With Joy We Hail the Sacred Day
Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7529 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. With joy we hail the sacred day,
Which God has called His own;
With joy the summons we obey
To worship at His throne.
2. Thy chosen temple, Lord, how fair!
As here Thy servants throng
To breathe the humble, fervent prayer
And pour the grateful song.
3. Spirit of grace, O deign to dwell
Within Thy Church below!
Make her in holiness excel,
With pure devotion glow.
4. Let peace within her walls be found;
Let all her sons unite;
To spread with grateful zeal around
Her clear and shining light.
5. Great God, we hail the sacred day
Which Thou hast called Thine own;
With joy the summons we obey
To worship at Thy throne. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

I Am The Life
Author: Adele M. Harper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8921 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: "I am the life" — "I am the life" Lyrics: 1 "I am the life" — "I am the life,"
Oh, gladsome, glorious thought,
The end, the end of mortal strife,
’Tis mine by gift, not bought.
2 Eternal life, eternal life,
A priceless boon from God;
A precious gift, O joyous life,
’Tis here, ’tis mine, unsought.
3 "O come to Me," the Savior said—
The words of life I give;
I am of life the living bread,
Eat all of ye and live.
4 I take, I eat the words He spoke
With thankful heart and true;
I feel His love, as thus He broke
The bread for me and you. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

With shouts of joy therefore.

And help us sing our song. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN
Awake With Joyful Strains Of Mirth
The Winds Were Howling O'er The Deep
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12063 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: The winds were howling o’er the deep Lyrics: 1 The winds were howling o’er the deep,
Each wave a watery hill;
The Savior wakened from His sleep,
He spake, and all was still.
2 The madman in a tomb had made
His mansion of despair;
Woe to the traveler who strayed
With heedless footstep there!
3 The chains hung broken from his arm,
Such strength can hell supply;
And fiendish hate, and fierce alarm
Flashed from his hollow eye.
4 He met that glance so thrilling sweet,
He heard those accents mild,
And, melting at Messiah’s feet,
Wept like a weanèd child.
5 Oh madder than the raving man!
Oh deafer than the sea!
How long the time since Christ began
To call in vain on me?
6 He called me when my thoughtless prime
Was early ripe to ill;
I passed from folly on to crime,
And yet He called me still.
7 He called me in the time of dread,
When death was full in view;
I trembled on my feverish bed,
And rose to sin anew.
8 Yet could I hear Him once again,
As I have heard of old,
Methinks He should not call in vain
His wanderer to the fold.
9 Oh Thou, that every thought canst know,
And answer every prayer;
Oh give me sickness, want, or woe,
But snatch me from despair!
10 My struggling will by grace control,
Renew my broken vow!
What blessèd light breaks on my soul?
Oh God! I hear Thee now. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

