Oh, happy is the man who hears
Author: Logan Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 301 hymnals Scripture: James 5:11 Lyrics: 1 Oh, happy is the man who hears
Instruction's warning voice,
And who celestial wisdom makes
His early, only choice.
2 For she hath treasures greater far
Than east or west unfold,
And her rewards more precious are
Than gems or stores of gold.
3 Her right hand offers to the just
Immortal, happy days;
Her left, imperishable wealth
And heavenly crowns displays.
4 She guides the young with innocence,
In pleasure's paths to tread;
A crown of glory she bestows
Upon the hoary head.
5 And as her holy labors rise,
So her rewards increase;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace. Topics: The Christian Life Honor and Influence; Happy is the Man that findeth Wisdom

trusting him till earth be past,
till within the jasper wall,
trusting Jesus– that is all. [Refrain]

At the Name of Jesus
Author: Caroline Maria Noel (1817-1877) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 253 hymnals Scripture: James 5:7-11 First Line: At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow Lyrics: 1 At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow,
every tongue confess him King of glory now;
'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord,
who from the beginning was the mighty Word.
2 Humbled for a season to receive a name
from the lips of sinners unto whom he came,
faithfully he bore it spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious when from death he passed;
3 Name him, Christians, name him, with love strong as death,
but with awe and wonder, and with bated breath;
he is God the Saviour, he is Christ the Lord,
ever to be worshipped, trusted, and adored.
5 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue
all that is not holy, all that is not true;
crown him as your Saviour in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you in its light and power.
5 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again,
with his Father's glory, with his angel train;
for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow,
and our hearts confess him King of Glory now. Topics: Praise of God; Reign of Christ; Name of Jesus; Ascension and Exaltation Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON

Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 222 hymnals Scripture: James 5:13-20 Lyrics: 1 Lord, teach us how to pray aright
with reverence and with fear;
though dust and ashes in thy sight,
we may, we must, draw near.
2 We perish if we cease from prayer:
O grant us power to pray;
and, when to meet thee we prepare,
Lord, meet us by the way.
3 God of all grace, we bring to thee
a broken, contrite heart;
give what thine eye delights to see,
truth in the inward part;
4 Faith in the only sacrifice
that can for sin atone,
to cast our hopes, to fix our eyes,
on Christ, on Christ alone;
5 Patience to watch and wait and weep,
though mercy long delay;
courage our fainting souls to keep,
and trust thee though thou slay.
6 Give these, and then thy will be done;
thus, strengthened with all might,
we, through thy Spirit and thy Son,
shall pray, and pray aright. Topics: Atonement; Courage; Faith; Lent; Patience; Penitence; Prayer; Proper 20 Year C; Prayer & Intercession Used With Tune: ST HUGH

To form a sacred song;
Ye pilgrims, in Jehovah's ways,
With musick pass along.

How open and how fair!
No lurking gins t' entrap our feet;
No fierce destroyer there.

In rich profusion spring;
The Sun of glory gilds the path,
And dear companions sing.
4 See Salem's golden spires
In beauteous prospect rise;
And brighter crowns than mortals wear,
Which sparkle thro' the skies.

Who marks the shining way:
To him, who leads the wand'rers on
To realms of endless day. Topics: The Hope, that maketh not Ashamed: a Hope full of Immortality
