Gazing On The Lord In Glory

Author: Cenita Thompson Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gazing on the Lord in glory, While our hearts in worship bow, There we read the wondrous story Of the cross—its shame and woe. 2 Every mark of dark dishonor Heaped upon the thorn-crowned brow, All the depths of Thy heart’s sorrow Told in answering glory now. 3 On that cross alone—forsaken— Where no pitying eye was found; Now to God’s right hand exalted, With Thy praise the heav’ns resound. 4 Did Thy God e’en then forsake Thee, Hide His face from Thy deep need? In Thy face, once marred and smitten, All His glory now we read. 5 Gazing on it we adore Thee, Blessed, precious, holy Lord; Thou, the Lamb, alone art worthy: This be earth’s and Heav’n’s accord. 6 Rise, our hearts, and bless the Father, Ceaseless song e’en here begun, Endless praise and adoration To the Father and the Son. Used With Tune: RHINELAND Text Sources: A Few Hymns and Some Spiritual Songs. Selected 1856, for the Little Flock, Revised 1881 by John Nelson Darby and George V. Wigram (London: G. Morrish, 1881)

Lef för Jesus

Author: Lina Sandell Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Lef för Jesus – intet annat Lyrics: 1 Lef för Jesus – intet annat Är dock värdt att kallas lif. Åt den vännen framför andra Hjärtats första kärlek gif! 2 Lef för Jesus – världens äflan, Rykte, rikedom och glans Gifva aldrig åt din ande Blott en times frid som hans. 3 Lef för Jesus – samla själar Kring hans dyra kordsbaner! Skynda, innan natten kommer, Då du ej kan verka mer. 4 Tusen, tusen arma själar Sucka efter lif och frid: Säg dem något ord om Jesus, medan du ännu har tid. 5 Säg dem blott, hvad själf du funnit, vittna om hvad själf du sett, Om den kärlek utan like, Om den nåd han dig betett. 6 Lef för Jesus – gif åt honom Lifvets sköna vårdag - men Gif ock mannaålderns styrka Och den sena hösten än! 7 Gif dig helt, ty det begär han; Själf han gaf sig helt åt dig, När han, fattig och föraktad, Gick härnere korsets stig. 8 Gif dig helt, och vet, att ingen Än förlorat däruppå! Lef för Jesus, tills du salig In uti hans ro får gå! Topics: Verksamhet Used With Tune: HAR DU MOD ATT FÖLJA JESUS?

Is Thy Cruse of Comfort Wasting?

Author: Elizabeth R. Charles Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 45 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Is thy cruse of comfort wasting? Rise, and with thy brother share. And through all the years of famine On its bounty ye shall fare. 2. Love divine will fill thy storehouse, Or thy handful still renew; Scanty fare for one will often Make a royal feast for two. 3. For the heart grows rich in giving; All its wealth is living grain; Seeds, which mildew in the garner, Scattered, fill with gold the plain. 4. Is thy burden hard and heavy, Do thy steps drag wearily? Help to bear thy brother’s burden; God will bear both it and thee. 5. Numb and weary on the mountains, Wouldst thou sleep amidst the snow? Chafe the frozen form beside thee, And together both shall grow. 6. Art thou stricken in life’s battle? Many wounded round thee moan; Lavish on their wounds thy balsams And that balm shall heal thine own. 7. Is the heart a well left empty? None but God its void can fill; Nothing but a ceaseless fountain Can its ceaseless longings still. 8. Is the heart a living power? Self entwined, its strength sinks low; It can only live in loving, And by serving love will grow. Used With Tune: CHARLES Text Sources: The Three Wakings, and Other Poems, 1859
