Jacob's Ladder
Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: If the Lord our leader be Lyrics: 1 If the Lord our leader be,
We may follow without fear;
East or west, by land or sea,
Home, with Him, is everywhere:
When from Esau Jacob fled,
Tho’ his pillow was a stone,
And the ground his humble bed,
Yet he was not left alone.
2 Kings are often waking kept,
Racked with cares on beds of state;
Never king like Jacob slept,
For he lay at Heaven’s gate:
Lo! he saw a ladder reared,
Reaching to the heav’nly throne;
At the top the Lord appeared,
Spoke and claimed him for His own.
3 Fear not, Jacob, thou art Mine,
And My presence with thee goes;
On thy heart My love shall shine,
And My arm subdue thy foes:
From My promise comfort take,
For My help in trouble call;
Never will I thee forsake,
’Till I have accomplished all.
4 Well does Jacob’s ladder suit
To the Gospel throne of grace;
We are at the ladder’s foot,
Every hour, in every place:
By assuming flesh and blood,
Jesus Heav’n and earth unites;
We by faith ascend to God,
God to dwell with us delights.
5 They who know the Savior’s name,
Are for all events prepared;
What can changes do to them,
Who have such a guide and guard?
Should they traverse earth around,
To the ladder still they come;
Every spot is holy ground,
God is there—and He’s their home, Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 1

Jacob's Star Is Ris'n At Last
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Jacob’s star is ris’n at last Lyrics: 1 Jacob’s star is ris’n at last,
Brighter than the brightest sun:
Darkness is for ever past,
And the joyful day begun.
2 Sing aloud, the cause is great;
Sing ye heav’ns, and sing thou earth:
Still the joyful theme repeat,
Joyful theme, Emanuel’s birth.
3 This is Jacob’s promised star,
Giving light to all around;
Shining clear and seen afar,
Seen to earth’s remotest bound.
4 Sing the Infant, virgin-born,
He a king, a king by birth;
Though the mark of human scorn;
Heir of all in Heav’n and earth.
5 Now ye saints, dry up your tears;
See, the day is come at last:
Jacob’s promised star appears,
Darkness is for ever past. Used With Tune: ALCESTER Text Sources: Hymns Not Before Published (Dublin: Thomas Johnston, 1815)
