Come, Holy Ghost, in love
Author: Robert II,, King of France Appears in 205 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Ghost, in love,
Shed on us from above
Thine own bright ray:
Divinely good thou art;
Thy sacred gifts impart
To gladden each sad heart;
O, come today.
2 Come, tenderest Friend, and best,
Our most delightful Guest,
With soothing power;
Rest, which the weary know,
Shade, 'mid the noontide glow,
Peace, when deep griefs overflow,
Cheer us, this hour.
3 Come, Light serene, and still
Our inmost bosoms fill;
Dwell in each breast:
We know no dawn but thine,
Send forth thy beams divine
On our dark souls to shine,
And make us blest.
4 Exalt our low desires,
Extinguish passion's fires,
Heal every wound;
Our stubborn spirits bend,
Our icy coldness end,
Our devious steps attend
While heavenward bound. Topics: Worship Holy Spirit Used With Tune: NEW HAVEN
Come, Holy Ghost, in love
In the sun, and moon, and stars
Author: Reginald Heber Appears in 66 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In the sun, and moon, and stars,
Signs and wonders have appeared;
Earth has groaned with bloody wars,
And the hearts of men have feared.
2 Soon shall ocean's hoary deep,
Tossed with stronger tempests, rise;
Darker storms the mountains sweep,
Fiercer lightnings rend the skies.
3 Dread alarms shall shake the proud,
Pale amazement, restless fear;
And amid the thunder cloud
Shall the Judge of men appear.
4 But, though from his awful face,
Heaven shall fade, and earth shall fly,
Fear not ye, his chosen race,
Your redemption draweth nigh. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Used With Tune: PLEYEL
In the sun, and moon, and stars
Take my heart, O Father, take it!
Author: Anon. Appears in 235 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Take my heart, O Father, take it!
Make and keep it all thine own;
Let thy Spirit melt and break it,
This proud heart of sin and stone.
Father, make it pure and lowly,
Fond of peace and far from strife,
Turning from the paths unholy,
Of this vain and sinful life.
2 Ever let thy grace surround it,
Strengthen it with power divine;
Till thy cords of love have bound it,
Make it to be wholly thine.
May the blood of Jesus heal it,
And its sins be all forgiven;
Holy Spirit, take and seal it,
Guide it in the path to heaven. Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Used With Tune: DEERHURST
Take my heart, O Father, take it!
Sing to the Lord, our Might
Author: Henry F. Lyte Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord, our Might,
With holy fervor sing;
Let hearts and instruments unite
To praise our heavenly King.
2 As unto them of old,
Who roamed this wilderness,
Our God is still as near his fold,
To pity and to bless.
3 Then let us open wide
Our hearts for him to fill;
And he who Israel then supplied,
Will help his Israel still. Topics: Worship Praise and Reverence of God Used With Tune: WAUGH

This is my body, which is given for you
Author: C. L. Ford Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "This is my body, which is given for you;
Do this," he said, and brake, "remembering me."
O Lamb of God, our Paschal offering true,
To us the bread of life each moment be.
2 "This is my blood, for sin's remission shed,"
He spake, and passed the cup of blessing round;
So let us drink, and, on life's fullness fed,
With heavenly joy each quickening pulse shall bound.
3 "The hour has come!" with us in peace sit down;
Thine own we are, O love us to the end!
Serve us our banquet, ere the nights dark frown
Vail from our sight the presence of our Friend.
4 Some will betray thee, "Master, is it I?"
Leaning upon thy love, we ask in fear,
Ourselves mistrusting, earnestly we cry
To thee, the strong, for strength, when sin is near. Topics: The Church Lord's Supper Used With Tune: EVENTIDE

By thy bitter agony,
By thy pangs to us unknown,
By thy spirit's parting groan,
Lord, thy presence let me see,
Manifest thyself to me.
2 Prince of life! to thee I cry:
By thy glorious majesty,
By thy triumph o'er the grave,
Meek to suffer, strong to save,
Lord, thy presence let me see,
Manifest thyself to me.
3 Lord of glory, now on high,
Hear thy needy servant's cry;
With thy love my bosom fill,
Prompt me to perform thy will;
Then thy glory I shall see,
Thou wilt bring me home to thee. Topics: The Christian Hymns for Social Worship Used With Tune: SPANISH HYMN

Nature, with all her powers shall sing
Author: Anon. Appears in 54 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Nature, with all her powers, shall sing
Her great Creator and her King;
Nor air, nor earth, nor skies, nor seas,
Deny the tribute of their praise.
2 Ye seraphs who sit near his throne,
Begin to make his glories known;
Tune high your harps, and spread the sound
Throughout creation's utmost bound.
3 O may our ardent zeal employ
Our loftiest thoughts and loudest songs!
Let there be sung, with warmest joy,
Hosanna from ten thousand tongues.
4 Yet, mighty God, our feeble frame
Attempts in vain to reach thy name;
The highest notes that angels raise
Fall far below thy glorious praise. Topics: Worship Praise and Reverence of God Used With Tune: DUKE STREET
Nature, with all her powers shall sing
Hark, the glad sound! the Saviour comes
Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 831 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark the glad sound! the Saviour comes,
The Saviour promised long;
He comes to reign on David's throne;
Lift up your joyful song.
2 He comes, the prisoner to release,
In Satan's bondage held;
The gates of brass before him burst,
The iron fetters yield.
3 He comes to usher in the morn
With his celestial ray,
And on the eyes oppressed with night
To pour eternal day.
4 He comes, the broken heart to bind,
The wounded soul to cure,
And, with the treasures of his grace,
To bless the humble poor.
5 Our glad hosannas, Prince of peace,
Thy welcome shall proclaim,
And heaven's eternal arches ring
With thy beloved name. Topics: Second Advent Executive Judgment Used With Tune: GRANDEUR
Hark, the glad sound! the Saviour comes
Our God is love, and all his saints
Author: Anon. Appears in 86 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Our God is love, and all his saints
His image bear below;
The heart with love to God inspired,
With love to man will glow.
2 Our heavenly Father, Lord, thou art,
Thy favored children we;
O may we love each other here
As we are loved by thee!
3 Heirs of the same immortal bliss,
Our hopes and fears the same;
With bonds of grace our hearts unite,
With mutual love inflame.
4 So may the vain, contentious world
See how true Christians love,
And glorify our Saviour's grace,
And seek that grace to prove. Topics: The Church Zeal and Union Used With Tune: LUCIUS
Our God is love, and all his saints
The chariot! the chariot! its wheels roll in fire
Author: Henry H. Milman Appears in 155 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The chariot! the chariot! its wheels roll in fire,
As the Lord cometh down in the pomp of his ire;
Lo, self-moving it driven on its pathway of cloud,
And the heavens with the burden of Godhead are bowed.
2 The glory! the glory! around him are poured
Mighty hosts of the angels that wait on the Lord;
And the glorified saints and the martyrs are there,
Who in triumph their palm-wreaths of victory wear.
3 The Judgment! the Judgment! the thrones are all set,
Where the Lamb and the angels and elders are met;
There all flesh is at once in the sight of the Lord,
And the doom of eternity hangs on his word.
4 O mercy! O mercy! look down from above,
Great Creator, on us thy sad children, with love;
When beneath to their darkness the wicked are driven,
May we find a reward and a mansion in heaven.
