Join all the names of love and power

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from sin Lyrics: Join all the names of love and power That ever men or angels bore, All are too mean to speak his worth, Or set lmmannel's glory forth. But O what condescending ways He takes to teach his heav'nly grace My eyes with joy and wonder see What forms of love he bears for me. [The Angel of the cov'nant stands With his commission in his hands, Sent from his Father's milder throne, To make the great salvation known.] [Great Prophet! let me bless thy name; By thee the joyful tidings came Of wrath appeased, of sins forgiv'n, Of hell subdued, and peace with heav'u.] [My bright Example and my Guide, I would be walking near thy side; O let me never run astray, Nor follow the forbidden way!] [I love my Shepherd, he shall keep My wand'ring soul among his sheep; He feeds his flock, he calls their names, And in his bosom bears the lambs.] [My Surety undertakes my cause, Answering his Father's broken laws: Behold my soul at freedom set, My Surety paid the dreadful debt.] [Jesus, my great High Priest, has died; I seek no sacrifice beside; His blood did once for all atone, And now it pleads before the throne.] [My Advocate appears on high, The Father lays his thunder by; Not all that earth or hell can say Shall turn my Father's heart away.] [My Lord, my Conqueror, and my King! Thy sceptre and thy sword I sing; Thine is the vict'ry, and I sit A joyful subject at thy feet.] [Aspire, my soul, to glorious deeds, The Captain of salvation leads; March on, nor fear to win the day, Though death and hell obstruct the way.] [Should death, and hell, and powers unknown, Put all their forms of mischief on, I shall be safe; for Christ displays Salvation in more sovereign ways.] Scripture: Psalm 69

Redeeming Love

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Sin Salvation from First Line: Praise the Lord, for He is good Lyrics: 1 Praise the Lord, for He is good, For His mercies ever sure From eternity have stood, To eternity endure; Let His ransomed people raise Songs to their Redeemer's praise. 2 From captivity released, From the south and from the north, From the west and from the east, In His love He brought them forth, Ransomed out of ev'ry land From the adversary's hand. 3 Wand'ring in the wilderness, Far they roamed the desert way, Found no settled dwelling-place Where in peace secure to stay, Till with thirst and hunger pressed Courage sank within their breast. 4 To Jehovah then they cried In their trouble, and He saved; He Himself became their guide, Led them to the rest they craved By a pathway straight and sure, To a city strong, secure. 5 Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord Who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Longing souls He satisfies, Hungry hearts with good supplies. Scripture: Psalm 107 Used With Tune: HALLE

Whence has the world her magic power?

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: The Sting of Death is Sin Lyrics: 1 Whence has the world her magic power? Why deem we death a foe? Recoil from weary life's best hour, And covet longer wo? 2 The cause is conscience--conscience oft Her tale of guilt renews; Her voice is terrible, though soft, And dread of death ensues. 3 Then anxious to be longer spar'd, Man mourns his fleeting breath; All evils then seem light, compar'd With the approach of death. 4 'Tis judgment shakes him--there's the fear That prompts the wish to stay: He has incurr'd a long arrear, And must despair to pay. 5 Pay!--follow Christ, and all is paid; His death your peace ensures; Think on the grave where he was laid, And calm descend to ours.

Thy mercy, Lord, extend to me

Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Prayers Of a Sinner to obtain Forgiveness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Thy Mercy, Lord, extend to me, As thou wert ever kind; Let me, oppress'd with Loads of guilt, Thy wonted Mercy find: Wash off my foul Offence, And cleanse me from my Sin; For I confess my Crime, and see How very great my Guilt hath been. 2 Against thee, O my GOD, alone, And only in thy Sight, Have I transgress'd, and tho' condemn'd, Must own thy Judgment right: In Guilt each Part was form'd, Of all this sinful Frame; In Sin I was conceiv'd and born, The hapless Heir of Guilt and Shame. 3 Yet thou, whose ever searching Eye, Does inward Truth require, In secret did'st with Wisdom's Laws My tender Soul inspire. With Hyssop purge me, LORD, And so I clean shall be; I shall with Snow in Whiteness vie, When wahs'd and purify'd by thee. 4 Make me, O LORD, to hear with Joy, Thy kind forgiving Voice; That so the Bones which thou hast broke, May with fresh Strength rejoice. Blot out my crying Sins, Nor me in Anger view; Create in me a Heart that's clean, A just and upright Mind renew. Part II 5 Withdraw not thou thy Help, O LORD! Nor cast me from thy Sight; Nor let thy Holy Spirit take Its everlasting Flight. The Joy thy Favour gives, Let me again obtain; And thy free Spirit's firm Support, My feeble fainting Soul sustain. 6 So I thy just and righteous Ways To Sinners will impart; Whilst my Advice shall wicked Men, To thy just Laws convert. My Guilt of Blood remove, My Saviour and my GOD; And my glad Tongue shall loudly tell, Thy Truth and righteous Acts abroad. 7 Do thou, O LORD, unlock my Lips, With Sorrow clos'd, and Shame; So shall my Mouth thy wond'rous Praise, To all the World proclaim. Could Sacrifice atone, Whole Flocks and Herds should die; But on such Off'rings, LORD, thou do'st Disdain to cast a gracious Eye. 8 A humble Spirit is alone, By GOD most highly priz'd; By him a contrite broken Heart, Shall never be despis'd. Let Sion ever be Of thy good Will assur'd; Let thy own City flourish long, By strong and lofty Walls secur'd. 9 'Tis there the Righteous shall attend, And pleasing Tribute pay; And Sacrifice of choicest Kind, Upon thy Altar lay. Scripture: Psalm 51 Used With Tune: [Thy mercy, Lord, extend to me]
