As with gladness men of old

Author: W. C. Dix, 1837- Hymnal: MHTB1917 #103 (1917) Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold; As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright; So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee. 2 As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger-bed, There to bend the knee before Him whom heaven and earth adore; So may we, with willing feet, Ever seek Thy mercy-seat. 3 As they offered gifts most rare, At that cradle rude and bare; So may we with holy joy, Pure and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to Thee our heavenly King. 4 Holy Jesus! every day Keep us in the narrow way; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide.

Jesus, Lover of my soul

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #104a (1917) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high: Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life be past; Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none, Hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah! leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me: All my trust on Thee is stayed; All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenceless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want, More than all in Thee I find; Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let the healing streams abound, Make and keep me pure within: Thou of life the fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity.

Jesus with joy we witness Almighty to deliver; Our seals set to, that God is true, And reigns a King for ever. 2 Omnipotent Redeemer, Our ransomed souls adore Thee; Our Saviour Thou, we find it now, And give Thee all the glory. We sing Thine arm unshortened, Brought through our sore temptation; With heart and voice in Thee rejoice, The God of our salvation. 3 Thine arm hath safely brought us A way no more expected, Than when Thy sheep passed through the deep, By crystal walls protected. Thy glory was our rear-ward, Thy hand our lives did cover, And we, even we, have passed the sea, And marched triumphant over. 4 The world's and Satan's malice Thou, Jesus, hast confounded; And, by Thy grace, with songs of praise Our happy souls resounded. Accepting our deliverance, We triumph in Thy favour, And for the love which now we prove, Shall praise Thy name for ever.

Lo! He comes with clouds descending

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #109 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Lo! He comes with clouds descending, Once for favoured sinners slain; Thousand thousand saints attending Swell the triumph of His train: Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen. 2 Every eye shall now behold Him, Robed in dreadful majesty; Those who set at nought and sold Him, Pierced, and nailed Him to the tree, Deeply wailing, Shall the true Messiah see. 3 Now redemption, long expected, See in solemn pomp appear; All His saints, by man rejected, Now shall meet Him in the air: Hallelujah! See the day of God appear! 4 Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee, High on Thine eternal throne; Saviour, take the power and glory, Claim the kingdom for Thine own: O come quickly; Hallelujah! come, Lord, come!
