Beneath The Shadow Of The Cross

Author: Samuel Longfellow Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 80 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Beneath the shadow of the cross As earthly hopes remove, His new commandment Jesus gives, His blessèd word of love. 2 O bond of union, strong and deep! O bond of perfect peace! Not even the lifted cross can harm, If we but hold to this. 3 Then, Jesus, be Thy Spirit ours! And swift our feet shall move To deeds of pure self-sacrifice, "And the sweet tasks of love."

Dearest of All the Names Above

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 163 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Dearest of all the names above, My Jesus, and my God, Who can resist Thy heav’nly love, Or trifle with Thy blood? 2. ’Tis by the merits of Thy death The Father smiles again; ’Tis by Thine interceding breath The Spirit dwells with men. 3. Till God in human flesh I see, My thoughts no comfort find; The holy, just, and sacred Three Are terrors to my mind. 4. But if Immanuel’s face appear, My hope, my joy begins; His name forbids my slavish fear, His grace removes my sins. 5. While Jews on their own law rely, And Greeks of wisdom boast, I love th’incarnate mystery And there I fix my trust.
