Jesus, Come! for We Invite You

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, come! for we invite you, guest and master, friend and Lord; now, as once at Cana's wedding, speak, and let us hear your word: lead us through our need or doubting, hope be born and joy restored. 2 Jesus, come! transform our pleasures, guide us into paths unknown; bring your gifts, command your servants, let us trust in you alone: though your hand may work in secret, all shall see what you have done. 3 Jesus, come in new creation, heaven brought near in power divine; give your unexpected glory, changing water into wine: rouse the faith of your disciples-- come, our first and greatest Sign! 4 Jesus, come! surprise our dullness, make us willing to receive more than we can yet imagine, all the best you have to give: let us find your hidden riches, taste your love, believe and live!

If So Poor A Worm As I

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 133 hymnals First Line: Father, Son and Holy Ghost Lyrics: 1 Father, Son and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host Let Thy will on earth be done; Praise by all to Thee be given, Glorious Lord of earth and Heaven! 2 Vilest of the fallen race, Lo! I answer to Thy call, Meanest vessel of Thy grace, (Grace divinely free for all) Lo, I come to do Thy will, All Thy counsel to fulfill. 3 If so poor a worm as I May to Thy great glory live, All my actions sanctify, All my words and thoughts receive; Claim me for Thy service, claim All I have, and all I am. 4 Take my soul and body’s powers, Take my memory, mind, and will, All my goods, and all my hours, All I know, and all I feel, All I think, and speak, and do; Take my heart—but make it new. 5 Now, O God, Thine own I am, Now I give Thee back Thine own; Freedom, friends, and health, and fame Consecrate to Thee alone; Thine I live, thrice happy I, Happier still, for Thine I die. 6 Father, Son and Holy Ghost, One in Three, and Three in One, As by the celestial host Let Thy will on earth be done; Praise by all to Thee be given Glorious Lord of earth and Heaven.

Oh, love how deep, to bleed and weep For Thine own persecutors! 2 Thy cross, Redeemer, Thou didst bear, Our sins away Thou’st taken; Thine own Thou wilt us still declare, Though we have Thee forsaken, And gone astray, yea, day by day, Thy love is present with us. 3 Thy cross, O Savior, Thou didst bear, Thy boundless might and glory, Forever praised by angels fair, And told in sacred story, Thou laidst aside; naught shall abide, Save by the love that bleedeth. 4 Thy cross to victory Thou didst bear. Oh, grant that I, dear Savior, May glory in the cross and share Thy heavenly joy and favor ! Then shall my soul have reached its goal Safe in Thy loving bosom.

Rise, O Lord! In All Thy Glory

Author: Matthew Bridges Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Rise, O Lord! in all Thy glory On the last and dreadful day; Lo! the lofty hills are hoary, Trembling ere they melt away! Come to judgment! Come to judgment, Let Thy wheels no longer stay. 2 Crash on crash of distant thunder Peals aloud from pole to pole; As in wrath they burst asunder, And the skies together roll! Clothed in sackcloth! Clothed in sackcloth! Withering like a parchment scroll! 3 Now the universe in motion Sinks upon her funeral pyre, Earth dissolving, and the ocean Vanishing in final fire: Hark, the trumpet! Hark, the trumpet Loud proclaims the hour of ire! 4 Graves have yawned in countless numbers, From the dust the dead arise— Legions, out of silent slumbers Wake in overwhelmed surprise— Where all nature! Where all nature Wrecked and torn in ruin lies! 5 Lo! that last long separation As the cleaving crowds divide— And one dread adjudication Sends each soul to either side: Lord of mercy! Lord of mercy! How shall I that day abide? 6 Sign of safety! see it lightening, Once the cross of crimson shame! And with heavn’ly luster brightening Those who suffered in its name! Mighty millions! Mighty millions! Radiant with their wings of flame! 7 Rise, O Lord! in all Thy glory On Thine amaranthine throne! Thousand thousand worlds adore Thee, Bow their knee to Thee alone. Hail, Emmanuel! Hail, Emmanuel! Let our hearts be all Thine own! Text Sources: The Passion of Jesus (London: Richardson & Son, 1852)
