I was a wandering sheep

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #128 (1899) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold, I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controlled: I was a wayward child, I did not love my home, I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; He followed me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild: He found me nigh to death, Famished, and faint, and lone; He bound me with the bands of love, He saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is, 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that washed me in His blood, 'Twas He that made me whole; 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep, 'Twas He that brought me to the fold, 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 No more a wandering sheep, I love to be controlled, I love my tender Shepherd's voice, I love, I love the fold: No more a wayward child, I seek no more to roam, I love my Heavenly Father's voice-- I love, I love His home. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LEBANON

Father, how wide thy glory shines!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #130 (1899) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide Thy glory shines! How high Thy wonders rise! Known through the earth by thousand signs, By thousands through the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim Thy power, Their motions speak Thy skill, And on the wings of every hour We read Thy patience still. 3 When sinners break the Father's low, The dying Son atones; Oh! the dear mysteries of His cross! The triumph of His groans! 4 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heavenly plains; Sweet cherubs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 5 Oh, may I bear some humble part In that immortal song! Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ABRIDGE

How condescending and how kind

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #138 (1899) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 How condescending and how kind Was God's eternal son! Our misery reached His heavenly mind, And pity brought Him down. 2 This was compassion like a God, That when the Saviour knew The price of pardon was His blood, His pity ne'er withdrew. 3 Now, though He reigns exalted high, His love is still as great: Well He remembers Calvary, Nor should His saints forget. 4 Here we receive repeated seals Of Jesus' dying love: Hard is the heart that never feels One soft affection move. 5 Here let our hearts begin to melt, While we His death record, And with our joy for pardoned guilt, Mourn that we pierced the Lord. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH
