Shepherds! rejoice, lift up your eyes
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 167 hymnals Topics: Deliverance from temptation; Temptations overcome; Victory over temptations; Praise for temptations overcome Lyrics:
"Shepherds, rejoice! lift up your eyes,
And send your fears away;
News from the regions of the skies,
Salvation's born to-day.
"Jesus, the God whom angels fear,
Comes down to dwell with you;
Today he makes his entrance here,
But not as monarchs do.
"No gold nor purple swaddling bands.
Nor royal shining things;
A manger for his Cradle stands,
And holds the King of kings.
"Go, shepherds, where the infant lies,
And see his humble throne
With tears of joy in all your eyes,
Go, shepherds, kiss the Son."
Thus Gabriel sang, and straight around
The heav'nly armies throng;
They tune their harps to lofty sound,
And thus conclude the song:
"Glory to God that reigns above!
Let peace surround the earth!
Mortals shall know their Maker's love,
At their Redeemer's birth."
Lord, and shall angels have their songs,
And men no tunes to raise?
O may we lose our useless tongues
When they forget to praise.
Glory to God that reigns above,
That pitied us forlorn;
We join to sing our Maker's love,
For there's a Savior born.
Scripture: Luke 2:10
Shepherds! rejoice, lift up your eyes

Guided to Thy cradle throne
By a wondrous star;

Lead me all the way,
Till I reach Thy home at last,

If I Today Have Grieved My Savior's Heart
Author: Erik Routley Meter: 10.10.10.3.4 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Temptation of believers Lyrics: 1 If I today have grieved my Savior's heart,
if I have wandered from the path of grace,
if I have caused some child of yours to stray,
have mercy, have mercy, Lord!
2 If I, seduced by thoughtless whim or word,
have overlooked some needy neighbor's pain,
reject me not for sins that bear me down,
have mercy, have mercy, Lord!
3 If selfish ease was my indulgent choice,
if, when you called to fight, I sought for peace,
if from the Spirit's strife I hid myself,
have mercy, have mercy, Lord!
4 These are my prayers, and this my penitence;
temptation presses and its voice is sweet;
yet I arise and seek my Father's house.
Receive me, receive me, Lord! Scripture: Job 31:5-40 Used With Tune: SARUM
If I Today Have Grieved My Savior's Heart
Now shall my inward joys arise
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 65 hymnals Topics: Deliverance from temptation; Temptations overcome; Victory over temptations; Praise for temptations overcome Lyrics:
Now shall my inward joys arise,
And burst into a song;
Almighty love inspires my heart,
And pleasure tunes my tongue.
God on his thirsty Zion hill
Some mercy drops has thrown,
And solemn oaths have bound his love
To shower salvation down.
Why do we then indulge our fears,
Suspicions, and complaints?
Is he a God, and shall his grace
Grow weary of his saints?
Can a kind woman e'er forget
The infant of her womb?
And 'mongst a thousand tender thoughts
Her suckling have no room?
"Yet," saith the Lord, "should nature change,
And mothers monsters prove,
Zion still dwells upon the heart
Of everlasting love.
"Deep on the palms of both my hands
I have engraved her name;
My hands shall raise her ruined walls,
And build her broken frame?"
Scripture: Isaiah 49:13
Now shall my inward joys arise
