'Tis My Happiness Below

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11913 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: ’Tis my happiness below Lyrics: 1 ’Tis my happiness below Not to live without the cross, But the Savior’s power to know, Sanctifying every loss; Trials must and will befall, But with humble faith to see Love inscribed upon them all, This is happiness to me. 2 God, in Israel, sows the seeds, Of affliction, pain and toil; These spring up, and choke the weeds Which would else o’erspread the soil; Trials make the promise sweet, Trials give new life to prayer; Trials bring me to His feet, Lay me low, and keep me there. 3 Did I meet no trials here, No chastisement by the way, Might I not, with reason, fear I should prove a castaway? Bastards may escape the rod, Sunk in earthly, vain delight; But the true born child of God, Must not, would not, if he might. Languages: English Tune Title: MADRID

At Thy Cross

Though my sins are crimson red, Thou for me Thy blood hast shed; Trembling at Thy cross I bow, Jesus, Master, cleanse me now. 2 Jesus, Master, hear my cry, Pass me not unheeded by; On these sightless eyes of mine, Let Thy beams of mercy shine. Lord I know Thou canst forgive, Bid, O bid me look and live; Trusting, at Thy cross I bow, Jesus, Master, heal me now. 3 Jesus, Master, praise to Thee, For Thy wondrous love to me; From the mountain wild and steep Thou hast brought Thy wandering sheep. Thou hast washed my sins away, Turned my darkness into day; Joyful at Thy cross I bow, Thou dost save and save me now. Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYN

Lord, Have Mercy When We Pray

Author: Henry H. Milman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12070 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, have mercy when we pray, Strength to seek a better way; When our wakening thoughts begin First to loathe their cherished sin; When the earliest gleam is giv’n, Of the bright but distant Heav’n, Then Thy fostering grace afford, Then, oh, then! Have mercy, Lord. 2 Lord, have mercy when we know First how vain this world below; When its darker thoughts oppress, Doubts perplex, and fears distress; Sigh for death, yet fear it still, From the dread of future ill; When the dim, advancing gloom Tells us that our hour is come. 3 Lord, have mercy when we lie On the restless bed, and sigh— When our weary spirits fail, And our aching brows are pale; When all other hope is gone, When our course is almost done, When is loosed the silver cord— Then, oh, then! have mercy, Lord.

Jacob's Ladder

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12089 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D 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, Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR

Brethren, While We Sojourn Here

Author: Joseph Swain Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12093 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Brethren, while we sojourn here, Fight we must, but should not fear; Foes we have, but we’ve a friend, One that loves us to the end. Forward then with courage go, Long we shall not dwell below; Soon the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls—Come home!" 2 In the way a thousand snares Lie, to take us unawares; Satan, with malicious art, Watches each unguarded part: But, from Satan’s malice free, Saints shall soon victorious be; Soon the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls—Come home!" 3 But, of all the foes we meet, None so oft mislead our feet, None betray us into sin, Like the foes that dwell within. Yet let nothing spoil your peace, Christ will also conquer these; Then the joyful news will come, "Child, your Father calls—Come home!" Languages: English Tune Title: MESSIAH

Softly Upon Bethlehem's Plains

Author: Benjamin Gough Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12381 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Softly upon Bethlehem’s plains Lyrics: 1 Softly upon Bethlehem’s plains Falls the gentle dew of night; Sweetly solemn silence reigns— Earth how calm, and Heav’n how bright! Every star shines out alone, Looking down from Heav’n to earth; Beautiful as first they shone Radiant at Creation’s birth. 2 O’er the sloping mountain’s side, Clustering flocks of sheep repose; Watchful shepherds there abide, Feed and guard them from their foes: There they watch from evening’s ray, Sleepless until midnight’s hush; There in thoughtful musings stay, Till the tears of twilight gush. 3 Happy shepherds! lift your eyes; Eastward cast your glance afar; See! what luster gilds the skies, Lit by yonder signal star! Slow descending from above, See! an angel form appears! God’s own messenger of love Brings glad tidings to your ears. 4 See! he folds his snowy wings; Heav’n in mercy stoops to earth; Listen to the news he brings, Tidings of Messiah’s birth! Shout in triumph, earth and Heav’n, Swell the song of sweet accord; Jesus lives, "the Son is giv’n," Bow, and worship "Christ the Lord." 5 Multitudes of angels sing Strains celestial, songs divine; Glory to the newborn King! Men may now with angels join; Hallelujahs loud and long Swell upon the shepherds’ ears, Richer far than mortal song, Or the music of the spheres. 6 Happy shepherds! let us go Unto Bethlehem and see God made manifest below, Smiling on His mother’s knee. Babe almighty! earth’s desire! Heav’n’s anointed One art Thou; Men and angels, son and sire, Place the crown upon His brow. Languages: English Tune Title: BETHLEHEM-JUDAH

Gentle Star Of Bethlehem

Author: Benjamin Gough Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12405 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Gentle star of Bethlehem! Lyrics: 1 Gentle star of Bethlehem! Guided by thy light I go; Lead me by thy lambent flame: Show the infant Jesus, show! Star! above all other stars outvying, Shine upon His place of rest, Humbly in a manger lying, On His virgin mother’s breast. 2 There He sleeps, the great, the lowly, Heav’n’s incarnate, earth’s desire; Gather round Him, angels holy, Bow before Him, son and sire. Eastern sages come and meet; Bend in awe which dares not stir; Pour your offerings at His feet, Gold and frankincense and myrrh! 3 Shepherds, keeping watch by night, Still "abiding in the field," See! an angel clothed in light, All in majesty revealed. Hark! the heavenly message sounding, Joyful tidings every word; Go! with hearts in gladness bounding, Go and worship Christ the Lord! 4 Earth! earth! earth! with Heaven uniting, Shout the triumphs of the day! Men with angels, join inviting Love’s own hallelujah’s lay! Angels fill the upper sky, Mortals swell the glowing strain— "Glory be to God on high Peace on earth, good will to men!" 5 Holy Jesus, in Thy meekness, Stooping from Thy throne divine, Power brought down to human weakness; Might and majesty are Thine! Babe of Bethl’em, we adore Thee! All mankind in Thee shall trust, All earth’s millions bow before Thee, And Thy foes shall lick the dust! 6 Hail! incarnate Savior, hail! God and man—the living Word; By Thy might Thou shalt prevail, Bethle’m’s babe is David’s Lord. Gird Thy sword upon Thy thigh, Ride in glory and renown. Conquering Jesus! God most high! Wear the universal crown! Languages: English Tune Title: FAVERSHAM
