How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #175 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
And drives away his fear.
2 It makes the wounded spirit whole,
And calms the troubled breast;
'Tis manna to the hungry soul,
And to the weary, rest.
3 By Him my prayers acceptance gain,
Although with sin defiled;
Satan accuses me in vain,
And I am own'd a child.
4 Weak is the effort of my heart,
And cold my warmest thought;
But when I see Thee as Thou art,
I'll praise Thee as I ought.
5 Till then I would Thy love proclaim,
With ev'ry fleeting breath;
And may the music of Thy name
Refresh my soul in death. Languages: English
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
O love divine, how sweet thou art!
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #178 (1870) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 O love divine, how sweet thou art!
When shall I find my willing heart
All taken up by thee?
I long and thirst, and faint ti prove
The greatness of redeeming love,
The love of Christ to me.
2 Stronger His love than death or hell;
Its riches are unsearchable;
The first-born sons of light
Desire, in vain, its depths to see;
They cannot reach the mystery,
The length, and breadth, and height.
3 Oh, that I could forever sit,
With Mary, at the Master’s feet!
Be this my happy choice;
My only care, delight, and bliss,
My joy, my heaven on earth be this,
To hear the Bridegroom’s voice.
4 Oh, that I could, with favor'd John,
Recline my weary head upon
The dear Redeemer's breast!
From care, and sin, and sorrow free,
Give me, O Lord, to find in Thee
My everlasting rest. Languages: English
O love divine, how sweet thou art!

Wisdom and riches and strength evermore
Give ye to Him who our battle hath won,
Whose are the Kingdom, the crown, and the throne.

Ringeth the earth with His glory and fame;
Ocean and mountain, stream, forest, and flower
Echo His praises and tell of His power.
3 Ever ascendeth the song and the joy;
Ever descendeth the love from on high;
Blessing and honor and glory and praise—
This is the theme of the hymns that we raise.
4 Give we the glory and praise to the Lamb;
Take we the robe and the harp and the palm;
Sing we the song of the Lamb that was slain,
Dying in weakness, but rising to reign.
Amen. Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA

Among the followers of the Lamb.

Songs of thankfulness and praise
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #149 (1899) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise,

Manifested by the star
To the sages from afar;
Branch of Royal David's stem
In Thy birth at Bethlehem:
Anthems be to Thee addrest,
God in Man made manifest.
2 Manifest at Jordan's stream,
Prophet, Priest, and King supreme;
And at Cana wedding-guest
In the Godhead manifest;
Manifest in power Divine,
Changing water into wine;
Anthems be to Thee addrest,
God in Man made manifest.
3 Manifest in making whole
Palsied limbs and fainting soul;
Manifest in valiant fight,
Quelling all the devil's might;
Manifest in gracious will,
Ever bringing good from ill;
Anthems be to Thee addrest,
God in Man made manifest.
4 Grant us grace to see Thee, Lord,
Present in Thy holy Word;
May we imitate Thee now,
And be pure, as pure art Thou;
That we like Thee may be,
At Thy great Epiphany;
And may praise Thee, ever blest,
God in Man made manifest.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HOLLINGSIDE
