In thy great name, O Lord, we come

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 145 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In thy great name, O Lord, we come, To worship at thy feet; O pour thy holy Spirit down On all that now shall meet. 2 We come to hear Jehovah speak, To hear the Saviour’s voice: Thy face and favour, Lord, we seek, Now make our hearts rejoice. 3 Teach us to pray, and praise, and hear, And understand thy word; To feel thy blissful presence near, And trust our living Lord. 4 Here let thy pow'r and grace be felt; Thy love and mercy known; Our icy hearts, dear Jesus, melt, And break this flinty stone. 5 Let sinners, Lord, thy goodness prove, And saints rejoice in thee; Let rebels be subdu'd by love, And to the Saviour flee. 6 This house with grace and glory fill, This congregation bless; Thy great salvation now reveal; Thy glorious righteousness.

Through Sorrow's Night And Danger's Path

Author: Henry K. White, 1785-1806 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 188 hymnals First Line: Through sorrow’s night and danger’s path Lyrics: 1 Through sorrow’s night and danger’s path, Amid the deepening gloom, We soldiers of an injured king Are marching to the tomb. 2 There, when the turmoil is no more, And all our powers decay, Our cold remains in solitude Shall sleep the years away. 3 Our labors done, securely laid In this our last retreat, Unheeded o’er our silent dust The storms of life shall beat. 4 Yet not thus lifeless, thus inane, The vital spark shall lie, For o’er life’s wreck that spark shall rise To seek its kindred sky. 5 These ashes too, this little dust, Our Father’s care shall keep, Till the last angel rise, and break The long and dreary sleep. 6 Then love’s soft dew o’er every eye Shall shed its mildest rays, And dust, long silent, loud will burst With shouts of endless praise.

Your hand in sight of all my foes, does still my table spread; my cup with Blessings overflows, your oil anoints my head. 3 Your sure provisions gracious God attend me all my days; oh, may your house be my abode, and all my work be praise.

Father of light, and life, and love

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: Father of light, and life, and love, Thyself to us reveal, As saints below and saints above Thy sacred presence feel. Not with the eye of mortal sense, By angels round the throne, Or happy souls departed hence, Art Thou in glory known. No sun by day, no moon by night, For this our spirits need, Who walk by faith, and not by sight, They feel Thee nigh indeed. Light in Thy light the blind may see, No more by sin estranged; Light in the Lord, so let us be, Into Thine image changed. Since Thou Thyself dost still display Unto the pure in heart; O make us, children of the day, To know Thee as Thou art. For Thou art light, and life, and love; And Thy redeem'd below May see Thee, as Thy saints above, And know Thee as they know Sacred Poems and Hymns

To us who’re now alive: Before in death the body faints Our rapture may arrive. 2 Those laid in dust shall wake and sing, Who now thro’ Jesus sleep; For God with Him will surely bring The saints for whom we weep. 3 And as Thy coming, Lord, draws nigh, Caught up in clouds we’ll sing, O grave, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting? 4 No whirlwind’s force a passage rends For one loved saint alone; The Lord Himself from Heav’n descends, And takes up all His own.
