Holy Spirit, Lord of love

Author: William Dalrymple Maclagen, 1826-1910 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, Lord of love, who descended from above, gifts of blessing to bestow on your waiting Church below, once again in love draw near to your servants gathered here; from their bright baptismal day you have led them on their way. 2 When the sacred vow is made, when the hands are on them laid, come in this most solemn hour with your strengthening gift of power. Give them light, your truth to see: give them life, your own to be; daily power to conquer sin; patient faith, the crown to win. Topics: Confirmation Used With Tune: ABERYSTWYTH

Wherefore Do the Nations Rage?

Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Wherefore do the nations rage Lyrics: 1 Wherefore do the nations rage and the people vainly dream that in triumph they can wage war against the King supreme? Christ His Son a scoff they make, and the rulers plotting, say: "Their dominion let us break, let us cast their yoke away." 2 But the Lord will scorn them all, calm He sits enthroned on high; soon His wrath will on them fall, sore displeased He will reply: "Yet according to My will I have set My King to reign, and on Zion's holy hill My Anointed I maintain." 3 This His word shall be made known, This Jehovah's firm decree: Thou art My beloved Son, yea I have begotten Thee. All the earth at Thy request I will give Thee for Thy own; then Thy might shall be confessed and Thy foes be overthrown." 4 Therefore, kings, be wise, give ear; hearken, judges of the earth; learn to serve the Lord with fear, mingle trembling with your mirth. Kiss the Son, lest o'er your way His consuming wrath should break; but supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take.

Him On Yonder Cross I Love

Author: Johann C. Rube; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Him on yonder cross I love, Naught beside on earth count dear! May He mine for ever prove, Who is now so inly near! Here I stand: whate’er may come, Days of sunshine or of gloom, From this word I will not move; Him upon the cross I love! 2 ’Tis not hidden from my heart, What true love must often bring; Want and grief have sorest smart, Care and scorn can sharply sting; Nay, but if Thy will were such, Bitterest death were not too much! Dark though here my course may prove: Him upon the cross I love! 3 Rather sorrows such as these, Rather love’s acutest pain, Than without Him days of ease, Riches false and honors vain. Count me strange, when I am true, What He hates I will not do; Sneers no more my heart can move; Him upon the cross I love! 4 Know ye whence my strength is drawn, Fearless thus the fight to wage? Why my heart can laugh to scorn Fleshly weakness, Satan’s rage? ’Tis, I know the love of Christ, Mighty is that love unpriced! What can grieve me, what can move? Him upon the cross I love! 5 Once the eyes that now are dim, Shall discern the changeless love That hath led us home to Him, That hath crowned us far above: Would to God that all below What that love is now might know, And their hearts this word approve: Him upon the cross I love!

When From Scattered Lands Afar

Author: Charlotte E. Tonna Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: When from scat­tered lands afar Lyrics: 1 When from scat­tered lands afar Spreads the voice of ru­mored war, Nations in tu­mul­tu­ous pride Heave like ocean’s roari­ng tide; When the so­lar splen­dors fail, When the cres­cent wax­eth pale; World! do thou the sig­nal dread, We ex­alt the droop­ing head. 2 When the pow­ers that star-like reign Sink dis­hon­ored to the plain, We up­lift the ex­pect­ant eye— Our red­emp­tion draw­eth nigh, When the fig tree shoots ap­pear, Men be­hold their sum­mer near; When the hearts of re­bels fail, We the com­ing Con­quer­or hail. 3 Bridegroom of Thy weep­ing spouse, Listen to her long­ing vows, Listen to her wi­dowed moan, Listen to cre­a­tion’s groan; Bid, O bid Thy trum­pet sound, Gather Thine elect around: Call them from the cheer­less gloom, Call them from the mar­ble tomb. 4 From the grass-grown vil­lage grave, From the deep dis­solv­ing wave, From the whirl­wind and the flame, Mighty Head, Thy mem­bers claim. Where Thy cross in ang­uish stood, Where Thy life dis­tilled in blood, Where they mocked Thy dy­ing groan, King of na­tions, claim Thy throne.

God, How Can We Comprehend?

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: God, how can we comprehend-- Lyrics: God, how can we comprehend— Though we've seen them times before— Lines of people without end Fleeing danger, want, and war? They seek safety anywhere, Hoping for a welcome hand! Can we know the pain they bear? Help us, Lord, to understand! You put music in their souls; Now they struggle to survive. You gave each one gifts and goals; Now they flee to stay alive. God of outcasts, may we see How you value everyone, For each homeless refugee Is your daughter or your son. Lord, your loving knows no bounds; You have conquered death for all. May we hear beyond our towns To our distant neighbors' call. Spirit, may our love increase; May we reach to all your earth, Till your whole world lives in peace; Till we see each person's worth.
