Gerat Is Our Redeeming Lord
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 20 hymnals First Line: Great is our redeeming Lord Lyrics: 1 Great is our redeeming Lord,
In, power, and truth, and grace;
Him, by highest heaven adored,
His Church on earth doth praise:
In the city of our God,
In His holy mount below,
Publish, spread His name abroad,
And all His greatness show.
2 For Thy loving kindness, Lord,
We in Thy temple stay;
Here Thy faithful love record,
Thy saving power display:
With Thy name Thy praise is known,
Glorious Thy perfections shine;
Earth’s remotest bounds shall own
Thy works are all divine.
3 See the Gospel Church secure,
And founded on a rock;
All her promises are sure;
Her bulwarks who can shock?
Count! her every precious shrine;
Tell, to after ages tell,
Fortified by power divine,
The church can never fail.
4 Zion’s God is all our own,
Who on His love rely;
We His pardoning love have known,
And live to Christ and die:
To the new Jerusalem
He our faithful guide shall be;
Him we claim, and rest in Him,
Through all eternity.

Christ, our passover, is slain
Jesus Leaves His Throne On High
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics:
1 Jesus leaves His throne on high,
To save a ruined race;
Lo, He condescends to die,
And take the sinner’s place:
In deep slumbers see Him borne
To the tomb, but soon He wakes;
On the third, the glorious morn,
Death’s iron bands He breaks.
2 Soldiers at the entry stand,
The sacred place to guard;
But behold, the time’s at hand,
The tomb must be unbarred:
Angels roll the stone away,
While the watchers’ eyes are sealed,
Death reluctant yields his prey,
And Jesus stands revealed.
3 Raise, ye saints, your joyful eyes,
The victory is yours;
Jesus now above the skies,
Your endless bliss secures:
He the first-fruits from the grave,
Gives a pledge of all to come:
Trust in Him, whose power to save
Shall bring you safely home.

Let The World Lament Their Dead
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let the world lament their dead,
As sorrowing without hope;
When a friend of ours is freed,
We cheerfully look up,
Cannot murmur or complain,
For our dead we cannot grieve,
Death to them, to us, is gain;
In Jesus we believe.
2 We believe that Christ our head
For us resigned His breath,
He was numbered with the dead,
And dying conquered death;
Burst the barriers of the tomb:
Death could Him no longer keep,
He is the first-fruits become
Of those in Him that sleep.
3 God, who Him to life restored,
Shall all His members raise,
Bring them quickened with their Lord,
The children of His grace.
We who then on earth remain,
Shall not sooner be brought home;
All the dead shall rise again
To meet the general doom.
4 Jesus, faithful to His word,
Shall with a shout descend;
All Heaven’s host their glorious Lord
Shall pompously attend;
Christ shall come with dreadful noise,
Lightnings swift, and thunders loud,
With the great archangel’s voice,
And with the trump of God.
5 First the dead in Christ shall rise;
Then we who yet remain
Shall be caught up to the skies,
And see our Lord again;
We shall meet Him in the air,
All rapt up to Heaven shall be,
See, and love, and praise Him there
To all eternity.
6 Who can tell the happiness
This glorious hope affords!
Joy unuttered we possess
In these reviving words:
Happy while on earth we breathe,
Mightier bliss ordained to know,
Trampling upon sin and death,
To the third Heaven we go. Used With Tune: AMSTERDAM Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1742

Watching, praying ever.
2 Tempest tossed and sore distressed,
Still to Thee I’m clinging;
Naught on earth can give me rest,
Only sorrow bringing. [Refrain]
3 Brighter scenes in Heav’n await
For my raptured vision;
Soon I’ll pass the pearly gate,
To the fields elysian. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LILONGWE Text Sources: Precious Jewels by J. H. Leslie and R. B. Mahaffey (New York: C. M. Cady, 1878)
