessèd Savior passed; A mourner all His life was He, A dying Lamb at last, A dying Lamb at last. 2. That tender heart that felt for all, For all its life blood gave; It found on earth no resting place Save only in the grave, Save only in the grave. 3. Such was our Lord; and shall we fear The cross with all its scorn? Or love a faithless, evil world, That wreathed His brow with thorn, That wreathed His brow with thorn? 4. No! facing all its frowns or smiles, Like Him, obedient, still, We homeward press through storm or calm To Zion’s blessèd hill, To Zion’s blessèd hill. 5. By faith His boundless glories there Our wondering eyes behold; Those glories which eternal years Shall never all unfold; Shall never all unfold. Languages: English Tune Title: ORTONVILLE

Praise to the Holiest in the Height

Author: John H. Newman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5638 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Praise to the Holiest in the height, And in the depth be praise; In all His words most wonderful, Most sure in all His ways. 2. O loving wisdom of our God! When all was sin and shame, A second Adam to the fight And to the rescue came. 3. O wisest love! that flesh and blood, Which did in Adam fail, Should strive afresh against the foe, Should strive and should prevail. 4. And that a higher gift than grace Should flesh and blood refine, God’s Presence and His very Self, And Essence all divine. 5. O generous love! that He, who smote, In Man for man the foe, The double agony in Man For man should undergo. 6. And in the garden secretly, And on the cross on high, Should teach His brethren, and inspire To suffer and to die. 7. Praise to the Holiest in the height, And in the depth be praise; In all His words most wonderful, Most sure in all His ways. Languages: English Tune Title: GERONTIUS

Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5649 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Prayer is the soul’s sincere desire, Unuttered or expressed; The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2. Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3. Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try; Prayer, the sublimest strains That reach The Majesty on high. 4. Prayer is the Christian’s vital breath, The Christian’s native air, His watchword at the gates of death; He enters Heav’n with prayer. 5. Prayer is the contrite sinner’s voice, Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice And cry, Behold, he prays! 6. The saints in prayer appear as one In word, in deed, and mind, While with the Father and the Son Sweet fellowship they find. 7. No prayer is made by man alone The Holy Spirit pleads, And Jesus, on th’eternal throne, For sinners intercedes. 8. O Thou by whom we come to God, The life, the truth, the way, The path of prayer Thyself hast trod: Lord, teach us how to pray. Languages: English Tune Title: CAMPMEETING

Prostrate, Dear Jesus, at Thy Feet

Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5685 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Prostrate, dear Jesus, at Thy feet, A guilty rebel lies; And upwards to Thy mercy seat, Presumes to lift his eyes. 2. If tears of sorrow would suffice To pay the debt I owe, Tears should from both my weeping eyes In ceaseless torrents flow. 3. But no such sacrifice I plead To expiate my guilt; No tears but those which Thou hast shed No blood, but Thou hast spilt. 4. Think of Thy sorrows, dearest Lord, And all my sins forgive: Justice will well approve the word That bids the sinner live. Languages: English Tune Title: ARMAGH

To Thee, O God most merciful, My thankful song I raise; My Might, my strong, secure Abode, I will proclaim Thy praise. Languages: English Tune Title: KATHRINE

Praise ye His name, to whom alone All homage should be given, Whose glory from the eternal throne Spreads wide o’er earth and Heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FULBERT

Praise Ye the Lord, for He Is Good

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5715 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Praise ye the Lord, for He is good; Give thanks and bless His name; His lovingkindness changes not, From age to age the same. 2. What tongue can tell His mighty deeds, His wondrous works and ways? O who can show His glory forth, Or utter all His praise? 3. The Lord will bless and prosper those, Yea, blest indeed are they Whose ways are just, who constantly His righteous law obey. 4. O Lord, remember me in grace, Let me salvation see; The grace Thou showest to Thy saints, That grace reveal to me. 5. Let me behold Thy people’s good And in their joy rejoice; With Thy triumphant heritage Let me lift up my voice. 6. In evil we have gone astray, And sinful is our race; Rebelliously our fathers walked, Forgetful of Thy grace. 7. Though they rebelled, yet for their help In saving strength He came To make His power almighty known And glorify His name. 8. He brought them safely through the sea And overwhelmed their foes; Their faith was stirred, and for the time Their songs of praise arose. 9. Forgetful soon, they tempted God Nor for His counsel cared; He sent them leanness in their souls, While they earth’s bounties shared. 10. With envy they regarded those Whom God to them had sent; The opening earth, the kindling flame, Brought awful punishment. 11. A golden image they adored, And worshipped at its shrine; Thus they despised the living God, And scorned His love divine. 12. Their God and Savior they forgot, Their helper and their stay, But Moses pled the promised grace And turned God’s wrath away. 13. Yea, they despised the pleasant land, The promised land of God, And tempted Him to make them fall And scatter them abroad. 14. They sacrificed to heathen gods, And God their sin repaid; Then holy wrath avenged the wrong, And so the plague was stayed. 15. The Lord approved the righteous act Of him who sin abhorred, And honored him forevermore With just and great reward. 16. By wicked strife they angered God, His wrath they did provoke; And stirred by their rebellious cries, Their leader rashly spoke. 17. Ensnared, they served the heathen gods, And by them were beguiled; The blood of children sacrificed The very land defiled. 18. Against His own inheritance Jehovah’s wrath arose, His chosen people He condemned To serve their heathen foes. 19. Though from their harsh oppressors’ hand Ofttimes He set them free, Rebellious still, they were brought low In their iniquity. 20. When unto God they cried, He heard And turned again His face, In boundless love remembering The covenant of His grace. 21. He even touched their captors’ hearts, And made their very foes Compassionate and pitiful To feel His people’s woes. 22. Save us, O Lord, our gracious God, From alien lands reclaim, That we may triumph in Thy praise And bless Thy holy name. 23. Blest be the Lord our covenant God, All praise to Him accord; Let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye, praise ye the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: BARRE
