What Shall I Do, My God To Love?
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 60 hymnals First Line: What shall I do my God to love Lyrics: 1 What shall I do my God to love,
My Savior, and the world’s to praise?
Whose bowels of compassion move
To me, and all the fallen race;
Whose mercy is divinely free
For all the fallen race, and me.
2 I long to know, and to make known
The height and depth of love divine,
The kindness Thou to me hast shown,
Whose every sin was counted Thine:
My God for me resigned His breath,
He died, to save my soul from death.
3 All souls are Thine: and Thou for all
The ransom of Thy life hast given,
To raise the sinner from His fall,
And bring him back to God and Heaven;
Thou all the world hast died to save,
And all may Thy salvation have.
4 How shall I thank Thee for the grace,
On me, and all mankind bestowed!
O that my every breath were praise,
O that my heart were filled with God!
My heart would then with love o’erflow,
And all my life Thy glory show.
5 See me, O Lord, athirst and faint,
Me weary of forbearing see,
And let me feel Thy love’s constraint,
And freely give up all for Thee.
True in the fiery trial prove,
And pay Thee back Thy dying love. Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems (Bristol, England: Felix Farley, printer, 1742)

A Band Of Herdsmen Tarried Late
Author: John Brownlie Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A band of herdsmen tarried late,
Through hours of night disconsolate;
Around, the snow lay glistening white,
And stars o’erhead were shining bright;
O favored shepherds, there shall rise
A brighter star in yonder skies.
2 Whence comes this glory, brighter far
Than light that shines from midnight star?
An angel from the Lord appears,
And lo! their minds are filled with fears;
O favored shepherds, wherefore fear?
The messenger of God is here.
3 O band of herdsmen, list! I bring
Glad tidings of a promised king;
Go, in a manger ye shall find
The new-born Savior of mankind;
O favored shepherds, such surprise!
To see the Christ in mean disguise.
4 Then stood the herdsmen all amaze,
For heaven with glory was ablaze;
And choirs of angels, clad in white,
Awoke with song the silent night;
O favored shepherds, ye were blest,
To hear that heavenly song expressed.
5 To God be glory, thus they sang,
While earth and Heaven with music rang;
And peace abounding henceforth dwell
With those on earth who please Me well;
O favored shepherds, night is past,
And morn, bright morn, is come at last.
6 O band of herdsmen, long ago,
That song was sung on earth below,
Now myriad hosts uplift the strains
That first awoke on Bethlehem’s plains;
O favored shepherds, round the throne,
The angel’s song is now your own. Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Hymns of the Apostolic Church (Paisley: Alexander Gardner, 1909)

Jesus, Thou Art That Morning Star!
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1 hymnal Refrain First Line: 88.88.88 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art that morning star!
Thy brightness in my heart declare;
To me Thine only glory show,
Thine only self on me bestow;
I want no other light to see,
No other stars or sun but Thee.
2 Who walk enlightened by Thy light
Their morn hath no succeeding night;
They by reflected luster shine,
And bright in majesty divine,
Admire with all those stars above,
The Light of life, the God of love. Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Short Hymns on Select Passages of Holy Scripture (Bristol, England: E. Farley, 1762)

The Seasons Change
Eye Hath Not Seen, Ear Hath Not Heard
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard
What Christ hath for His saints prepared,
Who conquer thro’ their Savior’s might,
Who sink into perfection’s height,
And trample death beneath their feet,
And gladly die their Lord to meet.
2 They on the hidden manna feed
The heavenly, true, angelic Bread,
Who gained on earth a partial taste
Of bliss too exquisite to last,
Obtain His fullest joy above,
And all the sweetness of His love.
3 Christ shall on them a name bestow,
Which no embodied saint can know,
A new inexplicable name
With God essentially the same!
And what it is they they conceive,
When Christ doth all His fullness give.
4 Dost thou desire to know and see
What thy mysterious name shall be?
Contending for thy heavenly home,
Thy latest foe, in death o’ercome;
’Till then thou searchest out in vain
What only conquest can explain.
5 But when the Lord hath closed thine eyes,
And opened them in paradise,
Receiving thy new name unknown,
Thou read’st it wrote on the white stone,
Wrote on thy pure humanity
GOD THREE IN ONE AND ONE IN THREE! Used With Tune: BROWNWELL Text Sources: Short Hymns, 1762
