O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace

Author: Ambrose, d.297; John Chandler Appears in 85 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace, Thou Brightness of Thy Father's face, Thou Fountain of eternal light, Whose beams disperse the shades of night! 2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love, Send down Thy radiance from above; And to our inmost hearts convey The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray. 3 May He our actions deign to bless, And loose the bonds of wickedness, From sudden falls our feet defend, And guide us safely to the end. 4 May faith, deep-rooted in the soul, The flesh subdue, our minds control; May guile depart, and discord cease, And all within be joy and peace. 5 O hallowed thus be every day! Let meekness be our morning ray, And faithful love our noonday light, And hope our sunset, calm and bright. 6 O Christ, with each returning morn, Thine image to our hearts is borne; O may we ever clearly see Our Saviour and our God in Thee! Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Communion with Christ Used With Tune: WAREHAM

Amen.

The Time is Nigh

Author: P. P. Pratt Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: The time is nigh, the happy time Lyrics: 1. The time is nigh, the happy time, That great expected, blessed day, When countless thousands of our race Shall dwell with Christ, and Him obey. 2. The prophecies must be fulfilled, Though earth and hell should dare oppose; The stone out of the mountain cut, Though unobserved, a kingdom grows. 3. The blended image soon shall fall — Brass, silver, iron, gold and clay; And superstition's dreadful reign To light and liberty give way. 4. In one sweet symphony of praise, The Jews and Gentiles will unite; And infidelity o'ercome, Return again to endless night. 5. From east to west, from north to south, The Savior's kingdom shall extend, And ev'ry man in ev'ry place Shall meet a brother and a friend. Used With Tune: [The time is nigh, the happy time]
