One There Is, Above All Others

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5236 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. One there is, above all others, Well deserves the name of friend; His is love beyond a brother’s, Costly, free, and knows no end: They who once His kindness prove, Find it everlasting love! 2. Which of all our friends to save us, Could or would have shed their blood? But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled, in Him to God: This was boundless love indeed! Jesus is a friend in need. 3. Men, when raised to lofty stations, Often know their friends no more; Slight and scorn their poor relations Though they valued them before. But our Savior always owns Those whom He redeemed with groans. 4. When He lived on earth abasèd, Friend of sinners was His name; Now, above all glory raisèd, He rejoices in the same: Still He calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 5. Could we bear from one another, What He daily bears from us? Yet this glorious friend and brother, Loves us though we treat Him thus: Though for good we render ill, He accounts us brethren still. 6. O for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often, What a friend we have above: But when home our souls are brought, We will love Thee as we ought.

Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5270 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Open now thy gates of beauty, Zion, let me enter there, Where my soul in joyful duty Waits for Him who answers prayer. Oh, how blessèd is this place, Filled with solace, light and grace! 2. Lord, my God, I come before Thee, Come Thou also unto me; Where we find Thee and adore Thee, There a heav’n on earth must be. To my heart, oh, enter Thou, Let it be Thy temple now! 3. Here Thy praise is gladly chanted, Here Thy seed is duly sown; Let my soul, where it is planted, Bring forth precious sheaves alone, So that all I hear may be Fruitful unto life in me. 4. Thou my faith increase and quicken, Let me keep Thy gift divine, Howsoe’er temptations thicken; May Thy Word still o’er me shine As my guiding star through life, As my comfort in my strife. 5. Speak, O God, and I will hear Thee, Let Thy will be done indeed; May I undisturbed draw near Thee While Thou dost Thy people feed. Here of life the fountain flows, Here is balm for all our woes.

Precious Bible! What a Treasure

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5657 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Precious Bible! what a treasure Does the Word of God afford? All I want for life or pleasure, Food and med’cine, shield and sword: Let the world account me poor, Having this I need no more. 2. Food to which the world’s a stranger, Here my hungry soul enjoys; Of excess there is no danger, Though it fills, it never cloys: On a dying Christ I feed, He is meat and drink indeed. 3. When my faith is faint and sickly, Or when Satan wounds my mind, Cordials, to revive me quickly, Healing med’cines here I find: To the promises I flee, Each affords a remedy. 4. In the hour of dark temptation Satan cannot make me yield; For the Word of consolation Is to me a mighty shield While the scripture truths are sure, From his malice I’m secure. 5. Vain his threats to overcome me, When I take the Spirits’ sword; Then with ease I drive him from me. Satan trembles at the word: ’Tis a sword for conquest made, Keen the edge, and strong the blade. 6. Shall I envy then the miser Doting on his golden store? Sure I am, or should be, wiser, I am rich, ’tis he is poor: Jesus gives me in his word, Food and med’cine, shield and sword. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS OLD

Precious Child, So Sweetly Sleeping

Author: Anna B. Hoppe Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5660 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Precious Child, so sweetly sleeping In a virgin’s fond embrace; Heav’nly hosts their watch are keeping O’er Thy humble dwelling place; Blest Messiah, newborn King, Let my heart its tribute bring. 2. Anthems joyous now are ringing In the skies of Bethlehem; Angels their sweet song are singing, Peace on earth, good will to men. Precious Jesus, at Thy birth Heaven’s peace is brought to earth. 3. Sweetly rest, Thou promised Savior, By the prophets long foretold; Brightly beams the Father’s favor, Now all men His love behold. Virgin born Immanuel, Let my tongue Thy praises tell! 4. Promised Savior, I adore Thee, Son of David, Son of God! What can mortals bring before Thee? All is Thine on earthly sod. Take my heart and let it be Filled with love, dear Child, to Thee.

Rise, Ye Children of Salvation

Author: Justus Falckner; Emma F. Bevan Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5822 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Rise, ye children of salvation, All who cleave to Christ the head; Wake, awake, O mighty nation, Ere the foe on Zion tread; He draws nigh, and would defy All the hosts of God most high. 2. Saints and martyrs long before us Firmly on this ground have stood; See their banner waving o’er us, Conquerors through the Savior’s blood. Ground we hold, whereon of old, Fought the faithful and the bold. 3. Fighting, we shall be victorious By the blood of Christ our Lord; On our foreheads, bright and glorious, Shines the witness of His Word; Spear and shield on battlefield, His great name; we cannot yield. 4. When His servants stand before Him Each receiving his reward, When His saints in light adore Him, Giving glory to the Lord; Victory! our song shall be Like the thunder of the sea.

The Son of David Bowed to Die

Author: Joseph Anstice Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6223 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. The Son of David bowed to die, For man’s transgression stricken; The Father’s arm of power was nigh, The Son of God to quicken. Praise Him that He died for men: Praise Him that He rose again. 2. Death seemed all conquering when he bound The Lord of life in prison; The sight of death was nowhere found When Christ again was risen; Wherefore praise Him night and day, Him who took death’s sting away. 3. His saints with Him must bow to death, With Him are raised in spirit, With Him they dwell above by faith, Accepted through His merit: Heaven and earth resound the strain, Death by Jesus Christ is slain. Martha 4. Christ said to Martha by her brother’s grave, I am the resurrection and the life— And with what troubled thoughts her mind was rife! The life, He said, and yet He freely gave His life, and saving others could not save Himself. The resurrection? Chuza’s wife Had seen Him in the tomb—at end was strife, And o’er her anguish swept, a mighty wave. And yet her firm assurance kept her faith, And her reply, the fervent I believe,— Had not His voice raised Lazarus from death, Had not the grave released its four days’ prey? A foretaste of the resurrection day She had to bid her wait, and not to grieve. 5. Caroline Hazard (1856-1945) Languages: English Tune Title: VICTOR FUNERIS

Sinners, Will You Scorn the Message

Author: Jonathan Allen Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6446 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Sinners, will you scorn the message Sent in mercy from above? Every sentence, O how tender! Every line is full of love: Listen to it, listen to it, Every line is full of love. 2. Hear the heralds of the Gospel News from Zion’s King proclaim: Pardon to each rebel sinner, Free forgiveness in His name: How important, how important, Free forgiveness in His name. 3. Tempted souls, they bring you succor; Fearful hearts, they quell your fears, And, with news of consolation, Chase away the falling tears: Tender heralds, tender heralds, Chase away the falling tears. 4. False professors, groveling wordlings, Callous hearers of the Word, While the messengers address you, Take the warnings they afford; We entreat you, we entreat you, Take the warnings they afford. 5. O ye angels, hovering round us, Waiting spirits, speed your way; Haste ye to the court of heaven, Tidings bear without delay, Rebel sinners, rebel sinners, Glad the message will obey.

Through the Day Thy Love Has Spared Us

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6713 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Through the day Thy love has spared us; Now we lay us down to rest; Through the silent watches guard us, Let no foe our peace molest; Jesus, Thou our Guardian be; Sweet it is to trust in Thee. 2. Pilgrims here on earth, and strangers, Dwelling in the midst of foes; Us and ours preserve from dangers; In Thine arms may we repose. And, when life’s sad day is past, Rest with Thee in Heav’n at last. Languages: English Tune Title: DRETZEL
