O Perfect Life of Love

Author: Henry W. Baker, 1821-77 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 22 First Line: O perfect life of love! Lyrics: 1 O perfect life of love! All, all, is finished now, All that He left His throne above To do for us below. 2 No work is left undone Of all the Father willed; His toil, His sorrows, one by one, The Scriptures have fulfilled. 3 No pain that we can share But He has felt its smart; All forms of human grief and care Have pierced that tender heart. 4 And on His thorn-crowned head And on His sinless soul Our sins in all their guilt were laid That he might make us whole. 5 In perfect love He dies; For me He dies, for me. O all atoning Sacrifice, I cling by faith to Thee. 6 In ev'ry time of need, Before the judgment throne, Thy work, O Lamb of God, I'll plead, Thy merits, not mine own. 7 Yet work, O Lord, in me As Thou for me hast wrought; And let my love the answer be To grace Thy love has brought. Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL

The Victory of the King of Kings

Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 22:28 First Line: The mighty frame of glorious grace Lyrics: 1 The mighty frame of glorious grace, That brightest monument of praise That e'er the God of love design'd, Employs and fills my laboring mind. 2 Begin, my soul, the heav'nly song, A burden for an angel's tongue: When Gabriel sounds these awful things, He tunes and summons all his strings. 3 Proclaim inimitable love: Jesus, the Lord of worlds above, Puts off the beams of bright array, And veils the God in mortal clay. 4 He that distributes crowns and thrones Hangs on a tree, and bleeds, and groans: The Prince of Life resigns his breath, The King of Glory bows to death. 5 But see the wonders of his power, He triumphs in his dying hour, And, while by Satan's rage he fell, He dash'd the rising hopes of hell. 6 Thus were the hosts of death subdu'd, And sin was drown'd in Jesus's blood: Thus he arose, and reigns above, And conquers sinners by his love. 7 Who shall fulfil this boundless song? The theme surmounts an Angel's tongue: How low, how vain are mortal airs, When Gabriel's nobler harp despairs! Topics: The Exaltation of the Prince of Peace: The Saviour of the World

Glad was my heart to hear

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 22 Lyrics: Glad was my heart to hear My old companions say, Come,--in the House of God appear, For 'tis an holy day. Our willing feet shall stand Within the temple-door, While young and old in many a band Shall throng the sacred floor. Thither the tribes repair, Where all are wont to meet, And joyful in the House of Prayer Bend at the Mercy-seat. Pray for Jerusalem, The city of our God; The Lord from Heaven be kind to them That love the dear abode. Within these walls may peace And harmony be found: Zion, in all thy palaces, Prosperity abound. 104 God scorns not humble things; These, though the proud despise, The children of the King of kings, Are training for the skies. May none who thus are taught, From glory be cast down, But all through faith and patience brought To an eternal crown. For friends and brethren dear, Our prayer shall never cease, Oft as they meet for worship here, God send his people peace. Topics: Church its peace and prosperity

God, we praise you, God, we bless you!

Author: Christopher M. Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 22:3 Lyrics: 1 God, we praise you, God, we bless you! God, we name you sovereign Lord! Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by your Church adored: all creation shows your glory, heaven and earth draw near your throne, singing 'Holy, holy, holy, Lord of hosts, and God alone!' 2 True apostles, faithful prophets, saints who set their world ablaze, martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, join one growing song of praise, while your church on earth confesses one majestic Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally. 3 Jesus Christ, the King of glory, everlasting Son of God, humble was your virgin mother, hard the lonely path you trod. By your cross is sin defeated, hell confronted face to face, heaven opened to believers, sinners justified by grace. 4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, you will judge the world you made; Lord, in mercy help your servants for whose freedom you have paid. Raise us up from dust to glory, guard us from all sin today; King enthroned above all praises, save your people, God, we pray!
