I Hear the Words of Love

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1. I hear the words of love, I gaze upon the blood, I see the mighty sacrifice, And I have peace with God. 2. ’Tis everlasting peace, Sure as Jehovah’s name; ’Tis stable as His steadfast throne, For evermore the same. 3. The clouds may go and come, And storms may sweep my sky; This blood-sealed friendship changes not, The cross is ever nigh. 4. I change—He changes not; The Christ can never die; His love, not mine, the resting-place; His truth, not mine, the tie. 5. My love is oftimes low, My joy still ebbs and flows; But peace with Him remains the same, No change Jehovah knows.

Oh, what, if we are Christ's

Author: Sir H. W. Baker Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 134 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oh, what, if we are Christ's, Is earthly shame or loss? Bright shall the crown of glory be When we have borne the cross. 2 Keen was the trial once, Bitter the cup of woe, When martyred saints, baptized in blood, Christ's sufferings shared below. 3 Bright is their glory now, Boundless their joy above, Where, on the bosom of their God, They rest in perfect love. 4 Lord, may that grace be ours, Like them in faith to bear All that of sorrow, grief, or pain, May be our portion here: 5 Enough, if Thou at last The word of blessing give, And let us rest beneath Thy feet, Where saints and angels live. Amen. Topics: All Saints; General Used With Tune: [Oh, what, if we are Christ's
