Ye Servants of God
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 669 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:8-11 First Line: Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim Lyrics: 1 Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim,
and publish abroad his wonderful name;
the name all-victorious of Jesus extol;
his kingdom is glorious, he rules over all.
2 Our God rules on high, almighty to save;
and still he is nigh, his presence we have;
the great congregation his triumph shall sing,
ascribing salvation to Jesus, our King.
3 Salvation to God, who sits on the throne!
Let all cry aloud and honor the Son;
the praises of Jesus the angels proclaim,
fall down on their faces and worship the Lamb.
4 Then let us adore and give him his right,
all glory and pow'r and wisdom and might,
all honor and blessing with angels above
and thanks never ceasing for infinite love. Topics: Worship; Christ--Adoration and praise; Christ--Name of Jesus; Christ--Victorious; Worship Used With Tune: LYONS
Ye Servants of God
Go to Dark Gethsemane
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 505 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:12-13 Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane,
all who feel the tempter’s power;
your Redeemer’s conflict see;
watch with him one bitter hour;
turn not from his griefs away;
learn from Jesus Christ to pray.
2 Follow to the judgment hall;
view the Lord of life arraigned;
O the wormwood and the gall!
O the pangs his soul sustained!
Shun not suffering, shame, or loss;
learn from him to bear the cross.
3 Calvary’s mournful mountain climb;
there, adoring at his feet,
mark that miracle of time,
God’s own sacrifice complete;
“It is finished!” hear him cry;
learn from Jesus Christ to die.
4 Early hasten to the tomb
where they laid his breathless clay:
all is solitude and gloom.
Who has taken him away?
Christ is risen! He meets our eyes.
Savior, teach us so to rise. Topics: Christian Year Palm Sunday; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Christian Year Good Friday; Christian Year Resurrection/Easter; Jesus Christ Passion and Death Used With Tune: REDHEAD 76

He lives, to bleed for me above;
He lives, my hungry soul to feed;
He lives, to help in time of need.
3 He lives, and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death;
He lives, my mansion to prepare--
He lives, to bring me safely there.

He lives--my Jesus, still the same;
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!

O God, my strength, my hope

On thee I cast my care,
With humble confidence look up,
And know thou hearest prayer.

A quick-discerning eye,
That looks to thee when sin is near,
And sees the tempter fly!

And armed with jealous care,
For ever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer!

Nor from my hope remove,
Till thou my patient spirit guide
To better worlds above. Topics: The Christian Life Humility and Watchfulness; Prayer for Self-Consecration

That awful day will surely come
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 367 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:7 Lyrics: 1 That awful day will surely come,

When I must stand before my Judge,
And pass the solemn test.

Thou Sovereign of my heart!
How could I bear to hear thy voice
Pronounce the sound, depart!

To see my God remove,
And fix my doleful station where
I must not taste his love!
4 Oh, tell me that my worthless name
Is graven on thy hands;
Show me some promise in thy Book,
Where my salvation stands. Topics: Resurrection and Judgment; Certainty of the Judgment

New Every Morning Is the Love
Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:1-8 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love
our wakening and uprising prove;
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life and power and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 If on our daily course our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be,
as more of heaven in each we see;
some softening gleam of love and prayer
shall dawn on every cross and care.
5 The trivial round, the common task,
will furnish all we ought to ask;
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
6 Only, O Lord, in thy dear love,
fit us for perfect rest above;
and help us, this and every day,
to live more nearly as we pray. Topics: Morning; Love Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

And will the Judge descend?`
Author: Doddridge Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 305 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:17-18 Lyrics: 1 And will the Judge descend?
And must the dead arise?
And not a single soul escape
His all-discerning eyes?
2 How will my heart endure
The terrors of that day,
When earth and heaven, before his face,
Astonished, shrink away?
3 But, ere the trumpet shakes
The mansions of the dead,
Hark! from the gospel's cheering sound
What joyful tidings spread!
4 Come, sinners, seek his grace,
Whose wrath ye cannot bear;
Fly to the shelter of his cross,
And find salvation there. Topics: Resurrection and Judgment; Preparation for the Judgment

Prepare to meet God
Author: William B. Collyer Appears in 296 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 4:18 First Line: Great God, what do I see and hear! Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of man I see appear,
On clouds of glory seated:
The trumpet sounds; the graves restore
The dead which they contained before;
Prepare, my soul, to meet him.
2 The dead in Christ shall first arise,
At the last trumpet's sounding--
Caught up to meet him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay,
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet him.
3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold his wrath prevailing;
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing:
The day of grace is past and gone;
Trembling they stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet him.
4 Great God! what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of man I see appear,
On clouds of glory seated:
Beneath his cross I view the day
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepared to meet him.
