See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: LH1941 #218 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Psalm 68:18 First Line: See, the Conqu'ror mounts in triumph Lyrics: 1 See, the Conqu'ror mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds, His chariot, To His heav'nly palace gate! Hark, the choirs of angel voices Joyful alleluias sing, And the portals high are lifted To receive their heav'nly King. 2 Who is this that comes in glory With the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies,-- He hath gained the victory. He who on the cross did suffer, He who from the grave arose, He hath vanquished sin and Satan; He by death hath spoiled His foes. 3 While He lifts Hs hands in blessing He is parted from His friends; While their eager eyes behold Him, He upon the clouds ascends. He who walked with God and pleased him, Preaching truth and doom to come, He, our Enoch, is translated To His everlasting home. 4 Now our heav'nly Aaron enters With His blood within the veil; Joshua now is come to Canaan, and the kings before Him quail. Now He plants the tribes of Israel In their promised resting-place, Now our great Elijah offers Double portion of His grace. 5 Thou hast raised our human nature On the clouds to God's right hand; There we sit in heavenly places, There with Thee in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne. Mighty Lord, in Thine ascension We by faith behold our own. 6 Glory be to God the Father; Glory be to God the Son, Dying, risen, ascending for us, Who the heavenly realm hath won; Glory to the Holy Spirit! To One God in Persons Three Glory both in earth and heaven, Glory, endless glory, be. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Ascension Languages: English Tune Title: REX GLORIAE

Hail to the Lord's Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: LH1941 #59 (1941) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord’s Anointed, Great David’s greater Son! Hail in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free, To take away transgression And rule in equity. 2 He comes with succor speedy To those who suffer wrong; To help the poor and needy And bid the weak be strong; To give them songs for sighing, Their darkness turn to light, Whose souls, condemned and dying, Were precious in His sight. 3 He shall come down like showers Upon the fruitful earth, And joy and hope, like flowers, Spring in His path to birth. Before Him, on the mountains, Shall peace, the herald, go, And righteousness, in fountains, From hill to valley flow. 4 Arabia’s desert ranger To Him shall bow the knee, The Ethiopian stranger His glory come to see; With off'rings of devotion Ships from the isles shall meet To pour the wealth of oceans in tribute at His feet. 5 Kings shall fall down before Him, And gold and incense bring; All nations shall adore Him, His praise all peoples sing; To Him shall prayer unceasing, And daily vows ascend, His kingdom still increasing, A kingdom without end. 6 O’er every foe victorious, He on His throne shall rest, From age to age more glorious, All blessing and all-blest. The tide of time shall never His covenant remove; His name shall stand forever-- That name to us is Love. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Advent Languages: English Tune Title: FREUT EUCH, IHR LIEBEN

Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LH1941 #511 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run, His kingdom stretch from shore to shore Till moons shall wax and wane no more. 2 For Him shall endless prayer be made, And endless praises crown His head; His name, like sweet perfume, shall rise With ev'ry morning sacrifice. 3 People and realms of ev'ry tongue Dwell on His love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on His name. 4 Blessings abound where'er He reigns; The pris'ner leaps, unloosed his chains, The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. 5 Where He displays His healing power, Death and the curse are known no more; In Him the tribes of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost. 6 Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud Amen. Amen. Topics: The Church Missions Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

Lyrics: 1 Why should cross and trial grieve me? Christ is near With His cheer; Never will He leave me. Who can rob me of the heaven That God's Son For my own To my faith hath given? 2 Though a heavy cross I'm bearing And my heart Feels the smart, Shall I be despairing? God, my Helper, who doth send it, Well doth know All my woe And how best to end it. 3 God oft gives me days of gladness; Shall I grieve If He give Seasons, too, of sadness? God is good and tempers ever All my ill, And He will Wholly leave me never. 4 Hopeful, cheerful, and undaunted Ev'rywhere They appear Who in Christ are planted. Death itself cannot appal them, They rejoice When the voice Of their Lord doth call them. 5 Death cannot destroy forever; From our fears, Cares, and tears It will us deliver. It will close life's mournful story, Make a way That we may Enter heavenly glory. 6 What is all this life possesses? But a hand Full of sand That the heart distresses. Noble gifts that pall me never Christ, our Lord, Will accord To His saints forever. 7 Lord, my Shepherd, take me to Thee. Thou art mine; I was Thine, Even e'er I knew Thee. I am Thine, for Thou hast bought me; Lost I stood, But Thy blood Free salvation brought me. 8 Thou art mine; I love and own Thee. Light of Joy, Ne'er shall I From my heart dethrone Thee. Savior, let me soon behold Thee Face to face - May Thy grace Evermore enfold me! Amen. Topics: Cross and Comfort Languages: English Tune Title: WARUM SOLLT' ICH MICH DENN GRÄMEN

Jesus, Thou Art Mine Forever

Author: Matthias Loy Hymnal: LH1941 #357 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Scripture: Psalm 73:24 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art mine forever, Dearer far than earth to me; Neither life nor death shall sever Those sweet ties which bind to Thee. 2 All were drear to me and lonely If Thy presence gladdened not; While I sing to Thee, Thee only, Mine’s an ever blissful lot. 3 Thou alone art all my Treasure, Who hast died that I may live; Thou conferrest noblest pleasure, Who dost all my sins forgive. 4 Brightest gems and fairest flowers Lose their beauty in Thy frown; Joy and peace, like balmy showers, In Thy smile come gently down. 5 Jesus, Thou art mine forever; Never suffer me to stray. Let me in my weakness never Cast my priceless pearl away. 6 Lamb of God, I do implore Thee, Guard, support me, lest I fall. Let me evermore adore Thee; Be my everlasting All. Amen.

Now Let Us Come Before Him

Author: James Kelly; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: LH1941 #122 (1941) Scripture: Psalm 81:1 Lyrics: 1 Now let us come before Him, With song and prayer adore Him, Who to our life hath given All needed strength from heaven. 2 The stream of years is flowing, And we are onward going, From old to new surviving And by His mercy thriving. 3 In woe we often languish And pass thro' times of anguish Of wars and trepidation Alarming ev'ry nation. 4 As mothers watch are keeping O’er children who are sleeping, Their fear and grief assuaging When angry storms are raging. 5 So God His own is shielding And help to them is yielding. When need and woe distress them, His loving arms caress them. 6 O Thou who dost not slumber, Remove what would encumber Our work, which prospers never Unless Thou bless it ever. 7 O God of mercy, hear us; Our Father, be Thou near us; Mid crosses and in sadness Be Thou our Fount of gladness. 8 To all who bow before Thee And for Thy grace implore Thee, Oh, grant Thy benediction And patience in affliction. 9 Be Thou a Helper speedy To all the poor and needy, To all forlorn a Father; Thine erring children gather. 10 Be with the sick and ailing, Their Comforter unfailing; Dispelling grief and sadness, Oh, give them joy and gladness! 11 Above all else, Lord, send us Thy Spirit to attend us, Within our hearts abiding, To heaven our footsteps guiding. 12 All this Thy hand bestoweth, Thou Life, whence our life floweth. To all Thy name confessing Grant, Lord, Thy New Year’s blessing! Amen. Topics: The Church Year New Year Languages: English Tune Title: NUN LASST UNS GOTT, DEM HERREN
