A song of praise to the redeemer

Author: Dr. Turner Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCXLVII (1792) Topics: Song of praise to the Redeemer First Line: Holy wonder, heavenly grace Lyrics: 1 Holy wonder, heavenly grace, Come, inspire our humble lays, While the Savior's love we sing, Whence our hopes and comforts spring. 2 Man, involv'd in guilt and woe, Touch'd his tender bosom so, That, when justice death demands, Forth the great deliv'rer stands; 3 Cries to God, "thy mercy shew, "Lo! I come thy will to do; "I the sacrifice will be, "Death shall plunge his dart in me." 4 Tho' the form of God he bore, Great in glory, great in power, See him in our flesh array'd, Lower than his angels made. 5 [He that heaven itself possess'd, Now and infant at the breast! Angels from the world above, See and sing th' amazing love! 6 Thro' the shining hours of day, Toil and danger mark his way; Lonely mounts, and chilling air, Witness oft his midnight prayer.] 7 Now the heavenly lover dies! Darkness veils the mid-day skies! Angels round the bloody tree, Throng and gaze in ecstacy! 8 [Power unseen earth's bosom heaves, Rocks and tombs, asunder cleave; While the temple's rending veil Tells the pries the awful tale.] 9 But, the third day's dawning come, Lo! the Savior leaves the tomb! Reascends his native sky, Where he lives no more to die. 10 On his cross he builds his throne, Whence he makes his glories known, Sends his spirit down to give Dying sinners grace to live. Scripture: Psalm 40:7-8 Languages: English

Praise to the Redeemer

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CXLII (1791) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer First Line: Join all the glorious Names Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious Names Of Wisdom, Love, and Pow'r, That ever Mortals 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 thro' 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'ROR 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, Tho 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

Praise to the Redeemer

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCXXXV (1791) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer First Line: Plung"d in a Gulf of dark Despair Lyrics: 1 Plung'd in a Gulf of dark Despair We wretched Sinners lay, Without one cheerful Beam of Hope, Or Spark of glimm'ring Day. 2 With pitying Eyes the Prince of Grace Beheld our helpless Grief; He saw, and, (O amazing Love!) He ran to our Relief. 3 Down from the shining Seats above With Joyful Haste he fled; Enter'd the Grave in mortal Flesh, And dwelt among the Dead. 4 Oh! for this Love let Rocks and Hills Their lasting Silence break; And all harmonious human Tongues The Saviour's Praises speak. 5 Angels assist our mighty Joys, Strike all your Harps of Gold; But when you raise your highest Notes, His Love can ne'er be told.

God of the Seas, thy thund'ring Voice

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXX (1766) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 God of the Seas, thy thund'ring Voice Makes all the roaring Waves rejoice, And one soft Word of thy Command, Can sink them silent in the Sand. 2 If but a Moses, wave thy Rod, The Sea divides, and owns its God; The stormy Floods their Maker knew, And let his chosen Armies through. 3 The scaly Flocks amidst the Sea, To Thee, their Lord, a Tribute pay; The meanest Fish that swims the Flood Leaps up, and means a Praise to God. [4 The larger Monsters of the Deep On thy Commands Attendance keep; By thy Permission sport and play, And cleave along their foaming Way. 5 If God his Voice of Tempest rears, Leviathan lies still, and fears; Anon he lifts his Nostrils high, And spouts the Ocean to the Sky.] 6 How is thy glorious Pow'r ador'd Amidst these wat'ry Nations, Lord? Yet the bold Men that trace the Seas, Bold Men, refuse their Maker's Praise. [7 What Scenes of Miracles they see, And never tune a Song to Thee! While on the Flood they safely ride, They curse the Hand that smooths the Tide. 8 Anon they plunge in wat'ry Graves, And some drink Death among the Waves; Yet the surviving Crew blaspheme, Nor own the God that rescu'd them.] 9 O for some Signal of thine Hand! Shake all the Seas, Lord, shake the Land; Great Judge descend, lest Men deny That there's a God that rules the Sky. Languages: English

O what endless Charms Dwell in the blissful Sound! Its Influence ev'ry Fear disarms, And spreads sweet Comfort round. 3 Here pardon, Life, and Joys divine In rich Effusion flow, For guilty Rebels lost in Sin, And doom'd to endless Woe. 4 God's only Son, (stupendous Grace!) Forsook his Throne above; And swift to save our wretched Race, He flew on Wings of Love. 5 Th' Almighty former of the Skies Stoop'd to our vile Abode; While Angels view'd with wond'ring Eyes, And hail'd th' incarnate God. 6 O the rich Depths of Love divine! Of bliss, a boundless Store: Dear Saviour, let me call thee mine, I cannot wish for more. 7 On thee alone my Hope relies, Beneath thy Cross I fall. My Lord, my Life, my Sacrifice, My Saviour, and my all. Languages: English
