Jesus, and Shall it Ever be
Author: Joseph Grigg, 1720-1768 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,296 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be,
A mortal man, ashamed of Thee?
Ashamed of Thee, whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days.
2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star!
He sheds the beams of light divine
O’er this benighted soul of mine.
3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon
Let midnight be ashamed of noon;
'Tis midnight with my soul, till He,
Bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee.
4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend
On whom my hopes of heaven depend!
No; when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere His name.
5 Soon shall He come with power to bless
All who do here His Name confess;
And then may this my glory be,
That He is not ashamed of me!
Amen.

Jesus, and Shall it Ever be
O happy day, that stays my choice
Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,767 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O happy day, that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.
2 O happy bond, that seals my vows
To Him who merits all my love!
Let cheerful anthems fill His house,
While to that sacred shrine I move.
3 'Tis done, the great transaction's done;
I am my Lord's, and He is mine:
He drew me, and I followed on,
Glad to obey the voice divine.
4 Now rest, my long-divided heart,
Fixed on this blissful centre, rest;
With ashes who would grudge to part,
When called on angels' bread to feast!
5 High heaven, that heard the solemn vow,
That vow renewed shall daily hear;
Till in life's latest hour I bow,
And bless in death a bond so dear. Topics: The Means of Grace Confirmation Used With Tune: BLENDON
O happy day, that stays my choice
Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims
Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 73 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims
His various and His saving names;
Oh, may they not be heard alone,
But by our sure experience known.
2 Awake, our noblest powers, to bless
The God of Abra'm, God of peace;
Now by a dearer title known,
Father and God of Christ His Son.
3 Through every age His gracious ear
Is open to His servants' prayer;
Nor can one humble soul complain
That it hath sought its God in vain.
4 What unbelieving heart shall dare
In whispers to suggest a fear,
While still He owns His ancient name,
The same His power, His love the same.
5 To Thee our souls in faith arise,
To Thee we lift expecting eyes,
And boldly through the desert tread,
For God will guard, where God shall lead.
Amen. Topics: Faith Assurance of; God Deliverer; God Faithfulness of; Praise To God Used With Tune: BLENDON

Give to our God immortal praise!
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 327 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Give to our God immortal praise!
Mercy and truth are all His ways.
Wonders of grace to God belong;
Repeat His mercies in your song.
2 Give to the Lord of lords renown,
The King of kings with glory crown,
His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more.

From guilt and darkness and the grave.
Wonders of grace to God belong:
Repeat His mercies in your song.

And leads us to his heavenly seat:
His mercies ever shall endure,
When this our world shall be no more.
