How sweet, how heavenly is the sight
Author: Swain Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 571 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:22 Lyrics: 1 How sweet, how heavenly is the sight,
When those who love the Lord,
In one another's peace delight,
And so fulfill his word!
2 Oh, may we feel each brother's sigh,
And with him bear a part;
May sorrows flow from eye to eye,
And joy from heart to heart.
3 Free us from envy, scorn, and pride;
Our wishes fix above;
May each his brother's failing hide,
And show a brother's love.
4 Let love, in one delightful stream,
Through every bosom flow,
And union sweet, and fond esteem,
In every action glow.
5 Love is the golden chain that binds
The happy souls above,
And he's an heir of heaven who finds
His bosom glow with love. Topics: The Christian Church Fellowship; Brotherly Love

The Day of Resurrection
Author: John of Damascus, 8th cent.; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 516 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1 Lyrics: 1 The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad,
the Passover of gladness,
the Passover of God.
From death to life eternal,
from sin's dominion free,
our Christ has brought us over
with hymns of victory.
2 Let hearts be purged of evil
that we may see aright
the Lord in rays eternal
of resurrection light,
and, listening to his accents,
may hear so calm and plain
his own "All hail" and, hearing,
may raise the victor strain.
3 Now let the heavens be joyful,
let earth its song begin,
let all the world keep triumph
and all that is therein.
Let all things, seen and unseen,
their notes of gladness blend;
for Christ the Lord has risen,
our joy that has no end!

Praise for Redemption
Meter: Irregular Appears in 388 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:18-19 First Line: Now begin the heav'nly theme Lyrics: 1 Now begin the heav'nly theme,
Sing aloud in Jesu's Name:
Ye who his salvation prove,
Triumph in redeeming love.
2 Ye, who see the Father's grace
Beaming in the Saviour's face,
As to Canaan on ye move,
Praise and bless redeeming love.
3 Mourning souls, dry up your tears,
Banish all your guilty fears;
So your guilt and curse remove,
Cancell'd by redeeming love.
4 Ye, alas! who long have been
Willing slaves of death and sin,
Now from bliss no longer rove,
Stop and taste redeeming love.
5 Welcome all, by sin opprest,
Welcome to his sacred rest;
Nothing brought him from above,
Nothing but redeeming love.
6 When his spirit leads us home,
When we to his glory come,
We shall all the fulness prove,
Of our Lord's redeeming love.
7 He subdu'd th'infernal pow'rs,
Those tremendous foes of ours,
From their cursed empire drove;
Mighty in redeeming love.

Lamp of Our Feet, Whereby We Trace
Author: Bernard Barton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 276 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:23 Lyrics: 1 Lamp of our feet, whereby we trace
Our path when wont to stray;
Stream from the fount of heavenly grace,
Brook by the traveler's way.
2 Bread of our souls, whereon we feed,
True manna from on high;
Our guide and chart, wherein we read
Of realms beyond the sky;
3 Pillar of fire, through watches dark,
Or radiant cloud by day;
When waves would whelm our tossing bark,
Our anchor and our stay;
4 Word of the everliving God,
Will of His glorious Son:
Without thee how could earth be trod,
Or heaven itself be won?
5 Lord, grant that we aright may learn
The wisdom it imparts,
And to its heavenly teaching turn
With simple, childlike hearts.
Amen. Topics: Bible, The; God Strength and Refuge; Scriptures, The Holy Used With Tune: LAMBETH
