When Any Turn From Zion's Way
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 109 hymnals First Line: When any turn from Zion’s way Lyrics: 1 When any turn from Zion’s way,
(Alas! what numbers do!)
Methinks I hear my Savior say,
"Wilt thou forsake Me too?"
2 Ah Lord! with such a heart as mine,
Unless Thou hold me fast;
I feel I must, I shall decline,
And prove like them at last.
3 Yet Thou alone hast power, I know,
To save a wretch like me;
To whom, or whither, could I go,
If I should turn from Thee?
4 Beyond a doubt I rest assured
Thou art the Christ of God;
Who hast eternal life secured
By promise and by blood.
5 The help of men and angels joined,
Could never reach my case;
Nor can I hope relief to find,
But in Thy boundless grace.
6 No voice but Thine can give me rest,
And bid my fears depart;
No love but Thine can make me blest,
And satisfy my heart.
7 What anguish has that question stirred,
If I will also go?
Yet, Lord, relying on Thy Word,
I humbly answer, "No!" Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 1

Children Of Zion, Know Your King
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854, alt. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Children of Zion, know your King Lyrics:
1 Children of Zion, know your King,
Your own Messiah hail:
Hosanna in His temple sing,
For He hath rent the veil.
2 Himself the sacrifice for sin,
As your High-Priest He died;
With His own blood, He entered in—
Behold Him crucified!
3 Behold Him on the mercy seat,
High in the holiest place;
Now cast yourselves before His feet,
Then rise to see His face.
4 That face with reconciling beams
Shines forth upon you all;
No longer mourn by Babel’s streams,
He calls you—hear His call.
5 So shall your hearts within you burn;
While guided by His voice,
With songs to Zion you return,
And in your God rejoice,
6 At His great name, bow every knee;
Let every tongue confess
Christ, whom your fathers slew, is he,
The Lord your Righteousness.

Children Of Zion, Know Your King
How Shall I Look Upon That Brow?
Author: K. Y. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: How shall I look upon that brow Lyrics: 1 How shall I look upon that brow,
O crowned with thorns for me?
How shall I lift my sinful eyes,
Those glorious eyes to see?
2 How shall I dare to look upon
The piercèd hands and feet,
When all the dead in Christ shall rise
Their risen Lord to meet?
3 How shall I venture, holy Lord,
To come before Thee now,
All stained with sin my evil heart,
Its mark upon my brow?
4 My waywardness, my willfulness,
The sins I dare not name,
Gave to the Lord of Life His death,
The Lord of Glory shame.
5 The lame and blind were hated then
Of holy David’s soul;
They came to Thee in temple, Lord,
And Thou didst make them whole.
6 The leper dared not sit or rest
Where trace of man had been;
Yet didst Thou deign, all merciful,
To touch, and make him clean.
7 From some the righteous pure will shrink,
And shun their face to see,
But harlot and the publican
Thou calledst unto Thee.
8 And when Thy blessèd hands were pierced,
Upon the bitter tree,
Even in that hour of agony,
Thou thought with love of me.
9 Alas! I knew not what I did,
I know not what I do,
When by my sins I crucify
The Son of God anew.
10 I only know that I am vile,
More vile than words can say,
But know that Jesus did not will
The worst be cast away. Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Lyra Messianica by Orby Shipley (London: Longman, Green, Longman, roberts & Green, 1864)
How Shall I Look Upon That Brow?
The Aged Sire Has Gone to Rest
Author: John J Moore Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The aged sire has gone to rest;
He left the world below,
To rest upon the Saviour's breast,
Escaping every foe.
2 Tho' kindred dear and friends might mourn,
He could no longer stay:
On angel's wings he swift was borne
To realms of endless day.
3 His silver locks no altars wreathe
Nor voice earth's temple fill:
But where enraptured spirits breathe
His voice the regions thrill.
4 Melodious strains his notes control,
Proclaiming love divine;
While him angelic throngs behold
'Midst cloudless glory shine.
AMEN.
