Jesus, where'er thy people meet
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 515 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, where'er thy people meet,
there they behold thy mercy-seat;
where'er they seek thee thou art found,
and every place is hallowed ground.
2 For thou, within no walls confined,
inhabitest the humble mind;
such ever bring thee when they come,
and, going, take thee to their home.
3 Dear Shepherd of thy chosen few,
thy former mercies here renew;
here to our waiting hearts proclaim
the sweetness of thy saving name.
4 Here may we prove the pow'r of prayer
to strengthen faith and sweeten care,
to teach our faint desires to rise,
and bring all heaven before our eyes.
5 Lord, we are few, but thou art near;
nor short thine arm, nor deaf thine ear:
O rend the heav'ns, come quickly down,
and make a thousand hearts thine own. Topics: Opening Hymn; Year A Easter 2; Year B Advent 1; Year B Easter 2; Year B Easter 4; Year C Easter 2 Scripture: Hebrews 9:5 Used With Tune: ST SEPULCHRE
Jesus, where'er thy people meet
When at Thy Footstool, Lord, I Bend
Author: Henry F. Lyte Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 51 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1. When at Thy footstool, Lord, I bend,
And plead with Thee for mercy there,
Think of the sinner’s dying Friend,
And for His sake receive my prayer.
2. O think not of my shame and guilt,
My thousand stains of deepest dye;
Think of the blood which Jesus spilt,
And let that blood my pardon buy.
3. Think, Lord, how I am still Thine own,
The trembling creature of Thy hand;
Think how my heart to sin is prone,
And what temptations round me stand.
4. O think upon Thy holy Word,
And every plighted promise there;
How prayer should evermore be heard,
And how Thy glory is to spare.
5. O think not of my doubts and fears,
My strivings with Thy grace divine;
Think upon Jesus’ woes and tears,
And let His merits stand for mine.
6. Thine eyes, Thine ear, they are not dull;
Thine arm can never shortened be;
Behold me here; my heart is full;
Behold, and spare, and succor me. Used With Tune: ST. SEPULCHRE Text Sources: Poems Chiefly Religious, 1833

thou fount of life, thou light of men;
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to thee again.

thou savest those that on thee call;
to them that seek thee thou art good,
to them that find thee, all in all.
3 We taste thee, O thou living bread,
and long to feast upon thee still;
we drink of thee, the fountain-head,
and thirst our souls from thee to fill.
4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee,
where'er our changeful lot is cast,
glad when thy gracious smile we see,
blest when our faith can hold thee fast.

Deep Are the Wounds That Sin Has Made
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 165 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Deep are the wounds that sin has made;
Where shall the sinner find a cure?
In vain, alas! is nature’s aid;
The work exceeds all nature’s power.
2. And can no sovereign balm be found?
And is no kind physician nigh,
To ease the pain, and heal the wound,
Ere life and hope for ever fly?
3. There is a great Physician near;
Look up, O fainting soul, and live!
See in His heavenly smiles appear
Such ease as nature cannot give.
4. See in the dying Savior’s blood
Life, health, and bliss abundant flow!
’Tis only this dear, sacred flood
Can ease thy pain, and heal thy woe.
5. Sin throws in vain its pointed dart,
For here a sovereign cure is found,
A cordial for the fainting heart,
A balm for every painful wound. Used With Tune: ST. SEPULCHRE Text Sources: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, 1760
Deep Are the Wounds That Sin Has Made
Happy the Man Whose Cautious Feet
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 51 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Happy the man whose cautious feet
Shun the broad way that sinners go,
Who hates the place where atheists meet,
And fears to talk as scoffers do.
2. He loves t’employ the morning light
Amongst the statutes of the Lord;
And spends the wakeful hours of night,
With pleasure, pondering o’er His Word.
3. He, like a plant by gentle streams,
Shall flourish in immortal green;
And Heav’n will shine with kindest beams
On ev’ry work his hands begin.
4. But sinners find their counsels crossed:
As chaff before the tempest flies,
So shall their hopes be blown and lost,
When the last trumpet shakes the skies.
5. In vain the rebel seeks to stand
In judgment with the pious race;
The dreadful Judge, with stern command,
Divides him to a different place.
6. Straight is the way My saints have trod;
I blessed the path, and drew it plain;
But you would choose the crooked road,
And down it leads to endless pain. Used With Tune: ST. SEPULCHRE Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Author: William Walsham How, 1823-1897 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 97 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesu, when we stand afar
and gaze upon thy holy cross,
in love of thee and scorn of self,
O may we count the world as loss!
2 When we behold thy bleeding wounds,
and the rough way that thou hast trod,
make us to hate the load of sin
that lay so heavy on our God.
3 O holy Lord, uplifted high,
with outstretched arms, in mortal woe,
embracing in thy wondrous love
the sinful world that lies below.
4 Give us an ever-living faith,
go gaze beyond the things we see;
and in the mystery of thy Death
draw us and all men unto thee. Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Passion and Holy Week Used With Tune: ST SEPULCHRE

God of our life, to thee we call
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1809 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 170 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 God of our life, to thee we call,
afflicted at thy feet we fall;
when the great water-floods prevail,
leave not our trembling hearts to fail.
2 Friend of the friendless and the saint,
Where should we lodge our deep complaint?
Where but with thee, whose open door
invites the helpless and the poor?
3 Did ever mourner plead with thee,
and thou refuse that mourner’s plea?
Does not the Word still fixed remain,
that none shall seek thy face in vain?
4 Then hear, O Lord, our humble cry,
and bend on us thy pitying eye:
to thee their prayer thy people make,
hear us for our Redeemer's sake. Topics: General Hymns Trust in God Scripture: Psalm 46:1 Used With Tune: ST SEPULCHRE
God of our life, to thee we call
He sat to watch o'er customs paid
Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 He sat to watch o’er customs paid,
a man of scorned and hardening trade,
alike the symbol and the tool
of foreign masters’ hated rule.
2 But grace within his breast had stirred;
there needed but the timely word:
it came, true Lord of souls, from thee,
that royal summons, 'Follow me.'
3 Enough, when thou wast passing by,
to hear thy voice, to meet thine eye:
he rose, responsive to the call,
and left his task, his gains, his all.
4 O wise exchange! With these to part,
and lay up treasure in the heart –
who now with crown of light doth shine
among the apostolic line.
5 Come, Saviour, as in days of old;
pass where the world has strongest hold,
and faithless care and selfish greed
are thorns that choke the holy seed.
6 Who keep thy gifts, O bid them claim
the steward’s, not the owner’s name;
who yield all up for thy dear sake,
let them of Matthew’s wealth partake. Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days St. Matthew Scripture: Matthew 9:9-13 Used With Tune: ST SEPULCHRE
