On thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.
2 O happy bond, that seals my vows
To him who merits all my love!
Let cheerful anthems fill his house,
While to that sacred shrine I move.
3 'Tis done! The great transaction's done!
I am my Lord's, and he is mine;
He drew me, and I followed on,
Charmed to confess the voice Divine.
4 Now rest, my long-divided heart;
Fixed on this blissful centre, rest;
With ashes who would grudge to part,
When called on angels' bread to feast?
5 High heav'n, that heard the solemn vow,
That vow renewed shall daily hear,
Till in life's latest hour I bow,
And bless in death a bond so dear.

The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own!
Awake my soul, and sing
Of him who died for you,
And hail Him as your matchless King
With worship as his due.
2 Crown him the Lord of peace;
Whose power a scepter sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise.
His reign shall know no end;
And round His pierced feet
Fair flowers of paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
3 Crown him the Lord of life,
Who triumphed o’er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife
For those he came to save.
His glories now we sing
Who died and rose on high,
Who died, eternal life to bring,
And lives that death may die.
4 Crown him the Lord of years,
The Potentate of time,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime.
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For you have died for me
Your praise shall never, never fail
Throughout eternity.

O Savior, who our peace restored,
And who lost sheep did gather,
O Lamb of God, enthroned on high,
Behold our need and hear our cry;
Have mercy on us, Jesus!
4 O Holy Spirit, precious gift,
O Comforter unfailing,
Do you our troubled souls uplift,
Against the foe prevailing,
Avert our woes and calm our dread;
For us the Savior's blood was shed;
Do you in faith sustain us!

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;

With its human light,
Through all ranks of creatures,
To the central height,
To the throne of Godhead,
To the Father's breast;
Filled it with the glory
Of that perfect rest.
4 Brothers, this Lord Jesus
Shall return again,
With His Father's glory
O'er the earth to reign;
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon his brow,
And our hearts confess him
King of glory now.

When all thy statutes I obey,
And honor all thy Name.

Lo, what a pleasing sight
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 45 hymnals Topics: Christians their life and experience; Communion Of Saints; Christian Friendship; Love to Christian brethren; Peace Among Brethren; Sympathy Of Christians; Union with each other Lyrics: 1 Lo, what a pleasing sight
Are brethren that agree!
How blest are all whose hearts unite
In bonds of piety.
2 From those celestial springs,
Such streams of comfort flow,
As no increase of riches brings,
Nor honors can bestow.
3 All in their stations move,
And each performs his part,
In all the cares of life and love,
With sympathizing heart.
4 Form'd for the purest joys,
By one desire possest,
One aim the zeal of all employs,
To make each other blest.
5 No bliss can equal theirs,
Where such affections meet;
While praise devout, and mingled prayers
Make their communion sweet.
6 'Tis the same pleasure fills
The breast in worlds above,
Where joy, like morning-dew, distils,
And all the air is love.
Lo, what a pleasing sight
Come, You People, Rise and Sing
