He Who Suns and Worlds Upholdeth

Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2688 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. He who suns and worlds upholdeth Lends us His upholding hand; He the ages who unfoldeth Doth our times and ways command. God is for us, God is for us; In His strength and stay we stand. 2. He who sage and seer instructed Will not keep from us His lore; Who those ancient saints conducted Hath not giv’n His guiding o’er. God is for us, God is for us; Helpful now as heretofore. 3. ’Gainst oppression forth He sends us; His the cause of truth and right; With His own great host He binds us, Lendeth us of His own might; God is for us, God is for us; Brings to happy end the fight. 4. Onward, upward doth He beckon; Onward, upward would we press; As His own our burdens reckon, As our own His strength possess. God is for us, God is for us; God, our Helper, still we bless.

Jesus, Blessèd Lord and Savior

Author: G. de Mattos Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3262 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Jesus, blessèd Lord and Savior, Bowed in death on Calv’ry’s tree, Darkest hour of bitter judgment, Borne to set Thy people free; Sweet our portion, sweet our portion, As we thus remember Thee. 2. From the highest heights of glory, To the cross of deepest shame, Thus accomplishing redemption, Jesus in His pity came; Precious Savior, precious Savior, We adore Thy matchless name. 3. From the darkness and the distance, From the crushing load of sin, Blessèd Savior, Thou hast freed us, By Thy blood hast made us clean; In Thy beauty, in Thy beauty, Now Thy ransomed ones are seen. 4. Thus assured of Thine acceptance We to God may now draw near; In the holiest may worship; Perfect love hath cast out fear; To the Father, to the Father, We in Christ are near and dear.

Light's Abode, Celestial Salem

Author: Thomas à Kempis, 1379-1471; John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3565 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Light’s abode, celestial Salem, Vision whence true peace doth spring, Brighter than the heart can fancy, Mansion of the highest King; O how glorious are the praises Which of thee the prophets sing! 2. There for ever and for ever Alleluia is outpoured For unending and unbroken Is the feast day of the Lord; All is pure and all is holy That within thy walls is stored. 3. There no cloud nor passing vapor Dims the brightness of the air; Endless noonday, glorious noonday, From the Sun of suns is there; There no night brings rest from labor, For unknown are toil and care. 4. O how glorious and resplendent, Fragile body, shalt thou be, When endued with so much beauty, Full of health, and strong, and free, Full of vigor, full of pleasure That shall last eternally! 5. Now with gladness, now with courage, Bear the burden on thee laid, That hereafter these thy labors May with endless gifts be paid, And in everlasting glory Thou with brightness be arrayed. 6. Laud and honor to the Father, Laud and honor to the Son, Laud and honor to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, Consubstantial, Co-eternal, While unending ages run.

Author: Mary H. Maxwell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6241 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Saints of God! the dawn is brightening, Token of our coming Lord: O’er the earth the field is whitening; Louder rings the Master’s Word; Pray for reapers, pray for reapers In the harvest of the Lord! 2. Now, O Lord, fulfill Thy pleasure, Breathe upon Thy chosen band, And, with Pentecostal measure, Send forth reapers o’er our land; Faithful reapers, faithful reapers, Gathering sheaves for Thy right hand. 3. Broad the shadow of our nation, Eager millions hither roam; Lo! they wait for Thy salvation; Come, Lord Jesus! quickly come! By Thy Spirit, by Thy Spirit, Bring Thy ransomed people home. 4. Soon shall end the time of weeping, Soon the reaping time will come; Heaven and earth together keeping God’s eternal harvest home. Saints and angels, saints and angels, Shout the world’s great harvest home. Languages: English Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE

Angels Come On Joyous Pinion

Author: Nicholas le Tourneaux; Isaac Williams Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8602 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Angels come on joyous pinion, Down the Heav’n’s melodious stair; Triumphing o’er death’s dominion, Up to this our lower air. Christ has risen! Christ has risen! And hath burst the sepulcher. 2 All in vain, the posted station Of the armèd soldiery, All in vain, the faithless nation Set the seal and watches nigh; Ye need not fear, ye need not fear, None can reach where He doth lie! 3 He Himself, from sleep awaking, Who spontaneous bore the gloom, Through the seals, and without breaking, Hath come forth and left the tomb; Death could not hold, death could not hold Him born of a virgin’s womb. 4 Lord, with Thee in daily dying May we die, and with Thee rise; And on earth, ourselves denying, Lift our hearts unto the skies, To sing our God, to sing our God, Three in One, sole Good and Wise.

