Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,864 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heaven to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.
2 Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit
into every troubled breast;
let us all in thee inherit,
let us find the promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning,
Alpha and Omega be;
end of faith, as its beginning,
set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, almighty to deliver,
let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray and praise thee without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.
4 Finish then thy new creation,
pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee:
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love, and praise. Topics: Adoration Scripture: Revelation 21:6 Used With Tune: BEECHER

All People That on Earth Do Dwell
Author: William Kethe, ca. 1530-1594 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 723 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All people that on earth do dwell,
sing to the Lord with cheerful voice;
him serve with joy, his praise forth tell,
come ye before him and rejoice.
2 Know that the Lord is God indeed;
without our aid he did us make;
we are his folk, he doth us feed,
and for his sheep he doth us take.
3 O enter then his gates with praise,
approach with joy his courts unto;
praise, laud and bless his name always,
for it is seemly so to do.
4 For why? The Lord our God is good,
his mercy is forever sure;
his truth at all times firmly stood,
and shall from age to age endure.

O Word of God Incarnate
Author: William W. How, 1823-1897 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 485 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Word of God incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky:
we praise you for the radiance
that from the hallowed page,
a lantern to our footsteps,
shines on from age to age.
2 The Church, from her dear Master,
received the gift divine,
and still that light is lifted
on all the earth to shine.
It is the chart and compass
that, all life's voyage through,
'mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
still guides, O Christ, to you.
3 O make your Church, dear Savior,
a lamp of burnished gold,
to bear before the nations
your true light as of old;
teach us, your wandering pilgrims,
by this our path to trace,
till, clouds and darkness ended,
we see you face to face!

let the earth hear his voice!

the vilest offender who truly believes,
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives. [Refrain]

and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;

our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see. [Refrain] Scripture: Colossians 1:14 Used With Tune: TO GOD BE THE GLORY

teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.

in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong;
4 In hope that sends a shining ray
far down the future’s broadening way,
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live.

the stumbling and the straying feet;
and feed me, Lord, that I may feed
your hungry ones with manna sweet.

the precious things which you impart;
and wing my words, that they may reach
the hidden depths of many a heart.

until my heart shall overflow
in kindling thought and glowing word,
your love to tell, your praise to show.

and help us to accept with joy
the challenge of tomorrow's day.

God Moves in a Mysterious Way
Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,131 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform;
he plants his footsteps in the sea,
and rides upon the storm.
2 You fearful saints, fresh courage take;
the clouds you so much dread
are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
3 His purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding every hour;
the bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flower.
4 Blind unbelief is sure to err
and scan his work in vain:
God is his own interpreter,
and he will make it plain. Scripture: Jeremiah 32:19 Used With Tune: DUNDEE
