Acquaint Thyself With Him

Author: Julia H. Johnston Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: A form at the threshold, a stranger behold Refrain First Line: Acquaint thyself with Him as meekly He stands Lyrics: 1 A form at the threshold, a stranger behold, He offers thee blessings, yea, treasures untold, Oh, kingly and fair is the One at thy door, Ye surely have heard Him,—He knocketh once more. Refrain: Acquaint thyself with Him as meekly He stands, And knocks at the portal with nail-pierced hands; ‘Tis Jesus, ‘tis Jesus,—how long shall He wait? Acquaint thyself with Him, fling open the gate. 2 The King on His journey has come from afar Where yonder the gates of the morning unbar; His kingdom is royal,—and yet He seeks thee, That with Him in glory ye also may be. [Refrain] 3 The path He has trod is the way of the cross, Acquaint thyself with Him,—count all things but loss; To know Him as Saviour is life evermore, He cometh to pardon, to save and restore. [Refrain] 4 Thy burden He carries, oh, dost thou not know ‘Tis Christ thy Redeemer Who loveth thee so? A stranger no longer, arise, let Him in, Acquaint thyself with Him and peace thou shalt win. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [A form at the threshold, a stranger behold]

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 2,317 hymnals First Line: Alas! and did my Saviour bleed Refrain First Line: Now I will glory in the cross Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed And did my Sov’reign die? Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I? Refrain: Now I will glory in the cross, For this I count the world but dross. There I with Christ was crucified; His death is mine; with Him I died; And while I live my song shall be, No longer I, but Christ in me. 2 Was it for crimes that I had done, He groan’d upon the tree? Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree! [Refrain] 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker died For man the creature's sin. [Refrain] 4 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I give myself away,— 'Tis all that I can do. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Alas! and did my Saviour bleed]

His pow’rful voice The graves shall instant rend, While saints their voices blend In notes of rapture, sweet and loud. 2 Come, mighty Shepherd of the sheep! Come in Thy beauty! come! To Thee convoke Thy waiting flock, All saints who wake or sleep Swift summon forth to keep Love’s glorious tryst beyond the tomb! 3 Death and the grave with Thee we’ll tread, In immortality! Caught up in air, in cloud ranks fair, Transfigured quick and dead Shall rise to Thee, their Head; Death swallowed up in victory! 4 Wake, bride of Christ, in ecstasy, Love’s glad triumphant chord! Soon, wondrous sight! all love and light, The Bridegroom, come for thee, Shall take thee, bright as He, To be forever with the Lord! Used With Tune: [Jesus, the Lord, will soon descend]
