Hail, sovereign love, which first began
From Nazareth
Author: Margaret Sangster, 1838-1912 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Comes any good from Nazareth? Lyrics: 1. Comes any good from Nazareth?
The scornful challenge as of old
Is flung on many a jeering breath
From cloistered cells and marts of gold.
2. Comes any good from Nazareth?
Behold, the mighty Nazarene,
The Lord of life, the Lord of death,
Through warring ages walks serene.
3. One touch upon His garment’s fringe
Still heals the hurt of bitter years.
Before Him yet the demons cringe,
He gives the wine of joy for tears.
4. O city of the Carpenter,
Upon the hill slope old and gray,
The world among its pain and stir
Turns yearning eyes upon thee today.
5. For He who dwelt in Nazareth,
And wrought with toil of hand and brain,
Alone gives victory to faith
Until the day He come again. Used With Tune: BERA
From Nazareth
Lord, When in Simon's House of Yore
Author: Sarah E. Henshaw Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, when in Simon’s house of yore,
Thou with Thy friends didst sit at meat,
Mary the precious spikenard bore,
And poured it at Thy sacred feet.
2. Like incense sweet, the perfume rare,
Rose through the house, and sought the skies;
And Thou didst own with blessing there
A woman’s loving sacrifice.
3. So unto Thee, O Lord, this day,
A year of labor here we bring;
So at Thy feet the gift we lay;
Accept, O Lord, the offering. Used With Tune: BERA
Lord, When in Simon's House of Yore
