The Wingèd Herald of the Day

Author: Aurelius Prudentius, 348-413; John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7495 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The wingèd herald of the day Proclaims the morn’s approaching ray: And Christ the Lord our souls excites, And so to endless life invites. 2. Take up thy bed, to each He cries, Who sick or wrapped in slumber lies; And chaste and just and sober stand And watch: My coming is at hand. 3. With earnest cry, with tearful care, Call we the Lord to hear our prayer; While supplication, pure and deep, Forbids each chastened heart to sleep. 4. Do Thou, O Christ, our slumber wake: Do Thou the chains of darkness break; Purge Thou our former sins away, And in our souls new light display. 5. All laud to God the Father be, All praise, eternal Son, to Thee; All glory, as is ever meet, To God the holy Paraclete. Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Within My Heart, O Lord, Fulfill

Author: Herbert H. Booth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7566 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Within my heart, O Lord, fulfill The purpose of Thy death and pain, That all may know Thou livest still In blood-washed hearts to rule and reign. 2. O Lord, I gaze upon Thy face, That suffering face so marred for me; Touched by the wonders of Thy grace My heart in love goes out to Thee. 3. O Savior, by Thy bleeding form The world is crucified to me; Thy loving heart, so rent and torn, Thy suffering bids me share with Thee. 4. ’Twas on the cross Thou didst redeem My soul from sin and dark despair; ’Tis near the cross I would be seen, And welcome every sinner there.

Whom Oceans Part, O Lord, Unite

Author: Howell E. Lewis, 1860-1953 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7612 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Whom oceans part, O Lord, unite To love Thy name and seek Thy light; Though from each other far we be, Let none, O Christ, be far from Thee. 2. On many a distant island shore Still let men see Heav’n’s opened door; ’Mid silent hills, beneath fresh skies, Let Bethel’s shining ladder rise. 3. Our sons and daughters guide in truth; Take for Thyself the flower of youth; Afar from home, through gain or loss, Keep them true hearted to Thy cross. 4. Whom oceans part, O Lord, unite— One commonwealth for God and right; A ransomed people, strong and free, To bring the whole wide world to Thee! Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Ye clouds and darkness, hosts of night, That breed confusion and affright, Begone! o’erhead the dawn shines clear, The light breaks in, and Christ is here. 2. Earth’s gloom flees broken and dispersed, By the sun’s piercing shafts coerced: The day-star’s eyes rain influence bright, And colors glimmer back to sight. 3. Thee, Christ, alone we know; to Thee We bend in pure simplicity; Our songs with tears to Thee arise; Prove Thou our hearts with Thy clear eyes. 4. Though we be stained with blots within, Thy quickening rays shall purge our sin; Light of the morning star, Thy grace Shed on us from Thy cloudless face. 5. All laud to God the Father be, All praise, eternal Son, to Thee; All glory, as is ever meet, To God the holy Paraclete. Languages: English Tune Title: WAREHAM

Proud Babylon Yet Waits Her Doom

Author: Mrs. Vokes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7852 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Proud Babylon yet waits her doom; Nor can her tottering palace fall, Till some blest messenger arise The spacious heathen world to call. 2 And see the glorious time approach! Behold the mighty angel fly, The Gospel tidings to convey To every land beneath the sky! 3 O see, on both the Indias coast, And Africa’s unhappy shore, The unlearned savages press to hear; And hearing, wonder and adore. 4 See, while the joyful truth is told, That Jesus left His throne in Heaven, And suffered, died and rose again, That guilty souls might be forgiven. 5 See what delight, unfelt before, Beams in his fixed attentive eye; And hear him ask, For wretched me, Did this divine Redeemer die? 6 Ah! why have ye so long forborne To tell such welcome news as this? Go now, let every sinner hear, And share in such exalted bliss. 7 The islands, waiting for His law, With rapture greet the sacred sound; And, taught the Saviour’s precious name, Cast all their idols to the ground. 8 Now, Babylon, thy hour is come, Thy cursed foundation shall give way, And thine eternal overthrow The triumphs of the cross display.

Lord Jesus Christ, All Praise To Thee

Author: Martin Luther; Martin Luther; Charles Kinchen Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8312 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, all praise to Thee, That Thou wast pleased a man to be; Our low estate Thou didst not scorn; And angels sang to see Thee born. 2 The heavenly Father’s only Son, He left His rightful glorious throne; The Lord through whom the worlds were made Is in the humble manger laid. 3 The brightness of the light divine Doth now into our darkness shine; It breaks upon sin’s gloomy night And makes us children of the light. 4 The Father’s Son, for ever blest, Becomes in His own world a guest, To lead us from this vale of strife Into the everlasting life.

Be Still, My Heart! These Anxious Cares

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9331 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Be still my heart! these anxious cares Lyrics: 1 Be still my heart! these anxious cares To thee are burdens, thorns, and snares, They cast dishonor on thy Lord, And contradict His gracious word! 2 Brought safely by His hand thus far, Why wilt thou now give place to fear? How canst thou want if He provide, Or lose thy way with such a guide? 3 When first before His mercy-seat, Thou didst to Him thy all commit; He gave thee warrant, from that hour, To trust His wisdom, love, and power. 4 Did ever trouble yet befall, And He refuse to hear thy call? And has He not His promise past, That thou shalt overcome at last? 5 Like David, thou may’st comfort draw, Saved from the bear’s and lion’s paw; Goliath’s rage I may defy, For God, my Savior, still is nigh. 6 He who has helped me hitherto, Will help me all my journey through; And give me daily cause to raise New Ebenezers to His praise. 7 Though rough and thorny be the road, It leads thee home, apace, to God; Then count thy present trials small, For Heav’n will make amends for all.

Father Of Mercies, Bow Thine Ear

Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9990 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, bow Thine ear, Attentive to our earnest prayer: We plead for those who plead for Thee; Successful pleaders may they be! 2 How great their work, how vast their charge! Do Thou their anxious souls enlarge: Their best acquirements are our gain; We share the blessings they obtain. 3 Clothe, then with energy divine Their words, and let their words be Thine; To them Thy sacred truth reveal, Suppress their fear, inflame their zeal. 4 Teach them to sow the precious seed; Teach them Thy chosen flock to feed; Teach them immortal souls to gain, Souls that will well reward their pain. 5 Let thronging multitudes around Hear from their lips the joyful sound; In humble strains Thy grace implore, And feel Thy new-creating power. 6 Let sinners break their massy chains, Distressèd souls forget their pains; Let light through distant realms be spread, And Sion rear her drooping head.

All Souls Are Mine

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10768 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: All souls are Mine beneath the sky Lyrics: 1 All souls are Mine beneath the sky; The soul that sinneth, it shall die: Whate’er its life, whate’er the past, One sin unwept is death at last. 2 But if before the dying day The sinner casts his sins away, All his misdeeds will I forgive; He shall not surely die, but live. 3 O house of Israel, have I A pleasure in the souls that die, Who life and pardon freely give, Who only bid thee turn and live? 4 My ways are just, unequal thine; Thine all for death, for mercy mine; Thine is the ruin, thine the strife That will not enter into life. 5 See God descending in thy frame To suffer in the sinner’s name; Thy sins to Him imputed see, And all His righteousness to thee!
