Happy the souls to Jesus join'd
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 130 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 Happy the souls to Jesus join'd,
And saved by grace alone;
Walking in all His ways, they find
Their heaven on earth begun.
2 The Church triumphant in Thy love,
Their mighty joys we know;
They sing the Lamb in hymns above,
And we in hymns below.
3 Thee in Thy glorious realm they praise,
And bow before Thy throne;
We in the kingdom of Thy grace:
The kingdoms are but one.
4 The holy to the holiest leads;
From thence our spirits rise;
And he that in Thy statutes treads
Shall meet Thee in the skies.
Happy the souls to Jesus join'd
Happy the meek whose gentle breast
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 Happy the meek whose gentle breast,
Clear as the summer's evening ray,
Calm as the regions of the blest,
Enjoys on earth celestial day.
2 His heart no broken friendships sting,
No storms his peaceful tent invade;
He rest beneath th'almighty's wing,
Hostile to none, of none afraid.
3 Spirit of grace, all meek and mild!
Inspire our breasts, our souls possess;
Repel each passion rude and wild,
And bless us as we aim to bless.
Happy the meek whose gentle breast
Always with us, always with us
Appears in 150 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 Always with us, always with us--
Words of cheer and words of love;
Thus the risen Saviour whispers,
From His dwelling-place above.
2 With us when we toil in sadness,
Sowing much and reaping none;
Telling us that in the future
Golden harvests shall be won.
3 With us when the storm is sweeping
O’er our pathway dark and drear;
Waking hope within our bosoms,
Stilling every anxious fear.
4 With us in the lonely valley,
When we cross the chilling stream;
Lighting up the steps to glory
With salvation’s radiant beam.
Always with us, always with us
Thou Shepherd of Israel divine
Appears in 178 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 Thou Shepherd of Israel divine,
The joy and desire of my heart,
For closer communion I pine,
I long to reside where Thou art:
The pasture I languish to find
Where all, who their Shepherd obey,
Are fed, on Thy boson reclined,
And screen'd from the heat of the day.
2 Ah! show me that happiest place,
That place of Thy people's abode,
Where saints in an ecstasy gaze,
And hang on a crucified God!
Thy love for a sinner declare,
Thy passion and death on the tree;
My spirit to Calvary bear,
To suffer and triumph with Thee.
3 'Tis there with the lambs of Thy flock,
There only I covet to rest,
To lie at the foot of the Rock,
Or rise to be hid in Thy breast;
'Tis there I would always abide,
And never a moment depart;
Conceal'd in the cleft of Thy side,
Eternally held in Thy heart.
Thou Shepherd of Israel divine
Oh, that I could forever dwell
Appears in 101 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 Oh, that I could forever dwell,
Delighted at the Saviour’s feet;
Behold the form I love so well,
And all His tender words repeat!
2 The world shut out from all my soul,
And heaven brought in with all its bliss,
Oh! is there aught, from pole to pole,
One moment to compare with this?
3 This is the hidden life I prize--
A life of penitential love;
When most my follies I despise,
And raise my highest thoughts above;
4 When all I am I clearly see,
And freely own with deepest shame;
When the Redeemer's love to me
Kindles within a deathless flame.
5 Thus would I live till nature fail,
And all my former sins forsake;
Then rise to God within the veil,
And of eternal joys partake.
Oh, that I could forever dwell
What cheering words are these?
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 146 hymnals Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these?
Their sweetness who can tell?
In time and to eternity,
’Tis with the righteous well.
2 In ev'ry state secure,
Kept by Jehovah’s eye,
’Tis well with them while life endures,
And well when call'd to die.
3 ’Tis well when joys arise,
’Tis well when sorrows flow;
’Tis well when darkness veils the skies,
And strong temptations blow.
4 ’Tis well when on the mount
They feast on dying love;
And ’tis as well, in God’s account,
When they the furnace prove.
5 'Tis well when at His throne
They wrestle, weep, and pray;
'Tis well when at His feet they groan,
Yet bring their wants away.
6 'Tis well when Jesus calls:
"From earth and sin, arise,
Join with the hosts of virgin souls,
Made to salvation wise!"
What cheering words are these?
