Jesus, Name of Wondrous Love

Author: William W. How Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 169 hymnals First Line: Jesus! Name of wondrous love Lyrics: 1. Jesus! Name of wondrous love! Name all other names above! Unto which must every knee Bow in deep humility. 2. Jesus! Name of priceless worth To the fallen sons of earth, For the promise that it gave— Jesus shall His people save. 3. Jesus! Name decreed of old, To the maiden mother told— Kneeling in her lowly cell— By the angel Gabriel. 4. Jesus! Name of mercy mild, Given to the holy Child, When the cup of human woe First He tasted here below. 5. Jesus! Only name that’s given Under all the mighty heaven, Whereby man, to sin enslaved, Bursts his fetters, and is saved. 6. Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Human name of God above! Pleading only this, we flee, Helpless, O our God, to Thee. Used With Tune: GOTT SEI DANK Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns, 1854

On this day, the first of days

Author: Henry W. Baker Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 87 hymnals Lyrics: On this day, the first of days, God the Father's Name we praise: Who, creation's Lord and Spring, Did the world from darkness bring. On this day the Eternal Son Over death his triumph won; On this day the Spirit came With his gifts of living flame. O that fervent love today May in every heart have sway, Teaching us to praise aright God, the Source of life and light. Father, who didst fashion me Image of thyself to be, Fill me with thy love divine, Let my every thought be thine. Holy Jesus, may I be Dead and buried here with thee; And, by love inflamed, arise Unto thee a sacrifice. Thou, who dost all gifts impart, Shine, blest Spirit, in my heart; Best of gifts thyself bestow; Make me burn thy love to know. God, the blessed Three in One, Dwell within my heart alone; Thou dost give thyself to me, May I give myself to thee. Amen.

For Thy mercy and Thy grace

Author: H. Downton Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 For Thy mercy and Thy grace, Constant through another year, Hear our song of thankfulness; Jesus, our Redeemer, hear. 2 Lo, our sins on Thee we cast, Thee, our perfect sacrifice; And, forgetting all the past, Press toward our glorious prize. 3 Dark the future; let Thy light Guide us, bright and morning Star: Fierce our foes, and hard the fight; Arm us, Savior, for the war. 4 In our weakness and distress, Rock of strength, be Thou our stay; In the pathless wilderness Be our true and living way. 5 Who of us death's awful road In the coming year shall tread? With Thy rod and staff, O God, Comfort Thou his dying bed. 6 Keep us faithful, keep us pure, Keep us evermore Thine own; Help, O help us to endure; Fit us for the promised crown.