Attend, My People, To My Law
Author: Thomas Sternhold Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12674 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Attend, my people, to my law;
Thereto give thou an ear;
The words that from my mouth proceed
Attentively do hear.
2 My mouth shall speak a parable,
And sayings dark of old;
The same which we have heard and known,
Ev’n as our fathers told.
3 We will not from their children hide
The wonders done by Thee;
To generations yet to come
These things declare will we.
4 The praises of the Lord our God,
And His almighty strength,
The wondrous works that He hath done,
We will show forth at length.
5 His testimony and His law
In Israel He did place,
And charged our fathers it to show
To their succeeding race;
6 That so the race which was to come
These things might learn and know;
And sons unborn, who should arise,
Might to their sons them show:
7 That they might set their hope in God,
And suffer not to fall
His mighty works out of their mind,
But keep His precepts all:
8 And might not, like their fathers, be
A stiff rebellious race;
A race not right in heart with God
Whose spirit faithless was.
9 The sons of Ephraim, who nor bows
Nor other arms did lack,
When as the day of battle was,
Yet faintly turnèd back.
10 They broke God’s covenant, and refused
In His commands to go;
His works and wonders they forgot,
Which He to them did show.
11 Things marvelous He brought to pass;
Their fathers them beheld
Within the land of Egypt done,
Yea, even Zoan’s field.
12 By Him divided was the sea,
He led them through the flood;
The waters on each side He raised,
Till as a heap they stood.
13 With cloud by day, with light of fire
All night He did them guide.
In desert, rocks He cleft, and drink,
As from great depths, supplied.
14 He also from the rock brought streams,
Like floods made waters run.
Yet, sinning more, in desert they
Provoked the Highest One.
15 For in their heart they tempted God,
And, speaking with mistrust,
They greedily did meat require
To satisfy their lust.
16 Against the Lord Himself they spake,
And, murmuring, said thus,
A table in the wilderness
Can God prepare for us?
17 Behold, He smote the rock, and thence
Came streams and waters great;
But can He give His people bread?
And send them flesh to eat?
18 Jehovah heard, His wrath arose:
Then kindled was a flame
On Jacob, and on Israel
His indignation came.
19 For they believed not God, nor trust
In His salvation had;
Though clouds above He did command,
And Heav’n’s doors open made,
20 And manna rained on them, and gave
Them corn of Heav’n to eat.
Man angels’ food did eat; to them
He to the full sent meat.
21 He in the heaven also caused
An eastern wind to blow;
And by His power He let out
The southern wind to go.
22 Then flesh He rained on them like dust
Which cannot numbered be;
And feathered fowls in numbers vast
Like sands along the sea.
23 At His command, amid their camp
The flesh in showers fell;
On every side it fell about
The tents where they did dwell.
24 So they did eat abundantly,
And had of meat their fill;
For He did give to them what was
Their own desire and will.
25 They from their lust had not estranged
Their heart and their desire;
But while the meat was in their mouths,
Which they did so require,
26 God’s wrath upon them came, and slew
The fattest of them all;
And so the choice of Israel,
O’erthrown by death, did fall.
27 Yet after all the Lord had done
They still went on in sin;
Nor did believe, although His works
So wonderful had been.
28 He therefore did in vanity
Their days consume and waste;
And by His wrath their wretched years
Away in trouble passed.
29 But when He slew them, then they did
To seek Him show desire;
Yea, they returned, and after God
Did earnestly enquire.
30 And that the Lord had been their Rock,
They did remember then;
And that the high almighty God
Had their Redeemer been.
31 Yet with their mouth they flattered Him,
And with their tongues they lied;
Their heart was not sincere; they from
His covenant turned aside.
32 But, full of pity, He forgave
Their sin, nor did them slay;
Nor stirred up all His wrath, but oft
His anger turned away.
33 For that they were but fading flesh
To mind He did recall;
A wind that passeth soon away,
And ne’er returns at all.
34 How often in the wilderness
Did they provoke His wrath!
How often grieved Him, as they marched
Along their desert path!
35 Yea, turning back, they tempt the Lord,
And and boldly limits place
About the high and holy One—
The God of Israel’s race.
36 And they remembered not His hand
Nor yet the noted day
When He redeemed them from the foe
Who sought them for his prey.
37 Nor how great signs in Egypt land
He openly had wrought;
What miracles in Zoan’s field
His hand to pass had brought.
38 How He their rivers and their lakes
Turned everywhere to blood;
That neither man nor beast could drink
Of standing lake or flood.
39 Devouring flies, of divers sorts,
The Lord among them brought;
And swarms of frogs o’er all the land,
Which great destruction wrought.
40 He to the caterpillar gave
The fruits of all their soil;
He gave the labors of their hands
To be the locust’s spoil.
41 Their vines with hail, their sycamores
He with the frost did blast:
Their beasts to hail He gave; their flocks
Hot thunderbolts did waste.
42 He cast upon them anger fierce;
To burning wrath gave vent;
In indignation troubled them
By evil angels sent.
43 He did not spare their soul from death
But for His wrath made way;
And to the fearful pestilence
He gave their life a prey.
44 And over Egypt’s land He smote
Their first born, and their pride,
Till everywhere in tents of Ham
Their chief of strength had died.
45 But forth from these like sheep He brought
His own, His chosen band,
And led His people like a flock
Across the desert land.
46 And on their journey He them led,
Secure from every fear,
But by the sea’s o’erwhelming waves
Their enemies covered were.
47 To borders of His holy place
The Lord His people brought,
Ev’n to the mountain which for them
His own right hand had bought.
48 The nations which in Canaan dwelt,
He also by His hand,
Before His people’s face, expelled
Beyond their native land;
49 Which for inheritance to them
By line He did divide,
And made the tribes of Israel
Within their tents abide.
50 But God most high they did provoke,
They tempted Him again;
His testimonies to observe
Their will did not incline.
51 But, like their fathers, they turned back,
In faithlessness and pride,
And like a false, deceitful bow,
They all were turned aside.
52 Because to anger they provoked
The Lord with places high,
And with their graven images
Moved Him to jealousy.
53 When God heard this, He angry was,
And much loathed Israel then:
So Shiloh’s tent He left, the tent
Which He had placed with men.
54 And He His strength delivered o’er
To long captivity;
He left His glory in the hand
Of His proud enemy.
55 His people also to the sword
In anger o’er He turned:
Against His own inheritance
His wrath so fiercely burned.
56 The fire consumed their choice young men;
Their maids no marriage had;
And when their priests fell by the sword,
Their wives no mourning made.
57 But then the Lord arose, as one
That doth from sleep awake;
And like a giant that, by wine
Refreshed, a shout doth make.
58 And on the backs of fleeing foes
He caused His strokes to fall,
And to reproach perpetual
He put His enemies all.
59 Moreover, Joseph’s tent He spurned,
Nor Ephraim’s tribe approved;
But Judah’s tent Jehovah chose,
The Zion Mount he loved.
60 And like the firm and lofty hills
He built His holy place;
Yea, strong as earth’s foundation fast,
He gave it changeless base.
61 Of David as His servant then
His sovereign choice did make,
And him, from out the folds of sheep,
The Lord was pleased to take.
62 From waiting on the suckling ewes,
He brought him forth to feed
His Israel, His inheritance,
His people, Jacob’s seed.
63 So with integrity of heart
He did them wisely feed;
And with His skillfulness of hands
He did them safely lead. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

