Immortal God! on thee we call

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #105 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Immortal God! on thee we call, The great original of all. From thee we are, to thee we tend, Our sure support, our glorious end. 2 We praise that wise, that wondrous grace, That pitied our revolted race, And Jesus, our victorious head, The captain of salvation made. 3 He, thine eternal love decreed, Should many sons to glory lead: And sinful worms to him are giv'n, A colony to people heav'n. 4 Jesus for us (O gracious name!) Encounter'd agony and shame; Jesus, the glorious and the great, Was by dire surf'rings made complete. 5 A scene of wonders here we see, Worthy thy Son, and worthy thee; And, while this theme employs our tongues, All heav'n unites its sweetest songs.

The eternal Sov'reign from on high

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #106 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Th' eternal Sov'reign from on high Cast on the sons of men his eye, To see, if any understood, And fear'd, and lov'd their Maker, God. 2 But all were so degen'rate grown, None the true God had fully known; Both Jew and Gentile long had been By lust enslav'd, and dead in sin. 3 Both gone from wisdom's path astray, Pursu'd the errors of their way, With dismal superstition blind; And causeless terrors fill'd their mind. 4 Who, gracious God! to sinners' eyes could bid the wish'd salvation rise? Thy Son did light and truth display, And turn their darkness into day. 5 No flesh shall boast of righteousness, But guilty shall themselves confess; And, when they heart thy pard'ning voice, In thy salvation shall rejoice.

Behold the blind their sight receive!

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #107 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Behold, the blind their sight receive! Behold, the dead awake and live! The dumb speak wonders, and the lame Leap like the hart, and bless his name. 2 Thus doth th' eternal Spirit own And seal the mission of the Son; The Father vindicates His cause, While he hangs bleeding on the cross. 3 He dies; the heav'n's in mourning stood; He rises, and appears a God. Behold the Lord ascending high, No more to bleed, no more to die. 4 Hence, and for ever, from my heart I bid my doubts and fears depart; And to those hands my soul resign, Which bear credentials so divine.

What works of wisdom, pow'r and love

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #108 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 What works of wisdom, pow'r and love, Do Jesus' high commission prove! Attest his heav'n-derived claim, And glorify his Father's name! 2 On eyes that never saw the day, He pours the bright celestial ray; And deafen'd ears, by him unbound, Catch all the harmony of sound. 3 Lameness takes up it's bed, and goes Rejoicing in the strength that flows Through ev'ry nerve; and, free from pain, Pours forth to God the grateful strain. 4 The shatter'd mind his word restores, And tunes afresh the mental pow'rs; The dead revive, to life return, And bid affection cease to mourn. 5 Canst thou, my soul, these wonders trace, And not admire Jehovah's grace? Canst thou behold thy Saviour's Pow'r, And not believe, obey, adore? Languages: English

Thou, Lord, by mortal eyes unseen

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #110 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, by mortal eyes unseen, And by thy offspring here unknown, to manifest thyself to men, Hast set thine image in thy Son. 2 As the bright sun's meridian blaze O'erwhelms and pains our feeble sight, But cheers us with his softer rays, When shining with reflected light; 3 So, in thy Son, thy pow'r divine, Thy wisdom, justice, truth and love, With mild and pleasing lustre shine Reflected from thy throne above. 4 Though Jews, who granted not his claim, Contemptuous who turn'd away their face; Yet those, who trusted in his name, Beheld in him thy truth and grace. 5 O thou! at whose almighty word Fair light at first from darkness shone, Teach us to know our glorious Lord, And trace the Father in the Son. 6 While we thine image, here display'd, With love and admiration view; Form us in likeness to our head, That we may bear thy image too.

How beauteous are their feet

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #111 (1814) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 How beauteous are their feet Who stand on Zion's hill! Who bring salvation on their tongues And words of peace reveal! 2 How welcome is their voice, How sweet the tidings are! "Zion, behold thy Saviour King; He reigns and triumphs here." 3 How happy are our ears That hear this joyful sound, Which kings and prophets waited for, And sought, but never found! 4 How blessed are our eyes That see this heav'nly light! Prophets and saints desir'd it long, But died without the sight. 5 The watchmen join their voice, Their tuneful notes employ; Jerusalem breaks forth in hymns And deserts learn the joy. 6 The Lord makes bare his arm Thro' all the earth abroad: let ev'ry nation now behold Their Saviour and their God.

The spacious earth and spreading flood Proclaim the wise and pow'rful God; And thy rich glories, from afar, Sparkle in ev'ry rolling star. 4. But in thy Son a glory shines, Drawn out in far superior lines; The lustre of redeeming grace Outshines the beams of nature's face. 5. Grace! ‘tis a sweet, a charming theme; My thoughts rejoice at Jesus’ name. Ye angels, dwell upon the sound! Ye heav’ns, reflect it to the ground! 6. O may I reach that happy place Where he unveils his lovely face! Where all his saints, from death restor'd, Shall be forever with the Lord. Languages: English

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #114 (1814) Meter: Irregular Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names of wisdom, love, and pow'r, that ever mortals knew, that angels ever bore: All are too mean To speak his worth; Too mean to set My Saviour forth. 2 But O what gentle terms, What condescending ways, Doth our Redeemer use, To teach his heav'nly grace! Mine eyes with joy And wonder see, What forms of love he bears for me. 3 Array'd in mortal flesh, He like an angel stands, And holds the promises And pardons in his hands; Commission'd from His Father's throne, To make his grace To mortals known. 4 Great Prophet of my God! my tongue would bless thy name. By thee the joyful news Of our salvation came: The joyful news Of sins forgiv'n, Of hell subdu'd, And peace with heav'n. Languages: English

With ecstasy of joy

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #115 (1814) Meter: Irregular Topics: Office and Mediation of Christ Lyrics: 1 With ecstasy of joy Extol his glorious name, Who rear'd the spacious earth, And rais'd our mortal frame. He built the church, Who spread the sky: Shout and exalt His honours high. 2 See the foundation laid By pow'r and love divine; Jesus, his first-born Son, How bright his glories shine! Low he descends, In dust he lies, That from his tomb A church might rise. 3 But he for ever lives, Nor for himself alone; Each saint new life derives From him, the living stone. His influence spreads Through ev'ry soul, And in one house Unites the whole. 4 To him with joy we move; In him cemented stand; The living temple grows, And owns the founder's hand. That structure, Lord, Still higher raise, Louder to sound Its builder's praise Languages: English
