Precious Lord, Take My Hand
This is the day the Lord hath made
Appears in 605 hymnals Scripture: Luke 24:34 Used With Tune: CROSS AND CROWN
This is the day the Lord hath made
Father, I Long, I Faint To See
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 102 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, I long, I faint to see
The place of Thine abode;
I’d leave Thine earthly courts, and flee
Up to Thy seat, my God!
2 Here I behold Thy distant face,
And ’tis a pleasing sight;
But to abide in Thine embrace
Is infinite delight.
3 I’d part with all the joys of sense
To gaze upon Thy throne;
Pleasure springs fresh for ever thence,
Unspeakable, unknown.
4 There all the heav’nly hosts are seen,
In shining ranks they move,
And drink immortal vigor in
With wonder and with love.
5 Then at Thy feet with awful fear
Th’ adoring armies fall;
With joy they shrink to nothing there,
Before th’ eternal All.
6 There I would vie with all the host
In duty and in bliss;
While "less than nothing" I could boast,
And "vanity confess."
7 The more Thy glories strike mine eyes
The humbler I shall lie;
Thus while I sink, my joys shall rise
Unmeasurably high.

Thy Greatness, Lord
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Thy greatness, Lord, what thought can reach Lyrics: 1 Thy greatness, Lord, what thought can reach,
What mortal tongue can tell?
Thy throne is fixed, Thy power extends,
O’er Heaven and earth and hell.
2 Who can evade or who resist,
The vengeance of a God?
Thy wrath vindictive, once provoked,
Spreads terror all abroad.
3 The wide dominion and the power,
The sovereignty is Thine;
‘Tis Thine the universe to rule,
With majesty divine.
4 To Thee, by all the hosts of Heaven,
By all the human race,
Be everlasting honors given,
And universal praise. Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Hymns Adapted to Public Worship (London: Burton and Briggs,1818)

How shall the young secure their hearts
While Sinners Utter Boasting Words
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While sinners utter boasting words,
And glory in their shame;
The Lord, well pleased, an ear affords
To those who fear His name.
2 They often meet to seek His face,
And what they do or say,
Is noted in His book of grace,
Against another day.
3 For they, by faith, a day descry,
A joyfully expect,
When He, descending from the sky,
His jewels will collect.
4 Unnoticed now, because unknown,
A poor and suffering few;
He comes to claim them for His own,
And bring them forth to view.
5 With transport then, their Savior’s care
And favor they shall prove;
As tender parents guard and spare
The children of their love.
6 Assembled worlds will then discern
The saints alone are blest;
When wrath shall like an oven burn,
And vengeance strike the rest. Used With Tune: MAITLAND