Jesus, The Word Of Mercy Give
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12736 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the word of mercy give,
And let it swiftly run,
And let the priests themselves believe,
And put salvation on.
2 Clothed in the Spirit’s holiness
May all Thy people prove
The plenitude of Gospel grace
The joy of perfect love.
3 Jesus, let all Thy lovers shine,
Illustrious, as the sun;
And bright with borrowed rays divine,
Their glorious circuit run.
4 Beyond the reach of mortals spread
Their light where’er they go;
Heavenly influence may they shed
On all the world below.
5 As giants may they run their race,
Exulting in their might:
As burning luminaries chase
The gloom of hellish night.
6 As the bright Son of Righteousness
Their healing wings display;
And let their luster still increase
Unto the perfect day. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

I Ask My Dying Savior Dear
Author: John Berridge Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13707 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 I ask my dying Savior dear
To set me on His heart;
And if my Jesus fix me there,
Nor life, nor death shall part.
2 As Aaron bore upon his breast
The names of Jacob’s sons,
So bear my name among the rest
Of Thy dear chosen ones.
3 Yea, set me as a precious seal
Of covenant grace divine,
Which may the covenant love reveal,
And mark me truly Thine.
4 And let the seal be stamped clear,
With holiness in view,
That I may bear Thine image fair,
And others read it, too.
5 But seal me also on Thine arm,
Or yet I am not right;
I need Thy love to ward off harm,
And need Thy shoulder’s might.
6 This double seal makes all things sure,
And keeps me safe and well;
Thy heart and shoulder will secure
From all the host of hell. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN

Sweet Is The Friendly Voice Which Speaks
Author: Thomas Jervis Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #15682 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the friendly voice which speaks
The words of life and peace;
Which bids the penitent rejoice,
And sin and sorrow cease.
2 No healing balm on earth like this
Can cheer the contrite heart;
No flattering dreams of earthly bliss
Such pure delight impart.
3 Thou still art merciful and kind;
Thy mercy, Lord, reveal:
The broken heart ’tis Thou canst bind,
The wounded spirit heal.
4 Let Thy bright presence, Lord, restore
Peace to my anxious breast:
Conduct me in the path that leads
To everlasting rest. Languages: English Tune Title: BROWN
