Great God, Let All My Tuneful Powers
Author: Ottiwell Heginbothom, 1744-1768 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Great God, let all my tuneful powers
Awake, and sing Thy mighty name;
Thy hand revolves my circling hours,
Thy hand from which my being came.
2 Seasons and moons still rolling round,
In beauteous order, speak Thy praise;
And years, with smiling mercy crowned,
To Thee successive honors raise.
3 To Thee I raise the annual song,
To Thee the grateful tribute give;
My God doth still my years prolong,
And ’midst unnumbered deaths, I live.
4 He bids each season on my soul
Its sweetest, kindest influence shed;
And all the periods, as they roll,
Shower countless blessings on my head.
5 My life, my health, my friends, I owe
All to Thy vast, unbounded love;
Ten thousand precious gifts below,
And hope of nobler joys above.
6 Thus will I sing, till nature cease,
Till sense and language are no more,
And, after death, Thy boundless grace,
Through everlasting years, adore. Used With Tune: PENTECOST

Look from Thy Sphere of Endless Day
Author: William Cullen Bryant Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 174 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Look from Thy sphere of endless day,
O God of mercy and of might!
In pity look on those who stray,
Benighted in this land of light.
2 In peopled vale, in lonely glen,
In crowded mart, by stream or sea,
How many of the sons of men
Hear not the message sent from Thee!
3 Send forth Thy heralds, Lord, to call
The thoughtless young, the hardened old,
A scattered, homeless flock, till all
Be gathered to Thy peaceful fold.
4 Send them Thy mighty Word, to speak,
Till faith shall dawn, and doubt depart,
To awe the bold, to stay the weak,
And bind and heal the broken heart.
5 Then all these wastes,--a dreary scene,
That fills with sadness as we gaze,--
Shall grow with living waters green,
And lift to heaven the voice of praise.
Amen. Topics: Missions Home and Inner; Home Missions Used With Tune: PENTECOST

I come, Thou wounded Lamb of God
Author: J. Wesley, 1703-1791 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I come, Thou wounded Lamb of God,
To wash me in Thy cleansing blood;
To rest beneath Thy cross, then pain
Is sweet, and life or death is gain.
2 Take my poor heart, and let it be
For ever closed to all but Thee!
Seal Thou my breast, and let me wear
That pledge of love for ever there!
3 How blest are they who still abide
Close sheltered at Thy bleeding side!
Who life and strength from Thee derive,
And by Thee move, and in Thee live.
4 What are our works but sin and death,
Till Thou Thy quickening Spirit breathe?
Thou giv'st the power Thy grace to move:
O wondrous grace! O boundless love!
5 How can it be, Thou heavenly King,
That Thou shouldst us to glory bring?
Make slaves the partners of Thy throne,
Decked with a never-fading crown?
6 First-born of many brethren Thou!
To Thee, lo! all our souls we bow;
To Thee our hearts and hands we give:
Thine may we die, Thine may we live! Topics: Blood of Christ; Christ Lamb of God; Consecration Of Self; The Christian Life Aspiration and Prayer; Consecration To Christ; Self-Dedication ; Grace Saving; Lamb Jesus, the Used With Tune: PENTECOST

Easter Day
Author: May L. R. Smith Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O sad, sad soul, fling wide your doors Lyrics:
1 O sad, sad soul, fling wide your doors,
And make your windows curtainless;
Strew odors on your silent floors,
And all your walls with lilies dress!
2 Throw open every somber place;
Roll every hindering stone away;
Let Easter sunshine gild your face,
And bless you with its warmth today!
3 Let friends renew each bygone hour;
Let children fling the world a kiss;
And every hand tie in some flower,
To crown a day so good as this!
4 And whether skies are sad or clear,
We’ll give the day to joy and song;
For since the Christ is surely here,
All things are right, and naught is wrong!

My God, in Whom Are All the Springs
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 117 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My God, in whom are all the springs
Of boundless love, and grace unknown,
Hide me beneath Thy spreading wings,
Till the dark cloud is overblown.
2. Up to the heav’ns I send my cry,
The Lord will my desires perform;
He sends His angel from the sky,
And saves me from the threat’ning storm.
3. Be Thou exalted, O my God,
Above the heav’ns, where angels dwell;
Thy power on earth be known abroad,
And land to land Thy wonders tell.
4. My heart is fixed; my song shall raise
Immortal honors to Thy name;
Awake, my tongue, to sound His praise,
My tongue, the glory of my frame.
5. High o’er the earth His mercy reigns,
And reaches to the utmost sky;
His truth to endless years remains,
When lower worlds dissolve and die.
6. Be Thou exalted, O my God,
Above the heav’ns, where angels dwell;
Thy power on earth be known abroad,
And land to land Thy wonders tell. Used With Tune: PENTECOST Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
