The Lion Of Judah

Author: H. Q. Wilson Meter: 11.11.11 D Appears in 80 hymnals First Line: Twas Jesus, my Saviour, who died on the tree Refrain First Line: For the Lion of Judah shall break every chain Lyrics: 1 Twas Jesus, my Saviour, who died on the tree, To open a fountain for sinners like me; His blood is that fountain which pardon bestows, And cleanses the foulest wherever it flows. Refrain: For the Lion of Judah shall break every chain, And give us the victory, again and again. 2 And when I was willing with all things to part, He gave me His blessing, His love in my heart; So now I am joined with the conquering band Who are marching to glory at Jesus’ command. [Refrain] 3 Tho’ round me the storms of adversity roll, And the waves of destruction encompass my soul; In vain this frail vessel the tempest shall toss— My hope is secure through the blood of the cross. [Refrain] 4 And when with the ransomed, by Jesus, my head, From fountain to fountain I then shall be led; I’ll fall at His feet and His mercy adore, And sing hallelujah to God evermore. [Refrain] Used With Tune: KAIROS Text Sources: Waters' Choral Harp (New York: Horace Waters, 1863)

Now Let Us Rejoice

Author: W. W. Phelps Appears in 25 hymnals First Line: Now let us rejoice in the day of salvation Lyrics: 1. Now let us rejoice in the day of salvation, No longer as strangers on earth need we roam, Good tidings are sounding to us and each nation, And shortly the hour of redemption will come: When all that was promis'd the Saints will be given, And none will molest them from morn until ev'n, And earth will appear as the Garden of Eden, And Jesus will say to all Israel, Come home. 2. We'll love one another, and never dissemble, But cease to do evil, and ever be one; And when the ungodly are fearing, and tremble, We'll watch for the day when the Savior will come: When all that was promis'd the Saints will be given, And none will molest them from morn until ev'n, And earth will appear as the Garden of Eden, And Jesus will say to all Israel, Come home. 3.In faith we'll rely on the arm of Jehovah To guide thro' these last days of trouble and gloom, And, after the scourges and harvest are over, We'll rise with the just when the Savior doth come. Then all that was promis'd the Saints will be given, And they will be crowned with the angels of heav'n, And earth will appear as the Garden of Eden, And Christ and His people will ever be one. Used With Tune: [Now let us rejoice in the day of salvation]
