Your God will needful aid bestow,
And on your labors shine.

Will recompense your pains;
Before Messiah’s conquering car,
The mountains sink to plains.

But plead your Master’s cause;
Nor doubt that e’en your mighty foes
Shall bow before His cross. Used With Tune: FAR AND NEAR Text Sources: Evangelical Magazine, December 1818, alt.

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 55 hymnals First Line: Who shall inhabit in Thy hill Lyrics: 1. Who shall inhabit in Thy hill,
O God of holiness?
Whom will the Lord admit to dwell
So near His throne of grace?
2. The man that walks in pious ways,
And works with righteous hands;
That trusts his maker’s promises,
And follows His commands.
3. He speaks the meaning of his heart,
Nor slanders with his tongue;
Will scarce believe an ill report,
Nor do his neighbor wrong.
4. The wealthy sinner he contemns,
Loves all that fear the Lord;
And though to his own hurt he swears,
Still he performs his word.
5. His hands disdain a golden bribe,
And never gripe the poor:
This man shall dwell with God on earth,
And find his Heav’n secure. Used With Tune: FAR AND NEAR (SPazier) Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Go tell it to his friend,
That soon in every place shall dawn
His kingdom without end.

Are whelmed beneath the sea;
And every heart now light and brave
May face the things to be.
4. The way of darkness that He trod
To heaven at last shall come,
And he who hearkens to His Word
Shall reach His Father’s home.
5. Now let the mourner grieve no more
Though his belovèd sleep:
A happier meeting shall restore
Their light to eyes that weep.
6. He lives! His presence hath not ceased,
Though foes and fears be rife;
And thus we hail in Easter’s feast
A world renewed to life! Used With Tune: FAR AND NEAR (Spazier) Text Sources: Lyra Germanica, 1858

Hosanna To The Prince Of Grace
Bleak Winter Is Subdued At Length
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Bleak winter is subdued at length,
And forced to yield the day;
The sun has wasted all his strength,
And driven him away.
2 And now long wished for spring is come,
How altered is the scene!
The trees and shrubs are dressed in bloom,
The earth arrayed in green.
3 Where’er we tread, beneath our feet
The clustering flowers spring;
The artless birds, in concert sweet,
Invite our hearts to sing.
4 But ah! in vain I strive to join
Oppressed with sin and doubt;
I feel ’tis winter still, within,
Tho’ all is spring without.
5 Oh! would my Savior from on high,
Break thro’ these clouds and shine!
No creature, then, more blest than I,
No song more loud than mine.
6 Till then—no softly warbling thrush,
Nor cowslip’s sweet perfume;
Nor beauties of each painted bush,
Can dissipate my gloom.
7 To Adam, soon as he transgressed,
Thus Eden bloomed in vain;
Not paradise could give him rest,
Or soothe his heartfelt pain.
8 Yet here an emblem I perceive
Of what the Lord can do;
Dear Savior, help me to believe
That I may flourish, too.
9 Thy word can soon my hopes revive,
Can overcome my foes;
And make my languid graces thrive,
And blossom like the rose. Used With Tune: FAR AND NEAR Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 2
Bleak Winter Is Subdued At Length
When Hagar Found the Bottle Spent
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1. When Hagar found the bottle spent,
And wept o’er Ishmael,
A message from the Lord was sent
To guide her to a well.
2. Should not Elijah’s cake and cruse
Convince us at this day,
A gracious God will not refuse
Provisions by the way?
3. His saints and servants shall be fed,
The promise is secure;
Bread shall be given them, He has said,
Their water shall be sure.
4. Repasts far richer they shall prove
Than all earth’s dainties are;
’Tis sweet to taste a Savior’s love,
Though in the meanest fare.
5. To Jesus then your trouble bring,
Nor murmur at your lot;
While you art poor, and He is king,
You shall not be forgot. Used With Tune: FAR AND NEAR (Spazier) Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 57
When Hagar Found the Bottle Spent
All Hail, Thou Day Of Wondrous Grace
Author: H. Brueckner Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 All hail, thou day of wondrous grace,
My confirmation day,
When I the steps of God retrace,
Imprinted on my way.
2 When I was but an infant small,
He pledged His love to me;
He called me with a holy call
His child and heir to be.
3 The sacred washing I received,
That cleansed me well from sin;
Of ev'ry guilty stain relieved,
I now have peace within.
4 From parents kind and teachers true,
By Thee, my God, ordained,
I learned Thy holy will to do,
By faith in Christ sustained.
5 So now I come before Thy throne,
Thy precious name to bless,
Resolved to serve Thee as Thine own
In truth and holiness.
6 I consecrate myself to Thee
In body, soul and mind;
Do Thou but help and strengthen me,
Thou Hope of all mankind.
7 While in this world of sin and strife,
Vouchsafe to me Thy grace
Till I have reached the end of life
And see Thee face to face. Topics: Confirmation Used With Tune: SPAZIER
