Have mercy, Savior of mankind, And hear us when we pray! 5 O Thou, who sitt'st at God's right hand, Upon the Father's throne, Have mercy on us, Thou, O Christ, Who art the Holy One! 6 Thou only, with the Holy Ghost, Whom earth and heav'n adore, In glory of the Father art Most high forevermore.

The King of heaven His table spreads

Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 233 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The King of heaven His table spreads, And dainties crown the board. Not all the boasted joys of earth Could such delight afford. 2 Pardon and peace to dying men, And endless life are given; And the rich Blood that Jesus shed To raise the soul to heaven. 3 Ye hungry poor, who long have strayed In sin’s dark mazes, come; Come from the hedges and highways, And Grace shall find you room. 4 Thousands of souls, in glory now, Were fed and feasted here; And thousands more, still on the way, Around the board appear. 5 Yet are His house and heart so large, That thousands more may come; Nor could the wide assembled world O’erfill the spacious room. 6 All things are ready: enter in, Nor weak excuses frame. Come, take your places at the feast, And bless the Founder’s Name.

Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 81 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And art Thou with us, gracious Lord, To dissipate our fear? Dost Thou proclaim Thyself our God, Our God for ever near? 2 Doth Thy right hand, which formed the earth, And bears up all the skies, Stretch from on high its friendly aid, When dangers round us rise? 3 And wilt Thou lead our weary souls To that delightful scene, Where rivers of salvation flow Through pastures ever green? 4 On thy support our souls shall lean, And banish every care; The gloomy vale of death shall smile, If God be with us there. 5 While we His precious succor prove, 'Midst all our various ways, The darkest shades through which we pass Shall echo with His praise.

Welcome, Thou Victor In The Strife

Author: Catherine Winkworth; B. Schmolck Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 63 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Welcome, Thou Victor in the strife, Now welcome from the cave! Today we triumph in Thy life, Around Thy empty grave. 2 The dwellings of the just resound With songs of victory; For in their midst, Lord, Thou art found And bringest peace with Thee. 3 Impart to us the spoils, we pray, Thou didst for us achieve; We meet within Thy house today Our portion to receive. 4 We die with Thee: O let us live Henceforth to Thee aright; The blessings Thou hast died to give Be daily in our sight. 5 Fearless we lay us in the tomb And sleep the night away, If Thou art there to break the gloom And call us back to day. 6 Death hurts us not; his power is gone, And pointless all his darts; Now hath God's favor on us shone, And joy fills all our hearts. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Easter Used With Tune: THANKSGIVING
