Weep Not for Him Who Onward Bears
Author: Thomas B. Pollock Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7574 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Weep not for Him who onward bears
His cross to Calvary;
He does not ask man’s pitying tears,
Who wills for man to die.
2. The awful sorrow of His face,
The bowing of His frame,
Come not from torture or disgrace;
He fears not cross or shame.
3. There is a deeper pang of grief,
An agony unknown,
In which His love finds no relief;
He bears it all alone.
4. He thinks of all for whom His life
Of lowliness and pain,
And weariness and care and strife,
Will be, alas, in vain.
5. He sees the souls for whom He dies
Yet clinging to their sin,
And heirs of mansions in the skies
Who will not enter in.
6. Ah! this, my Savior, was the shame
That bowed Thy head so low;
These were the wounds that racked Thy frame,
And made Thy tears to flow.
7. O may I in Thy sorrow share,
And mourn that sins of mine
Should ever wound with grief or care
That loving heart of Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: CHESHIRE
Weep Not for Him Who Onward Bears
Woe to the Men on Earth Who Dwell
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7580 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Woe to the men on earth who dwell,
Nor dread the Almighty’s frown,
When God doth all His wrath reveal,
And shower His judgments down!
2. Sinners, expect those heaviest showers,
To meet your God prepare;
For, lo! the seventh angel pours
His phial in the air.
3. Lo! from their seats the mountains leap,
The mountains are not found;
Transported far into the deep,
And in the ocean drowned.
4. Who then shall live, and face the throne,
And face the Judge severe?
When heaven and earth are fled and gone,
O where shall I appear?
5. Now, only now, against that hour
We may a place provide;
Beyond the grave, beyond the power
Of hell, our spirits hide:
6. Firm in the all destroying shock,
May view the final scene;
For, lo! the everlasting Rock
Is cleft to take us in. Languages: English Tune Title: CHESHIRE
Woe to the Men on Earth Who Dwell
The Wonders of Redeeming Love
Author: Roswell F. Cottrell, 1814-1892 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7617 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. The wonders of redeeming love
Our highest thoughts exceed;
The Son of God comes from above
For sinful man to bleed.
2. He gives Himself, His life, His all,
A sinless sacrifice,
For man He drains the cup of gall,
For man the Victim dies.
3. And now before His Father’s face
His precious blood He pleads;
For those who seek the throne of grace,
His love still intercedes.
4. He knows the frailties of our frame,
For He has borne our grief;
Our great high priest once felt the same,
And He can send relief.
5. His love will not be satisfied,
Till He in glory sees
The faithful ones for whom He died
From sin forever free. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
The Wonders of Redeeming Love
Workman of God
Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7622 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Workman of God! O lose not heart Lyrics: 1. Workman of God! O lose not heart,
But learn what God is like;
And in the darkest battlefield
Thou shalt know where to strike.
2. Thrice blest is he to whom is giv’n
The instinct that can tell
That God is on the field, when He
Is most invisible.
3. Blest too is he who can divine
Where real right doth lie,
And dares to take the side that seems
Wrong to man’s blindfold eye.
4. Then learn to scorn the praise of men,
And learn to lose with God;
For Jesus won the world through shame,
And beckons thee His road.
5. For right is right, since God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin. Languages: English Tune Title: NATIVITY
Workman of God
We Praise Thee, Lord, for Hours of Bliss
Author: John P. Hopps Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7644 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: We praise Thee, Lord for hours of bliss Lyrics: 1. We praise Thee, Lord for hours of bliss,
For days of quiet rest;
But O how seldom do we feel
That pain and tears are best!
2. We praise Thee for the shining sun,
For kind and gladsome ways:
When shall we learn, O Lord, to sing
Through weary nights and days!
3. Teach Thou our weak and wandering hearts
Aright to read Thy way;
That Thou with loving hand dost trace
Our path from day to day.
4. Then sorrow’s face shall be unveiled,
And we at last shall see
Her eyes are eyes of tenderness;
Her speech but echoes Thee!
5. Then every thorny crown of care
Worn well in patience now,
Shall prove a glorious diadem
Upon the faithful brow. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. JOHN'S, WESTMINSTER
We Praise Thee, Lord, for Hours of Bliss
When Peter Boasted, Soon He Fell
Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7648 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. When Peter boasted, soon he fell,
Yet was by grace restored;
His case should be regarded well
By all who fear the Lord.
