"Lift up your hearts!" We lift them, Lord, to Thee
Author: Henry Montague Butler (1833-1918) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Lift up your hearts!" We lift them, Lord, to Thee;
Here at Thy feet none other may we see:
"Lift up your hearts!" E'en so, with one accord,
We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord.
2 Above the level of the former years,
The mire of sin, the weight of guilty fears,
The mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay,
O Lord of Light, lift all our hearts today!
3 Lift every gift that Thou Thyself hast given:
Low lies the best till lifted up to heaven;
Low lie the bounding heart, the teeming brain,
Till, sent from God, they mount to God again.
4 Then, as the trumpet call in after years,
"Lift up your hearts!" rings pealing in our ears,
Still shall those hearts respond with full accord,
"We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!"
Amen. Topics: The Life in Christ Aspiration Used With Tune: WOODLANDS

Tell Out, My Soul
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 60 hymnals First Line: Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord!
Unnumbered blessings give my spirit voice;
tender to me the promise of his word;
in God my Savior shall my heart rejoice.
2 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his name!
Make known his might, the deeds his arm has done;
his mercy sure, from age to age the same;
his holy name the Lord, the Mighty One.
3 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his might!
Powers and dominions lay their glory by.
Proud hearts and stubborn wills are put to flight,
the hungry fed, the humble lifted high.
4 Tell out, my soul, the glories of his word!
Firm is his promise, and his mercy sure.
Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord
to children's children and forevermore!