Now Again The World Is Shaken

Author: Henry J. van Dyke Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9839 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Now again the world is shaken, Tempests break on sea and shore; Earth with ruin overtaken, Trembles while the storm winds roar. He abideth who confideth, God is God forevermore. 2 Thrones are falling, heathen raging, Peoples dreaming as of yore Vain imaginations, waging Man with man, unmeaning war. He abideth who confideth, Christ is King forevermore. 3 Human wisdom in confusion, Casts away the forms it wore; Ancient error, new illusion, Lose the phantom fruit they bore. He abideth who confideth, Truth is truth forevermore. 4 Right eternal, Love immortal, Built the house where we adore; Mercy is its golden portal, Virtue its unshaken floor. He abideth who confideth, God is God forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE

Love Must Be Sincere And Honest

Author: Susan H. Peterson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11155 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Love must be sincere and honest; Hate what’s evil, keep the good. Be devoted to each other; Honor them as Jesus would. Never lack in zeal or fervor; Serve the Lord with all your heart. 2 Patient, joyful, always faithful, In affliction, hope and prayer. Share with those who need assistance, Always ready your home to share. Bless all those who persecute you; Bless and do not curse their names. 3 Joy with those who are rejoicing; Weep with those who mourn their fate. Live in peace; be not conceited; Mingle with those of low estate. Never pay back wrong with evil, Do what’s right in all men’s eyes. 4 Live at peace with every person; Avenge not—God metes out wrath; Give your enemy food and water: He may change his wicked path; Don’t let evil triumph o’er you; Overcome each wrong with good.

The Householder Sending Forth His Son

Author: William C. Dix Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13033 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 First Line: Night was resting on the people Lyrics: Part 1: 1 Night was resting on the people, Sin was out upon the world, Darkness, ere the prince of darkness, From his citadel was hurled, Ere the Prince of Peace, His standard O’er the realms of strife unfurled. 2 Heathen madly raged with heathen, Each with vain imagining; Brother hated, slew his brother, King went out to war with king, Till at length all ill abounded, And the dove of peace took wing. 3 All the nations sat in darkness, Loving best the veil of night; God they would not own as ruler, So they put Him out of sight; Then the flames of Hell they quickened, Trampled on the true and right. 4 Thus the vineyard God had planted Very good from east to west, Wicked husbandmen had ruined, Eating, drinking, taking rest, Cursing with their lusts and passions What the Householder had blest. 5 He had hedged about the vineyard, Dug the wine press, built the tower, Let it out and given orders, "Thou must serve and Thou have power," So that He of fruit might gather Treasure in the vintage hour. 6 One by one He sent His servants Till that hour should fully come; Some they beat, and some they stoned, Shamefully entreated some, They whose hearts were set on idols, Gods they fashioned, senseless, dumb. 7 Last of all, the vineyard’s Ruler, When the numbered days were run, Thought upon His loving-kindness, Sent the Sole-Begotten One, Sent His best Beloved, saying, "They will reverence My Son." 8 Thus the Father in His pity, Healed the world by guilt oppressed, Gave commandment to the Lowly, Bade her tabernacle rest, He Who made her, Israel’s Lily, Slumbered on her spotless breast. 9 O, the mystery of mercy! To the vineyard comes the Heir, Leaves the Father’s many mansions, Faithless husbandmen to spare, Clothes Himself with human nature, Deigns our very flesh to wear. 10 Heir of all things, we adore Him, Whom the wicked madly slew; "This the heir, come let us kill him.: Thus of old that godless crew Cast Him out the Father sent them, Thus they paid their Lord His due. Part 2: 11 Fair the vineyard which the Ageless Purchased with His own Right Hand. Where the husbandmen of Jesus In the place appointed stand, Some to sow, and some to gather, Some to break the fallow land. 12 Hedged about by Law and Prophets, This Inheritance Divine; Deep therein is dug the wine press, Whence flows Precious Blood for wine; There the Tower of Ivory glitters, Of Incarnate Grace the shrine. 13 There the four-fold river waters With its crystal stream the ground; Purest gold and precious onyx In its hidden depths abound; There, or good for food or pleasant, Every herb and tree are found. 14 Thus the Lord our God hath planted Eastward in the realm He made Garden, unto which He sendeth, Born today of spotless Maid, Him whose light the ancients longed for, Him for whom the prophets prayed. 15 Where are springing thorns and briers, He will make the curse to cease; Are there captives fast in fetters? He will give the bound release, Unto men of good-will, saying, "On the earth be good-will, peace!" 16 Surely now the world will greet Him, Heir of all the worlds sublime; Times, they say, are bad, disjointed; He is come, the Lord of Time; Men, they say, have grown more evil; He can stay the march of crime. 17 Do the hours of toil wax longer? He will share our weariness; Are there hands uplift to curse us? His are lifted up to bless; Are there words of hate about us? His are words of peacefulness. 18 O how happy the hereafter, When the better Eden gained, We look back upon the vineyard Where the labor was sustained, One hand working, one hand grasping Weapon while a foe remained! 19 Peace! the will of God the Father, As in Heav’n, in earth is done; Peace! the dreary years are ended; Peace! the days of strife are run; One the song of men and angels, "We will reverence the Son." 20 Hid beneath His fleshly garment, Many a crown and diadem Brings the Heir this blessèd morning, Journeying from Bethlehem; If He own us, if He bless us, Who is he that dares condemn?