2. A voice it has, and helping hand,
Backsliders to recall;
And cautions those who think they stand,
Lest suddenly they fall.
3. He said, Whatever others do,
With Jesus I’ll abide;
Yet soon amidst a murderous crew
His suffering Lord denied.
4. He who had been so bold before,
Now trembled like a leaf;
Not only lied, but cursed and swore,
To gain the more belief.
5. While he blasphemed he heard the cock,
And Jesus looked in love;
At once, as if by lightning struck,
His tongue forbore to move.
6. Delivered thus from Satan’s snare
He starts, as from a sleep;
His Savior’s look he could not bear,
But hasted forth to weep.
7. But sure the faithful cock had crowed
A hundred times in vain;
Had not the Lord that look bestowed,
The meaning to explain.
8. As I, like Peter, vows have made,
Yet acted Peter’s part;
So conscience, like the cock, upbraids
My base, ungrateful heart.
9. Lord Jesus, hear a sinner’s cry,
My broken peace renew;
And grant one pitying look, that I
May weep with Peter too. Languages: English Tune Title: ABIDING GRACE
When Peter Boasted, Soon He Fell
Why Should the Children of a King
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7653 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Why should the children of a king
Go mourning all their days?
Great Comforter! descend and bring
Some tokens of Thy grace.
2. Dost Thou not dwell in all the saints,
And seal the heirs of Heav’n?
When wilt Thou banish my complaints,
And show my sins forgiv’n?
3. Assure my conscience of her part
In the Redeemer’s blood;
And bear Thy witness with my heart
That I am born of God.
4. Thou art the earnest of His love,
The pledge of joys to come;
And Thy soft wings, celestial Dove,
Will safe convey me home. Languages: English Tune Title: HOLY TRINITY
Why Should the Children of a King
What Shall I Do, My God to Love?
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7658 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: What shall I do, my God to love Lyrics: 1. What shall I do, my God to love,
My loving God to praise!
The length, and breadth, and height to prove
And depth of sovereign grace?
2. Thy sovereign grace to all extends,
Immense and unconfined;
From age to age it never ends,
It reaches all mankind.
3. Throughout the world its breadth is known,
Wide as infinity,
So wide it never passed by one;
Or it had passed by me.
4. My trespass was grown up to Heaven;
But far above the skies,
In Christ abundantly forgiven,
I see Thy mercies rise!
5. The depth of all-redeeming love,
What angel-tongue can tell?
O may I to the utmost prove
The gift unspeakable!
6. Deeper than hell, it plucked me thence;
Deeper than inbred sin:
Jesus’ love my heart shall cleanse,
When Jesus enters in.
7. Come quickly, then, my Lord, and take
Possession of Thine own;
My longing heart vouchsafe to make
Thine everlasting throne.
8. Assert Thy claim, receive Thy right,
Come quickly from above,
And sink me to perfection’s height,
The depth of humble love. Languages: English Tune Title: RICHMOND (Haweis)
What Shall I Do, My God to Love?
Who Shall Inhabit in Thy Hill?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7659 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Who shall inhabit in Thy hill Lyrics: 1. Who shall inhabit in Thy hill,
O God of holiness?
Whom will the Lord admit to dwell
So near His throne of grace?
2. The man that walks in pious ways,
And works with righteous hands;
That trusts his maker’s promises,
And follows His commands.
3. He speaks the meaning of his heart,
Nor slanders with his tongue;
Will scarce believe an ill report,
Nor do his neighbor wrong.
4. The wealthy sinner he contemns,
Loves all that fear the Lord;
And though to his own hurt he swears,
Still he performs his word.
5. His hands disdain a golden bribe,
And never gripe the poor:
This man shall dwell with God on earth,
And find his Heav’n secure. Languages: English Tune Title: FAR AND NEAR (SPazier)
Who Shall Inhabit in Thy Hill?
While Sinks Our Land to Realms of Night
Author: Janet S. Pattinson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7663 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. While sinks our land to realms of night,
And twilight skies grow dim,
We raise again our joyful hearts
Our parting evening hymn.
2. We bless Thee for the warm, rich glow
Of this our hallowed day,
And for the love that year by year
Shines o’er our onward way.
3. And now, O Father, from on high
List to our evening prayer,
Shed o’er our hearts a blissful calm,
And keep us in Thy care. Languages: English Tune Title: CROSS AND CROWN (Houseley)
While Sinks Our Land to Realms of Night
