A song of praise to the redeemer
Author: Dr. Turner Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCXLVII (1792) Topics: Song of praise to the Redeemer First Line: Holy wonder, heavenly grace Lyrics: 1 Holy wonder, heavenly grace,
Come, inspire our humble lays,
While the Savior's love we sing,
Whence our hopes and comforts spring.
2 Man, involv'd in guilt and woe,
Touch'd his tender bosom so,
That, when justice death demands,
Forth the great deliv'rer stands;
3 Cries to God, "thy mercy shew,
"Lo! I come thy will to do;
"I the sacrifice will be,
"Death shall plunge his dart in me."
4 Tho' the form of God he bore,
Great in glory, great in power,
See him in our flesh array'd,
Lower than his angels made.
5 [He that heaven itself possess'd,
Now and infant at the breast!
Angels from the world above,
See and sing th' amazing love!
6 Thro' the shining hours of day,
Toil and danger mark his way;
Lonely mounts, and chilling air,
Witness oft his midnight prayer.]
7 Now the heavenly lover dies!
Darkness veils the mid-day skies!
Angels round the bloody tree,
Throng and gaze in ecstacy!
8 [Power unseen earth's bosom heaves,
Rocks and tombs, asunder cleave;
While the temple's rending veil
Tells the pries the awful tale.]
9 But, the third day's dawning come,
Lo! the Savior leaves the tomb!
Reascends his native sky,
Where he lives no more to die.
10 On his cross he builds his throne,
Whence he makes his glories known,
Sends his spirit down to give
Dying sinners grace to live.

A song of praise to the redeemer
Praise to the Redeemer
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CXLII (1791) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer First Line: Join all the glorious Names Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious Names
Of Wisdom, Love, and Pow'r,
That ever Mortals knew,
That Angels ever bore:
All are too mean
To speak his Worth,
Too mean to set
My SAVIOUR forth.
2 But, O what gentle Terms,
What condescending Ways
Doth our REDEEMER use
To teach his heav'nly Grace!
Mine Eyes with Joy
And Wonder see
What Forms of Love
He bears for me.
[3 Array'd in Mortal Flesh,
He like an ANGEL stands,
And holds the Promises
And Pardons in his Hands:
Commission'd from
His Father's Throne
To make his Grace
To Mortals known.]
[4 Great PROPHET of my GOD,
My Tongue would bless thy Name;
By thee the joyful News
Of our Salvation came;
The joyful News
Of Sins forgiv'n,
Of Hell subdu'd,
And peace with heav'n.]
[5 Be thou my COUNSELLOR,
My Pattern, and my GUIDE;
And thro' this Desart Land
Still keep me near thy Side.
O let my feet
Ne'er run astray,
Nor rove, nor seek
The crooked Way!]
[6 I love my SHEPHERD's Voice,
His watchful Eyes shall keep
My wand'ring Soul among
The Thousands of his Sheep:
He feeds his Flock,
He calls their Names,
His Bosom bears
The tender lambs.]
[7 To this dear Surety's Hand
Will I commit my Cause;
He answers and fulfills
His Father's broken Laws
Behold my Soul
At Freedom set;
My Surety paid
The dreadful Debt.]
[8 Jesus, my great HIGH PRIEST,
Offer'd his Blood and dy'd;
My guilty Conscience seeks
No Sacrifice beside.
His pow'rful Blood
Did once atone,
And now it pleads
Before the Throne.]
[9 My ADVOCATE appears
For my Defence on High;
The Father bows his Ears,
And lays his Thunder by:
Not all that Hell
Or Sin can say
Shall turn his Heart,
His Love away.]
[10 My dear Almighty LORD,
My CONQU'ROR and my KING,
Thy scepter and thy Sword,
Thy reigning Grace I sing:
Thine is the Pow'r;
Behold, I sit
In willing Bonds
Before thy Feet.]
[11 Now let my Soul arise,
And tread the Tempter down;
My CAPTAIN leads me forth
To Conquest and a Crown:
A feeble Saint
Shall win the Day,
Tho Death and Hell
Obstruct the way.]
12 Should all the Hosts of Death,
And Pow'rs of Hell unknown,
Put their most dreadful Forms
Of Rage and Mischief on,
I shall be safe,
For Christ displays
Superior Pow'r,
And guardian Grace Languages: English

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCXXXV (1791) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer First Line: Plung"d in a Gulf of dark Despair Lyrics: 1 Plung'd in a Gulf of dark Despair
We wretched Sinners lay,
Without one cheerful Beam of Hope,
Or Spark of glimm'ring Day.
2 With pitying Eyes the Prince of Grace
Beheld our helpless Grief;
He saw, and, (O amazing Love!)
He ran to our Relief.
3 Down from the shining Seats above
With Joyful Haste he fled;
Enter'd the Grave in mortal Flesh,
And dwelt among the Dead.
4 Oh! for this Love let Rocks and Hills
Their lasting Silence break;
And all harmonious human Tongues
The Saviour's Praises speak.
5 Angels assist our mighty Joys,
Strike all your Harps of Gold;
But when you raise your highest Notes,
His Love can ne'er be told. Languages: English

