O Perfect Life of Love

Author: Henry Williams Baker Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 87 hymnals Topics: Suffering of Christ; Suffering of Christ Lyrics: 1 O perfect life of love! All, all is finished now all that he left his throne above to do for us below. 2 No work is left undone of all the Father willed; his toils, his sorrows, one by one, are prophecies fulfilled. 3 No pain that we can share but he has felt its smart. All forms of human grief and care have pierced that tender heart. 4 And on his thorn-crowned head and on his sinless soul our sins in all their guilt were laid, that he might make us whole. 5 In perfect love he dies; for me, his awful death! O all-atoning Sacrifice, I cling to you in faith. 6 In every time of need, before your judgment throne your work, O Lamb of God, I'll plead your merit, not my own. 7 Yet work your way in me, my self-will, Lord, remove; then shall my love and service be my answer to your love.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Appears in 417 hymnals Topics: Suffering of Christ; Suffering of Christ Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all; and his shelter was a stable and his cradle was a stall: with the poor and meek and lowly lived on earth our Savior holy. 3 For he is our childhood's pattern; day by day like us he grew; he was little, weak, and helpless; tears and smiles like us he knew: and he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 4 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love, for that child, so dear and gentle, is our Lord in heaven above: and he leads his children on to the place where he has gone. 5 Not in that poor lowly stable with the oxen standing by we shall see him, but in heaven, set at God's right hand on high: there his children gather round bright like stars, with glory crowned.

To Jesus, who had blessed them, close folded to his breast, the children sang their praises, the simplest and the best. 2 From Olivet they followed mid an exultant crowd, the victory palm branch waving, and chanting clear and loud. The Lord of earth and heaven rode on in lowly state, nor scorned that little children should on his bidding wait. 3 "Hosanna in the highest!" That ancient song we sing, for Christ is our Redeemer, the Lord of heaven, our King. O may we ever praise him with heart and life and voice, and in his blissful presence eternally rejoice.

Look to him, your Savior, in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 6 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, o'er the earth to reign; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.
