Now Rest, Ye Pilgrim Host

Author: Rossiter W. Raymond Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4642 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D First Line: Now rest, ye pilgrim host, look back upon your way Lyrics: 1. Now rest, ye pilgrim host, look back upon your way, The mountains climbed, the torrents crossed, Through many a weary day. From this victorious height, how fair the past appears, God’s grace and glory shining bright On all the bygone years. 2. How many, at His call, have parted from our throng! They watch us from the crystal wall, And echo back our song. They rest, beyond complaints, Beyond all sighs and tears: Praise be to God for all His saints Who wrought in bygone years. 3. The banners they upbore our hands still lift on high; The Lord they followed evermore To us is also nigh. Arise, arise and tread the future without fears; He leadeth still, whose hand hath led Through all the bygone years. 4. When we have reached the home we seek with weary feet, Our children’s children still shall come To keep those ranks complete; And He, whose host is one throughout the countless spheres, Will guide His marching servants on Through everlasting years.

Not What My Hands Have Done

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4668 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. Not what my hands have done can save my guilty soul; Not what my toiling flesh has borne can make my spirit whole. Not what I feel or do can give me peace with God; Not all my prayers and sighs and tears can bear my awful load. 2. Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your power alone, O Son of God, can all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No strength but that which is divine can bear me safely through. 3. Thy work alone, O Christ, can ease this weight of sin; Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God, can give me peace within. Thy love to me, O God, not mine, O Lord, to Thee, Can rid me of this dark unrest, And set my spirit free. 4. I bless the Christ of God; I rest on love divine; And with unfaltering lip and heart I call this Savior mine. His cross dispels each doubt; I bury in His tomb Each thought of unbelief and fear, each lingering shade of gloom. 5. I praise the God of grace; I trust His truth and might; He calls me His, I call Him mine, My God, my joy and light. ’Tis He who saveth me, and freely pardon gives; I love because He loveth me, I live because He lives.

O Lord, My Earnest Cry

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5118 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O Lord, my earnest cry Thy listening ear has heard; With Thy salvation answer me, And I will keep Thy Word. At early dawn I prayed, Thy promises my trust; At night I thought upon Thy Word, Most holy and most just. 2. O hear me in Thy grace, In mercy quicken me; The wicked plan to do me harm, But they are far from Thee. Thou, Lord, art near to me, And true are Thy commands; Of old Thy testimonies show Thy truth eternal stands. Languages: English Tune Title: WELCOME VOICE

O Thou Essential Word

Author: Laurentius Laurenti; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5364 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O Thou essential Word, Who wast from the beginning With God, for Thou wast God; Thou hope of all the sinning, Chosen to save our race, Welcome indeed Thou art, Redeemer, Fount of grace, To this my longing heart. 2. Come, self-existent Word, And speak Thou in my spirit! The soul where Thou art heard Doth endless peace inherit. Thou light that lightenest all, Abide through faith in me, Nor let me from Thee fall, And seek no guide but Thee. 3. Ah! what hath stirred Thy heart, What cry hath mounted thither, And reached Thy heavenly throne, And drawn Thee, Savior, hither? It was Thy wondrous love, And my most utter need, Made Thy compassions move, Stronger than death indeed. 4. Then let me give my heart To Him who loved me, wholly; And live, while here I dwell, To show His praises solely; Yes, Jesus, form anew This stony heart of mine, Make it till death still true To Thee, for ever Thine. 5. Let naught be left within But what Thy hand hath planted; Root out the weeds of sin, And quell the foe who haunted My soul, and set the tares; From Thee comes nothing ill, O save me from his snares, Make plain my pathway still. 6. Thou art the Life, O Lord, And Thou its light art only! Let not Thy blessèd rays Still leave me dark and lonely. Star of the East, arise! Drive all my clouds away, Till earth’s dim twilight dies Into the perfect day! Languages: English Tune Title: LAURENTI

O Thou Who Dwell'st on High

Author: Wilson T. Hogue Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5425 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O Thou who dwell’st on high, ’Mid burning seraphs bright, Pavilioned in the azure sky, Robed with celestial light: Permit us to draw near, And worship and adore; Redeemed from sin and guilt and fear, Thy blessing we implore. 2. Thou high and holy Lord, Before whom seraphs fall With faces veiled and spirits awed, And Thee thrice holy call: We fall before Thy feet, Unworthy to draw near, E’en though before Thy mercy seat Thou call’st us to appear. 3. Hear Thou the prayer we bring; Regard Thy children’s need; Accept the hymns of praise we sing, And to our vows give heed. We seek Thee in Thy Son, Who died our souls to save— The crucified but risen One, Triumphant o’er the grave. 4. Through Him, our great high priest Before the heav’nly throne, We seek redemption’s power and peace— Peace to the world unknown; Seeking, we find Thee near To bless with every grace And make us meet, when Thou appear, To see Thee face to face.

Prisoners of Hope, Arise

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5677 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. Prisoners of hope, arise, and see your Lord appear; Lo! on the wings of love He flies, and brings redemption near; Redemption in His blood He calls you to receive: Look unto Me, the pardoning God. Believe, He cries, believe! 2. The reconciling word, we thankfully embrace; Rejoice in our redeeming Lord, a blood besprinkled race. We yield to be set free; Thy counsel we approve; Salvation, praise, ascribe to Thee, and glory in Thy love. 3. Jesus, to Thee we look, till saved from sin’s remains; Reject the inbred tyrant’s yoke, and cast away his chains. Our nature shall no more over us dominion have; By faith we apprehend the power which shall forever save. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Roll Out, O Song, to God!

Author: Frank Sewall, 1837-1915 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5840 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D First Line: Roll out, O song to God Lyrics: 1. Roll out, O song to God! Move on, ye throngs of men! Chances and changes come and go; God changeth not! Amen. And on the throngs of men, On worrying care and strife, Sinks down, as if from angel tongues, The word of hope and life. 2. Down in the darksome ways And worrying whirl of life Sinks, like a strain of vesper song, The thought of His great strife; Who, of the virgin born, Made all our chains His own, And broke them with His own right arm, Nor left us more alone. 3. Amid the weak, One strong, Amid the false, One true, Amid all change, One changing not, One hope we ne’er shall rue. In whose sight all is now, In whose love all is best: The things of this world pass away, Come, let us in Him rest. Languages: English Tune Title: VIGLIA

Servant of God, Well Done! (Montgomery)

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5978 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D First Line: Servant of God, well done Lyrics: 1. Servant of God, well done! Rest from thy loved employ; The battle fought, the victory won, Enter thy master’s joy. The voice at midnight came; He started up to hear; A mortal arrow pierced his frame: He fell, but felt no fear. 2. Tranquil amid alarms, It found him on the field, A veteran, slumbering on his arms, Beneath his red cross shield. His sword was in his hand, Still warm with recent fight, Ready that moment, at command, Through rock and steel to smite. 3. The pains of death are past, Labor and sorrow cease; And, life’s long warfare closed at last, His soul is found in peace. Soldier of Christ, well done! Praise be thy new employ; And while eternal ages run, Rest in thy Savior’s joy. Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER HOME

Spirit of Faith, Come Down

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6283 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. Spirit of faith, come down, reveal the things of God, And make to us the Godhead known, and witness with the blood. ’Tis Thine the blood to apply and give us eyes to see, Who did for every sinner die hath surely died for me. 2. No man can truly say that Jesus is the Lord, Unless Thou take the veil away and breathe the living Word. Then, only then, we feel our interest in His blood, And cry with joy unspeakable, Thou art my Lord, my God! 3. O that the world might know the all atoning Lamb! Spirit of faith, descend and show the virtue of His name; The grace which all may find, the saving power, impart, And testify to all mankind, and speak in every heart. 4. Inspire the living faith (which whosoever receive, The witness in themselves they have and consciously believe), The faith that conquers all, and doth the mountain move, And saves whoever on Jesus call, and perfects them in love.
