While with ceaseless course the sun

Author: John Newton Appears in 591 hymnals Topics: Circumcision Lyrics: 1 While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted through the former year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here; Fixed in an eternal state, They have done with all below; We a little longer wait, But how little, none can know. 2 As the wingéd arrow flies Speedily, the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life's rapid stream: Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream. 3 Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us henceforth how to live With eternity in view. Bless Thy word to young and old, Fill us with a Saviour's love; And when life's short tale is told, May we dwell with Thee above. Used With Tune: ALLE MENSCHEN MÜSSEN STERBEN

Conquering kings their titles take

Author: John Chandler Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: Circumcision Lyrics: Conquering kings their titles take From the foes they captive make; Jesus, by a nobler deed, From the thousands he hath freed. Yes: none other Name is given Unto mortals under heaven, Which can make the dead arise, And exalt them to the skies. We would gladly for that Name Bear the cross, endure the shame; Joyfully for him to die Is not death, but victory. Jesus, who dost condescend To be called the sinner's Friend, Hear us, as to thee we pray, Glorying in thy Name today. Amen. Used With Tune: INNOCENTS Text Sources: Paris Breviary, 1736
