We May Not Climb the Heavenly Steeps

Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7225 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. We may not climb the heavenly steeps To bring the Lord Christ down; In vain we search the lowest deeps, For Him no depths can drown. 2. But warm, sweet, tender, even yet A present help is He; And faith has still its Olivet, And love its Galilee. 3. The healing of the seamless dress Is by our beds of pain; We touch Him in life’s throng and press, And we are whole again. 4. Through Him the first fond prayers are said Our lips of childhood frame; The last low whispers of our dead Are burdened with His name. 5. O Lord and Master of us all, Whate’er our name or sign, We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call, We test our lives by Thine! Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY

With Glorious Clouds Encompassed Round

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7262 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. With glorious clouds encompassed round, Whom angels dimly see, Will the Unsearchable be found, Or God appear to me? 2. Will He forsake His throne above, Himself to men impart? Answer, Thou Man of grief and love, And speak it to my heart. 3. Didst Thou not in our flesh appear, And live and die below, That I may now perceive Thee near, And my Redeemer know? 4. Come, then, and to my soul reveal The heights and depths of grace, Those wounds which all my sorrows heal, Which all my sins efface. 5. Then shall I see in His own light, Whom angels dimly see: And gaze, transported at the sight, To all eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: HOLY TRINITY

When God of Old Came Down from Heav'n

Author: John Keble Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7267 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. When God of old came down from Heav’n, In power and wrath He came; Before His feet the clouds were riven, Half darkness and half flame: 2. But when He came the second time, He came in power and love; Softer than gale at morning prime Hovered His holy Dove. 3. The fires, that rushed on Sinai down In sudden torrents dread, Now gently light, a glorious crown, On every sainted head. 4. And as on Israel’s awestruck ear The voice exceeding loud, The trump that angels quake to hear, Thrilled from the deep, dark cloud; 5. So, when the Spirit of our God Came down His flock to find, A voice from Heav’n was heard abroad, A rushing, mighty wind. 6. It fills the Church of God; it fills The sinful world around; Only in stubborn hearts and wills No place for it is found. 7. Come Lord, come wisdom, love and power, Open our ears to hear; Let us not miss the accepted hour; Save, Lord, by love or fear. Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER OLD

What Grace, O Lord, and Beauty Shone

Author: Edward Denny Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7280 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. What grace, O Lord, and beauty shone Around Thy steps below! What patient love was seen in all Thy life and death of woe. 2. For, ever on Thy burdened heart A weight of sorrow hung; Yet no ungentle, murmuring word Escaped Thy silent tongue. 3. Thy foes might hate, despise, revile, Thy friends unfaithful prove; Unwearied in forgiveness still, Thy heart could only love. 4. O give us hearts to love like Thee! Like Thee, O Lord, to grieve Far more for others’ sins than all The wrongs that we receive. 5. One with Thyself, may every eye In us, Thy brethren, see The gentleness and grace that spring From union, Lord, with Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: THIS ENDRIS NYGHT

Faith to be healed I fain would have, O might it now be given; Thou canst, thou canst the sinner save, And make me meet for Heav’n. 4. Bound down with twice ten thousand ties, Yet let me hear Thy call; My soul in confidence shall rise, Shall rise and break through all. 5. Thou canst o’ercome this heart of mine, Thou wilt victorious prove; For everlasting strength is Thine, And everlasting love. Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON

Then shall the pure of heart be blest; As mild He comes to them, As when upon the virgin’s breast He lay at Bethlehem. 4. As mild to meek eyed love and faith, Only more strong to save; Strengthened by having bowed to death, By having burst the grave. 5. Lord, who could dare see Thee descend In state, unless he knew Thou art the sorrowing sinner’s Friend, The gracious and the true? 6. Dwell in our hearts, O Savior blest; So shall Thine advent’s dawn ’Twixt us and Thee, our bosom guest, Be but the veil withdrawn. Languages: English Tune Title: WALSALL
