"His name Jesus"

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #395 (1888) Topics: Christ Character of First Line: Jesus! I love thy charming name Lyrics: 1 Jesus! I love thy charming name, 'Tis music to mine ear; Fain would I sound it out so loud, That earth and heaven should hear. 2 Yes!--thou art precious to my soul, My transport and my trust; Jewels, to thee, are gaudy toys, And gold is sordid dust. 3 All my capacious powers can wish, In thee doth richly meet; Not mine eyes is light so dear, Nor friendship half so sweet. 4 Thy grace still dwells upon my heart, And sheds its fragrance there;-- The noblest balm of all its wounds, The cordial of its care.

We long to track the footprints That thou thyself hast trod; We long to see the pathway That leads to thee our God. 3 O Jesus, shine around us With radiance of thy grace; O Jesus, turn upon us The brightness of thy face. We need no star to guide us, As on our way we press, If thou thy light vouchsafest, O Sun of righteousness! Scripture: Malachi 4:2 Languages: English Tune Title: SPITTA

Jesus, in Thee our Eyes behold

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXLV (1766) Topics: Characters of Christ Lyrics: 1 Jesus, in Thee our Eyes behold A Thousand Glories more Than the rich Gems and polish'd Gold The Sons of Aaron wore. 2 They first their own Burnt-off'rings brought, To purge themselves from Sin; Thy Life was pure, without a Spot, And all thy Nature clean. [3 Fresh Blood, as constant as the Day, Was on their Altar spilt; But thy one Off'ring takes away For ever all our Guilt.] [4 Their Priesthood ran through sev'ral Hands, For Mortal was their Race; Thy never-changing Office Stands, Eternal as thy Days.] [5 Once in the Circuit of a Year, With Blood, but not his own, Aaron within the Vale appears, Before the Golden Throne: 6 But Christ, by his own pow'rful Blood, Ascends above the Skies, And in the Presence of our God, Shews his own Sacrifice.] 7 Jesus, the King of Glory, reigns On Sion's heav'nly Hill; Looks like a Lamb that has been slain, And wears his Priesthood still. 8 He ever lives to intercede Before his Father's Face: Give him, my Soul, thy Cause to plead, Nor doubt the Father's Grace.

Join all the glorious names

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CL (1766) Topics: Characters of Christ Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious Names Of Wisdom, Love, and Pow'r, That ever Mortal knew, That Angels ever bore: All are too mean To speak his Worth, Too mean to set My Saviour forth. 2 But O what gentle Terms, What condescending Ways Doth our Redeemer use To teach his heav'nly Grace! Mine Eyes with Joy And Wonder see What Forms of Love He bears for me. [3 Array'd in mortal Flesh, He like an Angel stands, And holds the Promises And Pardons in his Hands; Commission'd from His Father's Throne, To make his Grace To Mortals known.] [4 Great Prophet of my God, My Tongue would bless thy Name; By Thee the joyful News Of our Salvation came; The joyful News Of Sins forgiv'n, Of Hell subdu'd, And peace with Heav'n.] [5 Be thou my Counsellor, My Pattern, and my Guide; And through this desart Land Still keep me near thy Side. O let my Feet Ne'er run astray, Nor rove, nor seek The crooked Way!] [6 I love my Shepherd's Voice, His watchful Eyes shall keep My wand'ring Soul among The Thousands of his Sheep: He feeds his Flock, He calls their Names, His Bosom bears The tender Lambs.] [7 To this dear Surety's Hand Will I commit my Cause; He answers and fulfills His Father's broken Laws. Behold my Soul At freedom set! My Surety paid The dreadful Debt.] [8 Jesus, my great High-Priest, Offer'd his Blood and dy'd; My guilty Conscience seeks No Sacrifice beside. His pow'rful Blood Did once atone? And now it pleads Before the Throne.] [9 My Advocate appears For my Defence on high; The Father bows his Ears, And lays his Thunder by. Not all that Hell Or Sin can say Shall turn his Heart, His Love, away.] [10 My dear Almighty Lord, My Conqu'eror and my King, Thy Scepter, and thy Sword, Thy reigning Grace I sing. Thine is the Pow'r; Behold I sit In willing Bonds Before thy Feet.] [11 Now let my Soul arise, And tread the Tempter down; My Captain leads me forth To Conquest and a Crown. A feeble Saint Shall win the Day, Though Death and Hell Obstruct the Way.] 12 Should all the Hosts of Death, And Pow'rs of Hell unknown, Put their most dreadful Forms Of Rage and Mischief on; I shall be safe, For Christ displays Superior Pow'r, And Guardian Grace Languages: English

Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BADEA