Praise to God
God of the Seas, thy thund'ring Voice
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXX (1766) Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 God of the Seas, thy thund'ring Voice
Makes all the roaring Waves rejoice,
And one soft Word of thy Command,
Can sink them silent in the Sand.
2 If but a Moses, wave thy Rod,
The Sea divides, and owns its God;
The stormy Floods their Maker knew,
And let his chosen Armies through.
3 The scaly Flocks amidst the Sea,
To Thee, their Lord, a Tribute pay;
The meanest Fish that swims the Flood
Leaps up, and means a Praise to God.
[4 The larger Monsters of the Deep
On thy Commands Attendance keep;
By thy Permission sport and play,
And cleave along their foaming Way.
5 If God his Voice of Tempest rears,
Leviathan lies still, and fears;
Anon he lifts his Nostrils high,
And spouts the Ocean to the Sky.]
6 How is thy glorious Pow'r ador'd
Amidst these wat'ry Nations, Lord?
Yet the bold Men that trace the Seas,
Bold Men, refuse their Maker's Praise.
[7 What Scenes of Miracles they see,
And never tune a Song to Thee!
While on the Flood they safely ride,
They curse the Hand that smooths the Tide.
8 Anon they plunge in wat'ry Graves,
And some drink Death among the Waves;
Yet the surviving Crew blaspheme,
Nor own the God that rescu'd them.]
9 O for some Signal of thine Hand!
Shake all the Seas, Lord, shake the Land;
Great Judge descend, lest Men deny
That there's a God that rules the Sky. Languages: English

A sov'reign Balm for ev'ry Wound,
A Cordial for our Fear.

Bury'd in Sorrow, and in Sin,
At Hell's dark Door we lay;
But we arise by Grace Divine
To see an heav'nly Day.
Glory, Honour, Praise and Power,
Be unto the Lamb for ever;
Jesus Christ is our Redeemer.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halleujah! Praise the Lord.

The spacious Earth around;

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #353 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 To our Redeemer's glorious name
Awake the sacred song!
O may his love (immortal flame!)
Tune every heart and tongue.
2 His love what mortal thought can reach!
What mortal tongue display!
Imagination's utmost stretch
In wonder dies away.
3 He left his radiant throne on high,
Left the bright realms of bliss,
And came to earth to bleed and die!--
Was ever love like this?
4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to thee,
May every heart with rapture say,
"The Saviour died for me."

Fill every heart and tongue:
Till strangers love Thy charming name,
And join the sacred song.

With thy immortal Flame;
And teach my Heart, to teach my Tongue,
The Saviour's lovely Name.
2 The Saviour! O what endless Charms
Dwell in the blissful Sound!
Its Influence ev'ry Fear disarms,
And spreads sweet Comfort round.
3 Here pardon, Life, and Joys divine
In rich Effusion flow,
For guilty Rebels lost in Sin,
And doom'd to endless Woe.
4 God's only Son, (stupendous Grace!)
Forsook his Throne above;
And swift to save our wretched Race,
He flew on Wings of Love.
5 Th' Almighty former of the Skies
Stoop'd to our vile Abode;
While Angels view'd with wond'ring Eyes,
And hail'd th' incarnate God.
6 O the rich Depths of Love divine!
Of bliss, a boundless Store:
Dear Saviour, let me call thee mine,
I cannot wish for more.
7 On thee alone my Hope relies,
Beneath thy Cross I fall.
My Lord, my Life, my Sacrifice,
My Saviour, and my all.

Eternal Anthems sing;

Our Hallalujahs bring.
4 Had we our Tongues like them insir'd,
Like theirs our Songs should rise;
Like them we never should be tir'd,
But Love the Sacrifice.
5 Till we this veil of Flesh lay down,
Accept our weaker Lays;
And when, O Lord, we reach thy Throne,
We'll join in nobler Praise. Languages: English

Let the old Heathens tune their Song

Of great Diana and of Jove,
But the sweet Theme that moves my Tongue

2 Behold a God descends and dies,
To save my Soul from gaping Hell;
How the black Gulph where Satan lies
Yawn'd to receive me when I fell!
3 How Justice frown'd, and Vengeance stood,
To drive me down to endless Pain!
But the great Son propos'd his Blood,
And heav'nly Wrath grew mild again.

To Thee be endless Honour giv'n;
Thy wond'rous Name shall be ador'd
Round the wide Earth, and wider Heav'n.

O that I had a seraph's fire
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #340 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Praise to the Redeemer Lyrics: 1 O that I had a seraph's fire,
His rapt'rous song and golden lyre,
To chant the love and grace supreme,
Reveal'd as in the gospel scheme.
2 Here's pardon full, for sins that's past--
It matters not how black their cast;
And, O my soul, with wonder view,
For sins to come, here's pardon too.
3 When Jesus died, our debts were paid,
Our sins laid on this Scape-Goat's head;
Were to the trackless desert drove,
And buried in eternal love.
4 In this abyss of love profound,
When sought for they shall not be found;
Hid from Jehovah's piercing eye,
There in oblivion's shades, they lie.
