Saviour, when in dust, to Thee

Author: Robert Grant Appears in 444 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, when in dust, to Thee Low we bow th'adoring knee; When, repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our weeping eyes; Oh, by all Thy pains and woe, Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn litany. 2 By Thy birth and early years, By Thy human griefs and fears, By Thy fasting and distress In the lonely wilderness; By Thy victory in the hour Of the subtle tempter's power, Jesus, look with pitying eye Hear our solemn litany. 3 By thine hour of dark despair, By thine agony and prayer, By the purple robe of scorn, By Thy wounds, Thy crown of thorn; By Thy Cross, Thy pangs and cries; By Thy perfect sacrifice; Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn litany. 4 By Thy deep expiring groan, By the sealed sepulchral stone, By Thy triumph o'er the grave, By Thy power from death to save; Mighty God, ascended Lord, To Thy throne in heaven restored, Saviour, Prince, exalted high, Hear our solemn litany. Amen. Topics: Christ Passion of; Lent Used With Tune: LITANY

Great is the Lord our God

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 302 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Great is the Lord our God, And let His praise be great; He makes the Church His own abode, His most delightful seat, His most delightful seat. 2 In Zion God is known, A refuge in distress; How bright has His salvation shone Through all her palaces! Through all her palaces! 3 When kings against her joined, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind, They fled with hasty fear, They fled with hasty fear. 4 Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where His own sheep have been, Where His own sheep have been. 5 In every new distress We'll to His house repair; We'll call to mind His wondrous grace, And seek deliverance there, And seek deliverance there.

He hath bought us our pardon, We'll praise Him again when we pass over Jordan, We'll praise Him again when we pass over Jordan. 2 Ye souls that are wounded! oh, flee to the Saviour! He calls you in mercy--'tis infinite favor; Your sins are increasing--escape to the mountain-- His blood can remove them, it flows from the fountain, His blood can remove them, it flows from the fountain. [Chorus] 3 O Jesus! ride onward, triumphantly glorious, O'er sin, death, and hell, Thou art more than victorious; Thy name is the theme of the great congregation, While angels and saints raise the shout of salvation, While angels and saints raise the shout of salvation. [Chorus] 4 With joy shall we stand, when escaped to that shore; With harps in our hands, we'll praise Him the more; We'll range the sweet plains on the bank of the river, And sing of salvation for ever and ever, And sing of salvation for ever and ever.
